Description
Summary:	Although collaboration between parteners is now considered as a mean to increase the performance of the supply chains, most of them are still managed in a directive way through cascades of classical MRP/MRP2 systems, in which the constraints of the suppliers, especially the smallest ones, are poorly taken into account. We suggest in this article to assess the interest of the integration into collaborative processes of some practices based on MRP, identified after a study in aeronautical supply chains. Within these processes, classical parameters of MRP would be negotiated instead of being imposed by the large companies.
