SIGNIFICANCE OF SUPPLY CHAIN AND LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT
Aligning a Supply Chain with Marketing Strategy
• Understand the customer• Identify the needs of the customer segment being
served. • Needs help to define the relative importance of efficiency
and responsiveness
• Understand the supply chain• Understand what a supply chain is designed to do well. • Some emphasize being responsive to customer
requirements and demand • Some emphasize efficiency with a goal of supplying
products at the lowest possible delivered cost.
Aligning a Supply Chain with Marketing Strategy
• Harmonize the supply chain with the marketing strategy• Ensure that what the supply chain is capable of doing well is
consistent with the targeted customer’s needs and its marketing strategy.
• If a mismatch exists Company will either need to redesign the supply chain to support
the marketing strategy Change the marketing strategy.
• A poorly designed supply chain can do serious damage to an otherwise brilliant marketing strategy.

• Warehousing
• Inventory
• Stockouts (being out of inventory)
• Order processing
• Return goods handling
• Costs are interrelated
• Changes in one will impact the others.
• Efforts to maximize service and minimizing cost

Customer Service Concept
• To provide adequate customer service whiles controlling logistics costs
• Customer service is the ability of logistics management to satisfy users in terms of
• Time
• Convenience
• Dependability
• Communication
Customer Service Concept – 3 components
• Lead time
• Lag from ordering an item until it is received and
ready for use.
• Also called order cycle time or replenishment time.
• Enhanced by electronic data and inventory systems
Customer Service Concept – 3 components
• Dependability• Consistency of replenishment
Consistent leadtime,
Safe delivery
Complete delivery.
• Essential for just-in-time inventory strategies.
• Communication• Two-way link between buyer and seller
• Monitors service
• Anticipates future needs.
Customer Service Standards
• Effective supply chains usually develop written customer service standards,
• Objectives and provide a benchmark against which results can be measured for control purposes.
• Customer service standards will vary by type of firm.
• Type of firm Customer service standard Wholesaler at least 98% orders filled accurately
Manufacturer order cycle time <5 days
Retailer returns accepted within 30 days
Airline at least 90% of arrivals on time
Trucker a max of 5% loss/damage per year
Restaurant lunch served within 5min of order
Concept Check
• How does consumer demand information increase supply chain responsiveness and efficiency?
• What is the relationship between the number of warehouses a company operates, the inventory costs and its transportation costs?
• Transportation
• Warehouse and material handling
• Order processing
• Inventory management
KEY LOGISTICS FUNCTIONS IN A SUPPLY CHAIN
Evaluating Transportation
• Cost• Total price to move the product from the point of origin
to the destination.
• Time• Speed of transit
• Capability• Ability of the carrier to
• provide the appropriate equipment and
• provide conditions for moving goods.
• What can be realistically carried with this mode?
Evaluating Transportation
• Dependability• Reliability of service regarding time, loss, and
damage;
• Accessibility• Carrier’s ability to move goods over a specific route
or network.
• Relative ease with which a shipment can be located and transferred.
• Frequency• Scheduling
Railroads
• Unit train
• Dedicated to one commodity (often coal)
• Permanently coupled cars that run a continuous loop
from a single origin to a single destination and back.
• Keep to a specific schedule
• Customers can plan on reliable delivery
• Usually carry products that can be loaded and
unloaded quickly and automatically.
• Unit trains
Railroads
• Intermodal transportation
• Combining different transportation modes to get the
best features of each.
• Attracts high-valued freight that would normally go by truck.
• Truck-rail, called piggyback or trailer on flatcar (TOFC).
• Containers in place of trailers.
• Containers can be loaded on ships, trains, and truck trailers.
• Containers are used in international trade because they occupy less space on ocean-going vessels.
Motor Carriers
• Pickup and delivery nearly everywhere. • Carry higher-valued shipments that are time-
sensitive & costly to carry
• Limitations are size and weight
• Rates are substantially higher than rail
Air Carriers and Express Companies
• Costly
• Speed may create savings in lower inventory. • Usually valuable, time-sensitive, and
lightweight.
• Specialized firms provide ground support.
Freight Forwarders
• Accumulate small shipments into larger lots
• Hire a carrier to move them
• Usually at reduced rates.• Shipment receives improved service at lower
cost.
Freight forwarders
Advantages and disadvantages of five modes Advantages and disadvantages of five modes of transportationof transportation
• Warehousing
• In storage warehouses
• Distribution centers
KEY LOGISTICS FUNCTIONS IN A SUPPLY CHAIN
In storage warehouses
• Goods are intended to come to rest for some
period of time, as in the aging of products or in
storing household goods
Distribution Centers
• Designed to facilitate the timely movement of goods
• Second most significant cost in a supply chain after transportation.
• Allow holding stock in decentralized locations
• Facilitate sorting and consolidating products from different plants or suppliers.
• Some physical transformation can also take place
• Material handling
KEY LOGISTICS FUNCTIONS IN A SUPPLY CHAIN
Material handling
• Storage helps manufacturers manage supply and demand
• Provides time utility to buyers and sellers.
• Moves inventory into, within, and out of the warehouse.
Material handling
• The two major problems with this activity are:
• High labor costs.
• High rates of loss and damage.
• Every time an item is handled, there is a chance for loss or damage.
• Materials handling in warehouses is automated by using computers and robots to reduce the cost of holding, moving, and recording inventories
Material Handling
• Order processing
KEY LOGISTICS FUNCTIONS IN A SUPPLY CHAIN
Order processing
• Critical to providing good service and accurate record flows
• Processing systems are evaluated in terms of speed and accuracy.
• Electronic order processing dominates for most large companies
• Processes the requirements of the customer
• Sends the information into the supply chain
• Electronic data interchange (EDI) uses computer technology to replace the paper documents
• Inventory Management• Reasons for Inventory
• Inventory Costs
• Supply Chain Inventory Strategies Just-in-time (JIT) concept Vendor-managed inventory
KEY LOGISTICS FUNCTIONS IN A SUPPLY CHAIN
Reasons for Holding Inventory
• To create a buffer against uncertainties in supply & demand
• To take advantage of lower purchasing and transportation cost associated with high volume
• To take advantage of economies of scale associated with manufacturing products in batches
• To build up seasonal demand for promotional sales
• To accommodate product flowing from one location to another (work in process or in transit)
• To exploit speculative opportunities for buying and selling commodities and other products
Inventory Costs
• Capital costs• Opportunity costs of the investment; these are related
to interest rates.
• Inventory service costs• Taxes and insurance
• Storage costs.• Warehousing space and materials handling.
• Risk costs.• Possible loss, damage, pilferage, perishability, and
obsolescence
Supply Chain Inventory Strategies
• Just-in-time (JIT)
• Operates with very low inventories
• Requires fast, on-time delivery.
• Requires accurate demand forecasting, and is
• Not suitable for inventories that are to be stored over
significant periods of time
• vendor-managed inventory (VMI)
• Supplier determines the product amount and assortment a
customer (such as a retailer) needs and
• Automatically delivers the appropriate items.
• Reverse supply chain
CLOSING THE LOOP
Reverse Logistics
• Reclaiming recyclable and reusable materials, returns, and reworks from the point of consumption or use
• for repair, remanufacturing, redistribution, or disposal.
• Its effect can be seen in reduced waste in landfills and lowered operating costs for companies.
