REPAC

It is created by AMR Research company in 1998. Actually it is the first model in which both the horizontal data stream obviously appears in a supply management chain, and vertical — between different levels of information systems.

The REPAC model is focused on solving of tasks, designed not only to maintain internal balance CIM PERA (), but also to correlate information from the external environment to the processes happening in all supply chain, to develop together with suppliers and clients of strategy of optimal use of resources. In its framework the fact that in the market environment not the separate enterprises, but the whole supply chains including in the structure several enterprises compete became obvious.
