摘要
The emergence of E-commerce technologies has created innumerable opportunities for businesses to develop and streamline their supply chains. Electronic data interchange (EDI) has been used to facilitate business-to-business communication and coordination among supply chain partners. The key to managing a supply chain, however is to view it as a single entity-and not simply as a series of one-to-one links between firms along the chain. Accordingly, there are problems with the use of EDI in supply chain management (SCM). The benefits that E-commerce technologies have to offer towards developing and maintaining a truly holistic approach to SCM are now being realized. This paper first delves into problems with the use of EDI in SCM. The main thrust is to show how E-commerce technologies can help overcome these problems and effectively be used in SCM. It ends by identifying some managerial and technical issues corporations will face in order to e-enable their SCM.
