The purpose of this study is to present models for evaluation and selection of Electronic Commerce systems suppliers. The Major concern of management is that almost all decision problems have multiple, usually conflicting, criteria. The fuzzified multi-objective programming models are given to accommodate the aspiration level and satisfaction level of decision makers. The proposed models are classified into three types, that is, min-operator. additive and pre-emptive priority. Numerical Examples illustrating each type of model are presented and the implications of these models are discussed.

In the recent environment of globalization where fierce competitions exist between manufacturers, SRM(Supplier Relationship Management) plays important role in the strategies of companies, and managements of companies try their best efforts in establishing the strategy to accomplish the innovative relationship between supply chain channels. The structure of the partnerships we develop with not only customers but also suppliers will in many cases determine the degree of success of the relationship. A successful partnership provides an opportunity for shared risk while maximizing the opportunity for mutual success whether it's with supplier. To follow this paper show how SLV(Supplier Lifetime Value) can be used to structure the supplier in automotive part manufacturer, This method of selection is described, and a detailed example of how SLY can be used and allocation of order quantity for the selected suppliers also are provided.

GE, as well as Motorola, TI, HP, ABB, and other companies, which have several suppliers from all of the world, adopted an innovation program called 6 Sigma, in order to make fundamental changes in the way they operated to fulfill customers' expectations and to evaluate and control their suppliers. Recently, as the 6 Sigma is being recognized as elementary and strategic means to improve the effectiveness of SCM(Supply Chain Management), there may be few business who does not operate 6 Sigma innovation program. Under such a circumstance, this study is aimed at expediting 6 Sigma pervasion by considering supplier evaluating scheme. It is recognized that this evaluating mechanism can be used as a great tool for the everlasting run of 6 Sigma in Korea.

We consider an integrated supply chain model in which multiple suppliers replenish items for a single buyer's demand. Also the buyer specifies a basic replenishment cycle and the suppliers replenish the items only at those time intervals. Namely, we propose a model to study and analyze the benefit by coordinating supply chain inventories through the basic replenishment cycle time. The objective of this model is to minimize the total relevant annual cost of the integrated inventory model. After developing proposed coordinated models, we suggest heuristics for searching the solutions of our models. Finally, numerical and computational experiments for each policy are carried out to evaluate the benefits of those models and the compensation policy is addressed to share the benefits.

This paper presents a mathematical model for a class of vertical integration decisions. The problem structure of interest consists of raw material vendors, components suppliers, components processing plants, final product (assembly) plants and external components buyers. Economic feasibility of operating components plants instead of keeping outside suppliers is our major concern. The model also determines assignment of product lines and production volumes to each open plant considering the cost impacts of economies of scale and plant complexity. The problem formulation leads to a concave, mixed integer mathematical program. Given the state of the art of nonlinear programming techniques, it is often not possible to find global optima for reasonably sized such problems. We developed an optimization solution algorithm within the framework of Benders decomposition for the case of a piecewise linear concave cost function. It is shown that our algorithm generates optimal solutions efficiently.

With every passing month a number of new virtual enterprises emerge on the internet. Many companies have responded to the idea of distributed manufacturing in which the value adding activities comprising a finished product are dispersed geographically in a remote place. This study suggests an idea for selecting suppliers in a distributed manufacturing environment which enables machining companies to share their capacities. A mathematical model is constructed to show how to minimize the sum of the operation and transportation costs based on alternative process plans considering several kinds of operation characteristics in the real world. Four heuristic algorithms are developed to get an optimal or near-optimal solution using tabu search since the model is proven NP-hard. Example problems are tested to illustrate their procedure and performance.

With enormous changes in market condition, firms try to collaborate with their transaction partners. Recently, the diffusion of the Internet has made it possible for firms to directly collaborate with their partners. Accordingly, the importance of the Collaborative Commerce( C-Commerce) based on the Internet and IT has been emphasized. The literature in relational marketing and strategic alliance, however, has focused on the relational characteristics among firms. Therefore, the fundamental objective of this study is to investigate whether C-Commerce can enhance the positive relationships among firms. Based on theoretical and empirical research, some meaningful discussions can be made. First. the asymmetric commitment between buyers and suppliers decreases the C-Commerce utilization. Second, when specific investment is made to facilitate transactions, firms try to trade efficiently and depend on partners in a long-term period.

The purpose of this study is to propose a new process model for architects and suppliers in AEC(Architectural, Engineering and Construction) industry, which comes from its utilization of a distributed database. Information used by participants of this process is not held in one singular application sewer, but in tile databases of multiple participants. This study addresses the problem of coping with dynamic information changes that architects face when designing with increasingly time-sensitive product information from multiple suppliers. It also describes the new distributed architecture for design representation, and outlines a corresponding process model to address the needs architectural designers during design and procurement phases. The feasibility of the process was tested in a prototype system that combines existing technologies, which allows for an objects transfer from the Web to the CAD application.

This research aimed to understand the relationship between comparative superiority elements of the supply chain activities for food supplies in the hotel industry. The samples are obtained from exclusive hotels located in the Seoul area. A statistic package program called SPSS was employed to conduct reliability analysis, factor analysis, t-test, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. Results of a multiple regression analysis between supply chain management and food production strategies were as follows; company's characters and cooperative relations with suppliers had a significant impact on cost while quality was significantly affected by company's characters, information system, cooperative relations with suppliers, and supply chain activities. It was revealed that all factors had a significant impact on flexibility and delivery date.

Recently, determinants in the construction market are not suppliers' choices but customers' various needs. One of the main interests about the space design is the flexibility. Though those are the choices of users to modify space structure, the potential degree of flexibility is predetermined by the providers. In suppliers' view, it is consuming in financial and technical aspects to cater the apartments qualifying maximum flexibility. To modify these differences, the reasonable range of applicable customers's requirement about flexibility in apartment should be determined. Then, the types of flexibility in apartments should be classified. The purpose of this Study are classified the flexibility of support in apartment by the analyzing the remodeling requirement of apartment residents, and provided prerequisites to create flexible spaces by case application.
