SYSTEM, METHOD AND PROGRAM RECORDING MEDIUM FOR SUPPLY CAPACITY ESTIMATION
First Claim
1. A supply capacity estimating system that performs information processing for supporting transaction of parts between a buyer and a supplier by using computers via a communication network, the supply capacity estimating system comprising:
- a transaction history managing function for storing and managing transaction information of the parts including information of delivery requests including the number of required parts from the buyer and information of delivery responses including the number of suppliable parts from the supplier on a DB in chronological order as transaction history information; and
an estimating function for performing processes of estimating the parts supply capacity of the supplier with respect to delivery responses of the supplier in reply to delivery requests of the buyer,the estimating function performing;
a process of acquiring, from the DE, delivery request history information related to the delivery request of the buyer;
a process of acquiring, from the DE, delivery response history information related to the delivery response of the supplier;
a process of acquiring or inputting process lead time information related to provision of parts from the supplier;
a process of estimating the parts supply capacity of the supplier in form of estimated number of suppliable parts or possibility/impossibility of supply by determining numbers of suppliable parts of past delivery responses with respect to numbers of required parts of past delivery requests by using the delivery request history information, the delivery response history information and the process lead time information, creating and storing the estimation as estimated result information; and
a process of outputting a screen including the estimated result information to the user.

Abstract
Technology for realizing reductions in time required for production plan by estimating supply capacities of suppliers is provided. A system has a function of registering and displaying transaction information including delivery requests from a buyer including number of required parts and delivery responses from a supplier including number of suppliable parts, a function of managing the series of transaction information as transaction history information on a DB, and an estimating function of estimating supply capacities of parts of the supplier with respect to the delivery responses in reply to delivery requests. The estimating function performs processes of estimating supply capacities by determining numbers of suppliable parts of past delivery responses with respect to numbers of required parts of past delivery requests by using the delivery request history information, the delivery response history information and the process LT information, and outputting a screen including the estimated result information to users.
