Abstract
The supply–demand system (S–DS for short below) of automotive manufacturer–supplier (AM–S for short below) is a network system which consists of demand subsystem and supply subsystem. The supply–demand relationships reflect the partnership between AM–S. There is a need for coordination and cooperation between two subsystems in order to achieve the balance between the supply and demand. From the perspective of Synergetics, this paper analyses how the control parameters of S–DS which are called synergetic order parameters play the main control role to make S–DS reach the cooperative state, and discusses the discipline of the coordinated evolution in systems. Finally, the synergetic degree model is put forward to demonstrate the coordinative management effect of S–DS.
