Abstract: In order to meet increased level of competition, the business supply chain process requires high flexibility and good agility. From workflow management perspective, process management in supply chain plays an important role in achieving reducing lead-time and cost-effective operations. However, the conventional process management for supply chain workflow is hardly used to handle processes with tasks separated by enterprise boundaries. For this reason, the goal-driven management that supports timely workflow process fits into the inter-enterprise process management. Along the way, this paper proposes a framework and a model for dynamic supply chain workflow process management using multi-agents technology. In the framework, multi agents are designed to handle process tasks. Finally, a modeling manner of workflow process using an example scenario is discussed,such that coordinating various activities on the supply chain can be greatly improved and workflow processes can be fully executed from management and technology perspective.
