Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR VISUALLY REPRESENTING A SUPPLY CHAIN
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2000009529
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A computer-related system for visually representing a supply chain includes a supply chain physical window (12). The supply chain physical window (12) displays a plurality of supply chain entities (24), at least one supply chain bar (28) adjacent a corresponding supply chain entity (24), and at least one connector (26) between two of the supply chain entities (24). The supply chain bar (28) provides data related to the adjacent supply chain entity (24), and the connector (26) represents product flow between the two supply chain entities (24).
