Abstract
More extensive enterprise cooperation is an effective means to increase the competitiveness of shipbuilding companies in the current distributed manufacturing environment. Most cross-enterprise collaborative processes for shipbuilding projects have been widely concerned. However, the symmetry and cooperativity among the order decision-making process is rarely involved. A key issue for decision makers is to balance the interests of each symmetric participant and realize the consistent decision-making for the order. Existing order decision-making methods in the shipbuilding industry are low efficiency. The aim of this paper is to provide an assistant decision-making method to support effective order decision-making and multi-party cooperation for the multi-wining negotiation objectives. To solve this problem, a collaborative order decision-making framework based on decision support system (DSS) and multi-agent system (MAS) theory is presented, simulating the collaborative order decision-making process, and bridging the order decision-making with production scheduling. Then, a multi-stage negotiation method is provided to solve the distributed and symmetric order decision-making problem, and an illustrative example is conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness and rationality of the methods. Finally, an application case using a prototype system will be reported as a result.

Summary
ETO (Engineering-to-Order production mode) is the most remarkable feature in shipbuilding industry [1]. The manufacturing environment is becoming much more distributed with the rapid development of globalization [4] In such a market environment, it is an inevitable choice for shipbuilding enterprises to increase the competitiveness for order by more extensive cross-enterprise cooperation. The symmetry and cooperativity among the order decision-making process is rarely involved, which caught our attention. In the order decision-making process, the shipowners submit shipbuilding orders to the general contractor from time to time according to market demand, and submit sub-orders of the key equipment/system/technology package to the strategic suppliers. The general contractor and strategic suppliers need to decide whether to accept the orders and the Symmetry 2021, 13, 1305 key equipment/system/technology package to the strategic suppliers.
