The paper proposes a supply chain simulation framework for collaborative
design called The paper proposes a supply chain simulation framework for collaborative
design called SCM–based Design Tool. The tool is based on Object–Oriented
Modeling. This work is presented through a Web–assisted product development
environment. The tool is developed particularly to support design tasks and to integrate
all facilities together, also to extend the enterprise. Designer–customer can
collaboratively work with the system since conceptual design. The system can shorten
time in design and manufacturing as well as to hold as decision tool and data
propagation. The framework of this study covers since raw material stage until finished
goods. The proposed system integrates raw material requirements, product data
management, computer-aided design, manufacturing process, packaging, inventory,
until shipping. Visualization, data management and sharing information are supported
via the user interface. The prototype system is presented for Thai jewelry industry.
