Motivation, problem area
• SMEs, should be more agile, self-sustainable and responsive to the changes in the supply chain– should be also addressed by the entire chain jointly
• The supply chain partners should collaborate more effectively realizing the “the network is the business” vision
• The distributed intelligence of multiple trading partners needs to be collaboratively exploited in the planning and fulfillment of customer demand in the supply chain
• Knowledge is the main instrument to drive and support collaboration
Workshop 6g, 23 October 2008 eChallenges e-2008 Copyright 2008 <ıSURF>
Research Objectives
• Do the European companies especially SMEs have the necessary infrastructure ready to collect the real-time supply chain visibility data– iSURF open Smart product Infrastructure
• Are supply chain collaboration processes ready to be deployed in integration to existing enterprise legacy systems? – iSURF Service Oriented Collaborative Supply Chain Planning Process
Definition and Execution Platform
• Is there a standard representation model for exchanging planning data across multiple domains?– iSURF Semantic Interoperability Service Utility
• Do we have necessary infrastructure to enable dynamic transient supply chain relationships to let the European SMEs be agile and ready to react changing requirements of the supply chain? – iSURF Global Data Synchronization and Transitory Collaboration Service Utility

Service Oriented Collaborative Supply Chain Planning Process Definition and Execution Platform
• Collaborative Planning, Forecast and Replenishment (CPFR) Guidelines– By VICS (Voluntary Inter-industry Commerce Standard)– A reference model providing a general framework for the collaborative
aspects of planning, forecasting and replenishment processes• formalizes the processes between two trading partners used to agree
upon a joint plan and forecast, monitor success through replenishment, and recognize and respond to any exceptions
• Regularizes efficient exchange of forecast data– Advantages
• Reduced forecast error• Increased sales• Shorter replenishment lead times• Visibility into consumer buying trends / patterns
Workshop 6g, 23 October 2008 eChallenges e-2008 Copyright 2008 <ıSURF>
•Collect/analyze POS data •Identify planned events (promotions, holidays)•New products/changes•Inventory strategies•DC Withdrawals•Capacity limitations•Manufacturer’s historical demands/shipments•Item management data
Workshop 6g, 23 October 2008 eChallenges e-2008 Copyright 2008 <ıSURF>
Successful CPFR Applications
• Based on “Euopean CPFR Insights” report• Pilot applications for Collaborative planning
– Condis, Delhaize, Elgeka, Eqos, Heinz, Hellas Spar Veropoulos, Henkel, JDA, Johnson &Johnson, Ketjuetu, Kimberley-Clark, Kraft, Marks & Spencer, Masterfoods, Nestlé, ONIA-NET, Procter & Gamble, SCA, Superdrug, Syncra
– involved companies in collaborative planning activities achieved 15% increase in forecast accuracy, reduced their inventory by 13.3% whilst increasing on-shelf availability by 7%
• eChO project of STMicroElectronics aiming to optimize the supply chain planning, – inventory levels have dropped from four weeks to two weeks for both
ST and its trading partners– contract costs were reduced by 50 percent, and 80 percent of all
manual transactions were eliminated
Workshop 6g, 23 October 2008 eChallenges e-2008 Copyright 2008 <ıSURF>
Disadvantages of CPFR
• Deployment of CPFR processes within a supply chain consortium is too costly and labor intensive– A lot of optionalities, many different realizations of the process possible– iSURF will provide CPFR building blocks for binary collaborations– Collaboration processes can be created graphically reusing these building
blocks• CPFR does not mandate the messaging standards to be used in the
collaboration process Hampers the scale of CPFR processes– iSURF will support CPFR through Interoperability Service Utility
• CPFR is technology independent: – It does not provide any guidelines on how the internal planning processes
mostly implemented by legacy enterprise planning systems will be integrated with the joint CPFR collaboration process
– iSURF will enable integration with Legacy Application through SOA

iSURF Semantic Interoperability Service Utility
• Various standard initiatives addressing the standardization of communication in exchanging the supply chain planning information in different domains
– RosettaNet, OAGIS, CIDX, GS1 eCOM (including GS1 EANCOM EDI messages and GS1 BMS XML messages)
• When companies involving in more than one supply chain need to exchange this planning information across multiple domains, we face an interoperability problem to be addressed
Workshop 6g, 23 October 2008 eChallenges e-2008 Copyright 2008 <ıSURF>
UN/CEFACT Core Components Technical Specification
• Traditionally, standards for the exchange of business data have been focused on static message definitions that have not enabled a sufficient degree of interoperability or flexibility A more flexible and interoperable way of standardizing Business Semantics is
required
• The Core Components methodology provides a way to identify, capture and maximize the re-use of business information to support and enhance information interoperability across multiple business situations
• All semantic standardization is done in a syntax-neutral fashion
• Problem– UN/CEFACT Core Components Library (CCL) 07A– Universal Business Language (UBL) 2.0– Open Applications Group Integration Specification (OAGIS) 9.0– Global Standards One (GS1) XML
• All of them use CCTS differently!!• Results in different schemas for nearly same information content
– Degregates interoperability

iSURF Contribution to Standards
• OASIS Semantic Support for Electronic Business Document Interoperability (SET) Technical Committee– http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=set
– Requirements for Semantic Support for Electronic Business Document Interoperability
– Draft Deliverable for Semantic Support for Electronic Business Document Interoperability
• The SET XSD-OWL tool converts a CCTS based document schema into OASIS SET TC OWL Definition and is publicly available from http://www.srdc.metu.edu.tr/iSURF/OASIS-SET-TC/tools/OASISSET.zip

iSURF Global Data Synchronization and Transitory Collaboration Service Utility
• A semantic infrastructure– Facilitate establishing transitory supply chain planning collaborations in case of
exceptions– Allow the registration, discovery and negotiation of partner’s current trade interests and
availability information and their reputation in trusted relationships. • Trading partners can dynamically discover matching trading partners for a specific need
within a trusted environment • The Global Data Synchronization Network (GDSN) will be exploited
– A network that connects data pools, which are regional sources of manufacturer and retailer data, to the GS1 Global Registry
– The GS1 Global Registry lets companies locate source (manufacturer) or recipient (retailer) data pools so data is standardized and synchronized for trading partners on a near real-time basis
