Abstract
Present evolution of multi-firm supply chains and industrial districts urges to have at disposal procedures and methods for the organization and management of a COllaborative DEmand & Supply NETwork (CO-DESNET. The crucial point in organizing and managing such networks is “to assure good collaboration among partners”: interactions among the firms as well as the connecting information pattern have to be designed accordingly. The presentation of a new model of a CO-DESNET is the scope of the paper: based on this model, conditions verifying how collaborative operations of the firms included in the network will occur, are derived.
