Tiivistelmä
In the fierce market competition, the transformation of market competition based on price and quality of the original product competition gradually shifts to the time of the supply chain competition, which makes scholars begin to study the supply chain based on time competition and enterprises especially in automobile industry begin to explore suit-able time-based supply chain.
The objectives of the thesis are (a) to carry out a detailed study of the supply chain based on time competition; and (b) to provide an innovative research direction for many com-panies.
The study of the supply chain based on time competition was carried out by analyzing the existed problems in supply chain and putting forward three possible strategies. By pro-posing a conceptual model and analyzing two cases, the understanding of time-based supply chain was deepened.
As a result, the benefits and challenges of supply chain based on time competition are clearly shown. Besides, different time management strategies that two enterprises adopted in supply chain management in cases provide a guidance for enterprises to use time management techniques in supply chain management.
