Abstract

The integration of the different processes that conform the supply chain (SC) is fundamental to obtain a better coordination level. The inventory control and its distribution, are the processes that researches have found as the key in the loss of efficiency and effectiveness in the field of logistics, affecting so the synchronization in the SC management. In order to analyze the recent developments in the integration of these processes, this paper analyzes the state of the art of the progress in information management in the SC, the relationship of inventory policies and the demand information, modeling demand and use of optimization methods in the search for the appropriate solutions.
