Agent executing capabilityCollect, analyze, and sort the information and finally obtain effective information. Deal with logistics facilities establishment and location and provide optimized logistics protection. Find node members that fit for their own development and make effective combination to reach the company target. Complete fund procurement and maintain the normal operation of enterprises after the occurrence of risk. Find new resources to meet the changing market. Improve the defects in the supply chain and build a new supply chain network.
