Sustavsko-dinamicki pristup upravljanju lancem opskrbe

Supply chains create added value to those who organize them. The value is reflected in additional revenue over the network organizing cost. The interferences of positive and negative feedback circles derived from the cause-effect structure are the basis for studying the behaviour patterns of the supply chain system. Transport is one of the material flow regulators in the supply chain. Therefore, this paper approaches the supply chain considering it as a system. The first step is to derive and to define as well, the basic features of the supply chain, which is already done in the first part of this work. The second part presents a general cause consequence structure model of supply chain system. The above mentioned brings new contribution toward understanding the cause and consequent effects among the elements of the supply chain (tactical level) and between supply chain competitors (strategic level) as well. Based on this model it is possible to determine the required transport capacity to supply stakeholders from the supply chain.
