Abstract

In order for rapid, accurate and low-cost information exchange among supply chain enterprises during logistics business operation, this paper puts forward solution scheme to construct public logistics supply chain information exchange platform. Based on service-oriented framework, the platform adopts heterogeneous data exchange engine and data exchange agent to perform certain services functions such as end-to-end data exchange of heterogeneous information system in supply-chain enterprises, zero-development access, etc. The system test result shows function and performance of this platform can completely satisfy the requirements of logistics supply-chain enterprises information exchange and the system has the perfect openness and scalability.

I. INTRODUCTION

A  complete  logistics  process  usually  contains  order processing, storage, transportation, distribution and customs declaration.   The   operation   involves   many   supply-chain companies including factory, consignor, consignee,   storing company,  transportation  agent, customs.  It  has  become  an essential problem to improve service quality as well as work efficiency of logistics enterprises  and  reduce logistics cost on how to perform rapid and accurate logistics information exchange and share between various supply-chain enterprises.  There  are  two  types  of  information  exchange between logistics supply-chain enterprises. One of them is to adopt  traditional  methods  to  transmit  information  such  as telephone,  fax,  email,  etc.  Information  will  be  input  to information  system  of  various  supply-chain  enterprises  by artificial means.

V. CONCLUSIONS

This paper analyzes the defects of traditional supply chain logistics operation, fully considers modern global supply chain management environment and studies new features as well as operating mode in logistics management and control. Furthermore, starting from sales management in modern enterprises, it establishes a novel enterprise sales management information system under supply chain management mode. Based on service-oriented  framework, this platform uses heterogeneous data exchange engine and data exchange agent to realize end-to-end data exchange of heterogeneous information system in supply chain enterprises  and zero-development access.
