Information Sharing among Members of the Supply Chain from the Perspective of Game

Abstract

The competition among enterprises has gradually become the competition between supply chains, and it is more and more important for the cooperation among members of the supply chain to improve supply chain performance. Information sharing is an important way of cooperation among members of supply chain, which attaches great significance for the integration of the supply chain. With the development of information technology, inter-organizational information systems (IOS) have become an important means for information sharing among members of supply chain. IOS comes across organizational boundaries, whose investment and distribution of the income relates to the interests of all members involved in the supply chain, so the establishment of IOS includes many factors. From the perspective of game, the behavior that the supply chain establishes IOS for the establishment information sharing is analyzed. Through the creation of static, dynamic and incomplete information game model, it is believed that the prospects for cooperation, technological progress and the role of example is an important driving force for supply chain members’ enforcing information sharing.
