Dynamic Modeling and Simulation of How Information Sharing Influences Supply Chain Performance

With the growing intensity of cooperation, the partners in the manufacturing supply chain (SC) raise stricter requirements for information sharing (IS) within the SC, which has been an effective capability to improve the performance of manufacturing SC. To reveal the influence of IS on SC performanc...

description With the growing intensity of cooperation, the partners in the manufacturing supply chain (SC) raise stricter requirements for information sharing (IS) within the SC, which has been an effective capability to improve the performance of manufacturing SC. To reveal the influence of IS on SC performance, this paper firstly carries out a theoretical analysis on the influencing factors of IS, SC integration and SC performance, and builds a theoretical model of the IS’s impacting on SC performance. Next, valid index data were obtained by investigating typical manufacturing enterprises in Yangtze River Delta region of China.
