Supply chain, as a means of integrating resource, can achieve win-win effect by sharing information and knowledge and collaborating with partners. From the angle of view of knowledge, this dissertation probes into supply chain partnership. The main research work in this dissertation is as follows:(1) It makes use of game theory to construct the system of knowledge-based collaboration mechanisms in supply chain, and then analyzes risk-prevention mechanism, knowledge-function mechanism and profit-allocation mechanism in it.(2) It investigates the management of knowledge-based supply chain partnership by dividing it into four stages: partner requirements analysis, gathering partner-related information, partner selection and partner-tracking management, and an evaluation index system of knowledge-based supply chain partners is constructed in it.(3) When it dissertates the requirement for information system of knowledge-based supply chain collaboration, a model of success of supply chain information system is constructed from the core enterprise of the supply chain, and the dimensions of the model are analyzed.This dissertation probes into collaboration mechanisms and partnership management in supply chain from the perspective of knowledge, and analyzes the success model of information system that underpins it accordingly. These results provide corresponding theoretical support to supply chain member enterprises in knowledge collaboration.
