The present article deals with a supply chain management considered as a DEDS. In this paper, we introduce a new modeling approach based on linear and non-stationary (max, +) equations obtained from a Timed Coloured Petri Nets (TCPN) describing the behavior of the studied system. Our contribution does not lie only on the modeling of the dynamics associated with the trucks and their scheduling between different sites (suppliers, warehouses, customers..), but also on the evaluation of dates of loading, unloading and delivery of products from suppliers to customers, taking into account their appropriate destinations. The developed models are tested and validated on several scenarios and configurations of a supply chain, and the obtained results are satisfying and promising. \textcopyright 2019, Computers and Industrial Engineering.
