INTERMEDIARY SYSTEM OF ORDER PLACEMENT AND ACCEPTANCE FOR TRIAL PRODUCT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To properly mediate placement and acceptance of an order for requesting a trial through the Internet.;SOLUTION: An intermediary system comprises a server which is connected to a plurality of orderer terminals and a plurality of order receiver terminals through a network so as to communicate with them, and a storage means wherein order receiver information relating to order receivers and item coefficients set for each item of order receiver information are stored. When requests for ordering are transmitted from orderer terminals to the server, the server uses item coefficients to calculate scores relating to respective order receivers on the basis of ordering request information included in the requests for ordering and the order receiver information. Furthermore, the server generates an order receiver list wherein order receivers are arranged in the descending order of score, and presents this list to orderer terminals which have ordered. Thus an orderer can easily determine a transaction partner (order receiver) most suitable for the orderer to manufacture a trial product. The order receiver list in more consideration of various elements, that is, highly reliabile by properly setting items of orderer information and item coefficients.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
