Research on coordination mechanism models of launch vehicle supply chain based on information and contracts

Market competition in 21^st century is no longer that among enterprises but that among supply chains. Supply chain is based on ldquoCompetition-Cooperation-Coordinationrdquo mechanism and coordination is the key to successful implementation of the supply chain. The launch vehicle supply chain is a typical complex system which needs to be coordinated. This paper constructed the coordinated mechanism model of launch vehicle supply chain based on a comprehensive analysis of many domestic and foreign research results, then did the contrast research of price, the sales volume, the system profit and other major variables in coordinated and non-coordinated decision-making's situation, and confirmed the coordination mechanism can reduce the prices of products, improve sales volume and increase the system's profits, which is a win-win situation of the supply chain members.
