Primary Logistics Activities

the basic functions that have to be performed in any logistics system. These activities are all interrelated, and a change in one will likely create a ripple effect of change throughout the entire system.

The goal of postponement

to supply desirable products to customers at a relatively low cost and in a responsive way

Warehouse Robots

were built to optimize the order picking and fulfillment process and they are particularly suitable for e-commerce.

What opportunities does Globalization offer?

-Demand Exceeds Local Supply - 90% of global demand is not fully satisfied by local supply. Global supply market offers more options. -Strategic Sourcing - Identifying and matching the sources of raw materials and components to manufacturers and distributors using the global market. -Offshoring - Moving manufacturing and distribution operations to countries with favorable labor costs and tax laws. .

Challenges of Global Logistics

-Distance of typical order-to-delivery operations significantly longer for global logistics compared to domestic logistics -Documentation requirements for business transactions is .significantly more complex -must deal with significant. diversity in work practices

What is necessary to achieve integrated management?

-Focus of integrated management is the lowest total process cost -Collaboration of operating information, technology, and risk across the end-to-end supply chain. -Includes expanded managerial influence and control beyond traditional ownership boundaries of a single enterprise -Integrated service providers (ISP) offer a range of logistics services to accommodate customers, ranging from order entry to product delivery

-Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP): Senior Managements tool to run business -Supply Chain Compliance: Regulatory -Supply Chain Visibility and Event Management: "Control Towers"

Logistics Labor- Transportation

-Transportation is an area with growing labor shortages due to the rapid growth in online shopping that is creating strong demand for delivery drivers. -a record shortage with an estimated 50,000 more drivers needed to meet demand -causes a bottleneck of goods that is delaying deliveries and prompting some companies to increase prices by as much as 20%.

Financial Measurement of Time-Based Supply Chains

1. Cash to Cash Conversion 2. Dwell Time 3. Cash Spin

_ % of companies, the head of supply chain position reports directly to the CEO, GM or president of the business

61%

Augmented Reality (AR)

AR offers numerous assistive technologies to facilitate the everyday work of employees, particularly in the areas of logistics, manufacturing, and warehousing. -Smart displays, glasses or simulators can significantly simplify and improve future tasks in the supply chain.

Assembly Postponement

Assembly postponement is relevant for companies with modular product design. Having base materials in modules, and a flexible design, it is possible to construct various end-products from the modules in one kit. -Example: IKEA flat pack boxes

Manufacturing Postponement

Base is made; customization are delayed until after actual orders are received The objective is to maintain products in an uncommitted status as long as possible, while building a sufficient quantity of "ready to customize" basic units This strategy balances economies of scale with responsiveness, but it requires a lot of forethought during product design

Supply Chain Information System (SCIS) - Framework

Enterprise Resource Planning Enterprise Integration and Administration Enterprise Planning and Monitoring Enterprise Operations Financial and Operations Reporting

Disadvantages of Pull Model (Responsive Business Model)

Every order is a rush order Any problem will lead to customer dissatisfaction Highly dependent on customer relationship Reduced ability to receive economies of scale

Economic Value

Focus is on economies of scale in product and service creation, and striving to achieve the lowest total landed cost. -High quality at a low price -Provided through the Procurement and Manufacturing Strategy

What is the focus of integrated management?

Focus of integrated management is the lowest total process cost

Market Value

Focus on achieving economies of scope in product and/or service presentation. -Convenient product/service assortment and choice -Provided through the Market and Distribution Strategy

Disadvantage of Push Model (Anticipatory Business Model)

High inventories Long lead-times Dependency on forecasting Inefficiencies, obsolescence, shortages

Advantages of Pull Model (Responsive Business Model)

High levels of customer service Responsive and Flexible to meet uncertain customer demand Short lead times Reduced dependency on forecast Low inventory

Advantages of Push Model (Anticipatory Business Model)

If forecast is accurate product is immediately available to ship to the customer on demand Manufacturers have the opportunity to plan resources better or with more flexibility and can maximize the utilization of resources at the lowest cost

Enterprise Operations

Customer Relationship Management Logistics Manufacturing Purchasing Inventory Deployment

Make-to-Stock

Push Model; Producing stock on the basis of anticipated demand. Demand forecasting can be done via a variety of sophisticated techniques.

Combined Postponement

Combination of manufacturing and time postponement which involves keeping the basic products centralized and performing the final product customization at the destination distributor, rather than the manufacturing site Ex. Cars (installing options like sounds systems, GPS, roof racks) Computers ( packaging/ bundling additional system options like printers, digital cameras, software)

Capacity Crunch

Companies are forces to find more ways to cut costs and avoid scaring off customers with rising prices. -One of the ways businesses might be able to save resources upfront is with cloud-based SCM.

Integrative Management Requires Simultaneous Achievement of 8 Processes

Demand Planning Responsiveness Customer Relationship Collaboration Order fulfillment/ service delivery Product/ service development launch Manufacturing customization Supplier Relationship Collaboration Life Cycle Support Reverse Logistics

Efficient Supply Chain Model

ERP transactions

Order Entry Order Management Inventory Assignment Receiving Shipping

All supply chains follow the basic model:

Plan → Source → Make → Deliver → ← Return

Make-to-Order, Assemble-to-Order, Engineer-to-Order:

Pull Model; Producing stock in response to actual demand

Postponement

The act of leaving the final configuration of a product to the last possible moment and moving those operations closer to the customer A strategy that works to reduce the risk of a supply chain performance issue hybrid of "Push" and "Pull" Models designed to overcome the disadvantages of each

Packaging Postponement

When goods that might be offered in different packages (size of package) are not packaged until the last moment Allows for the storage of finished products unpacked, and minimized the risk of excessive stocks

Labeling Postponement

When product differentiation takes places only by putting the labels on the package Useful when companies use different markets Ex. Different languages on labeling/ "Best before"

Blockchain Technology

also known as a distributed ledger, is a shared database creating a permanent transaction record that can be changed only with the permission of the other members of the network. -Some of the first applications in the supply chain are targeted toward food and pharmaceutical safety, tracking items to their source in case of a recall or as an anti-counterfeiting measure. -It could be used to record any kind of exchange of value, smart contracts, payments and tracking.

Internet of Things (IoT)

concerns optimally networked devices that know exactly what they have to do and when. -these could be smart sensors on manufacturing floors in order to efficiently manage planned and predictive maintenance work. Dangers: -a hacker attack increases with the number of connected devices. -the security aspect will play a more important role in the future.
