By intensification of the competition with the globalization of the production, the dynamic supply chain becomes popular. In dynamic supply chain, the company select the most suitable business partner dynamically, hence the negotiation is necessary for the business partner selection. In the previous study, it revealed that the gross profit of the whole supply chain increased when the negotiation was done based on the price and delivery date which was decided according to the stock quantity and the production schedule. However, the previous study did not consider the simultaneous negotiations with multiple customers because a breakdown of either negotiation affected the production schedule. Therefore, in this study, we propose a simultaneous negotiation framework for multiple customers. In this framework, negotiation is done based on a set of bids which is determined according to the multiple schedules. The effectiveness of the proposed framework is validated through the computational experiments.
