MANAGEMENT OF INTEGRATED SUPPLY CHAINS FOR THE EFFICIENCY OF FULFILLMENT OF PERISHABLE PRODUCT

Abstract

Perishable agricultural products are agricultural products that have very short shelf-life,
such as fruits and vegetables. One way to maintain product quality is to adjust the supply
as needed. In order to maintain the supply of perishable products as needed, an efficient
supply chain management system is needed, which can integrate all supply chain
information to manage supply availability as needed. This research tries to build an
integrated supply chain information system that involves all members of the supply chain:
producers (farmers), distribution centers, retailers , stores and customers. Members of
the supply chain can manage information related to themselves, and can view information
from other supply chain members when necessary. Given this integrated information,
planting schedule, planting product selection, harvesting schedule, and reports related to
demand fulfillment can be done more easily
