Supply chain relations rely on the establishment of informative communication platform, for it reduces the complexity of transaction process and minimize managerial risks within the company. More importantly, it enhances the companies’ competitiveness.

   Therefore, there is a need for the establishment of computer-mediated relations between GMTC and its affiliated companies.
