Abstract
An e-supply chain is the flow of materials, information, money, and services from raw material suppliers through factories and warehouses to the end customers. A supply chain also includes the organizations and processes that create and deliver products, information, and services to the end customers. The term supply chain comes from the concept of linking together different partnering organizations. Simply put, a supply chain involves activities that take place during the entire product life cycle. In reality, a supply chain is more than that, as it also includes the movement of information and money and the procedures that support the movement of a product or a service.
