  • Abstract
    With the logistics outsourcing more widely used, growing number of third-party logistics(TPL) were introduced to the VMI (vendor-managed inventory) implementation strategy, in this mode, how to effectively integrate the logistics and information flow in the supply chain has become an important research topic. Due to the complexity and a certain randomness of this mode, this paper uses the generalized operator model (GOM) method combined the large-scale system and intelligent control and analyses the information transmission flow in this mode. In accordance with the decomposition and synthesis approach to first establish the coarse-grained GOM and further decompose level by level, according to each decision-making point or the control link to further establish the finer-grained GOM, finally combining the inventory information sharing to construct multi-granularity GOM.
