(North South University, 2016-12) MM Nawaz Ameen; Mohammad Mahboob Rahman
Processes and management of businesses have gone through phenomenal changes as a result of technological revolutions in recent years. One invention, the Internet, has caused businesses to look at their way of doing business again and again to make things more efficient and effective. One of the areas affected by Internet is Supply Chain Management (SCM). Therefore Electronic Supply Chain Management (E-SCM) has become an increasingly important topic to businesses. Business entities are able to interact real-time with the World Wide Web (WWW) service in the Internet and exchange information transparently. This allows trading partners a very improved way of communications resulting quicker diagnosis, feedback, and solutions to inventory and customer service problems. Hence E-SCM is born. This paper investigates the current web initiatives of three different industries, Transportation, Pharmaceuticals, and Banking, in Bangladesh and attempts to find out how successful these industries are using the internet to integrate their supply chain. This research uses a qualitative experimental design approach by comparing across a variety of factors affecting E-SCM for a group of selected companies from each industry mentioned above.
