business logistics

TermDefinition
A group of collaborative companies Supply Chain is best described as
Logistics is a subset of supply chain
economic, market, relevancy values 3 values of integration
Economic value: High quality at a low price (Economic of Scale)
Market value: Convenient product/service assortment and choice (Economic of Scope)
Relevancy value: Unique product/service bundle
computing power and the Internet Technological advancements in affect the supply chain
Information Technology, Integrative management, Responsiveness (Push, Pull strategies, postponements), Globalization Forces driving supply chain strategies
Lowest total process cost is the focus of integrated management
Anticipatory Business Model (Push, build-to-stock) Based on forecasts or best guesses of demand of products and products are ‘pushed’ to customers
Responsive Business Model (Pull, demand-driven model or build-to-order) Actual customer orders or purchases trigger events in the supply chain :
Driven by forecast The Anticipatory Business Model is best described as
Postponement  Manufacturing (or Form)  Geographic (or Logistics)
Service and cost minimization Logistical value proposition:
Availability, Operational performance, Service reliability Service benefits are created by logistical performance in these 3 areas
Availability involves having inventory to consistently meet customer material or product requirements
Operational performance deals with the time required to deliver a customer’s order, Key metrics for this area involve delivery speed and consistency
Service reliability involves the quality attributes of logistics – Key to quality is accurate measurement of availability and operational performance over time
Cost minimization: Traditional Cost Logistics Model vs Total Cost Logistics Model
(Annual holding cost * Value of shipment ) / 365 Daily cost of holding product
The work of logistics Order processing, inventory, transportation, warehousing, material handling and packaging, facility network
Core customer segmentation: Product profitability: Transportation integration: Time-based performance Competitive performance 5 Inventory Strategies
Core customer segmentation Some customers are highly profitable or have outstanding growth potential
Product profitability: Less than 20 percent of all products marketed account for more than 80 percent of total profit (Pareto Principle )
Transportation integration Most transportation rates are based on the volume and shipment size
Cost, speed, consistency Three fundamental factors of transportation performance:
Inventory safety stocks are required to protect against service failure When transportation lacks consistency,
Logistical operations: Inventory and information flow
raw materials, work-in-process, Finished products Managers must be concerned with the movement and storage of inventory in 3 major forms:
Planning / coordination information & Operational information needed to complete work Information flow: Logistical information has two major components
Responsiveness, variance reduction, inventory reduction, shipment consolidation, quality, life cycle support Logistical integration objectives:
Visibility, coordination, reduce lead time, inventory. Benefits of Effective and Efficient Use of Information
Office automation system, communication system, transaction processing system, management information system and executive information system, decision support system, enterprise system Six system types
Spreadsheet example of Office automation system
GPS example of Communication system
Point-of-Sale POS example of Transaction processing
Logistics Information system (LIS) example of MIS & EIS
Warehouse Management System(WMS), Transportation Management System(TMS) example of decision support system
Enterprise resource planning (ERP), example of enterprise system
ERP The backbone of most firm’s logistical information systems~
CRM, Logistics, manufacturing, inventory deployment, purchasing Enterprise five operations system components
logistics manager requesting information A logistics information system begins with
Online Retailing Similarities: Logistics functions and activities Difference : order sizes, packaging, transportation methods and companies, return rates
Transactional, Compliance, Management information, Price E-procurement 4 benefits
enhanced transactional efficiency Transactional benefits:
Compliance benefits: Focus on the saving that come from adherence to established procurement policies
Management information benefits: encompass those that result from management information, customer satisfaction, and supplier satisfaction levels after implementation of e-procurement
Price benefits: those that are given as a result of adopting e-procurement
Four economic utilities, 3 discrepancies, Four generic supply chain service outputs Customer-focused marketing:
Form, Possession, Time, Place Four economic utilities:
Space, Time, quantity and assortment 3 discrepancies:
Spatial convenience, lot size, waiting time, product variety and assortment Four generic supply chain service outputs:
availability, operational performance, service reliability Basic elements of customer service
At right amount, product, time, place, condition, price, information 7R
Fill rate, stockout frequency, Orders shipped complete Availability (3):
Speed, consistency, Flexibility, malfunction recovery Operational performance (4):
involves a combination of logistics attributes beyond simply availability and operational performance Service reliability:
zero defect Perfect order:
Customer expectations (10), a model of customer satisfaction (6gaps) Customer satisfaction
Reliability, responsiveness, access, communication, credibility, security, courtesy, competency, tangibles, knowing the customers Customer expectations (10):
Knowledge, standards, performance, communications, perception, satisfaction/quality Six gaps:
Achieving customer success, value-added service Customer success:
unique or specific activities that firms can jointly develop to enhance their efficiency, effectiveness and relevancy Value-added services refer to
higher logistics cost greater spatial convenience results in
focused on today transaction, short term view Procurement concept, purchasing
building relationships with suppliers and downstream customers Procurement: focus on
Continuous supply, minimize inventory investment, quality improvement, supplier development, access technology and innovation, lowest total cost of ownership Procurement objectives
2 types of discount: Quantity, Cash Lowest total cost of ownership:
Insourcing vs. outsourcing, alternative procurement strategies, procurement strategy portfolio Procurement strategy:
1) User buy 2) Volume consolidation (supply base reduction) 3) Supplier operational integration 4) Value management Four alternative procurement strategies
has potential benefits for suppliers as well as for buyers. Supply base reduction (volume consolidation)
Just-in-time(JIT) Seeks to minimize inventory by reducing (or eliminating) safety stockwhile having the required amount of materials arrive at the production location at the exact time they are needed
evaluate decision final step in the supplier selection and evaluation process
Collaborating planning, requirements planning, resource management Forecasting requirements
wrong Forecasts are always
groups or families of items and shorter time periods Forecasts are more accurate for
error estimate Every forecast should include an
calculated demand Forecasts are no substitute for
Base demand, seasonal, trend, cyclic, promotion, irregular Forecasting components:
(BD*S*T*C*P)+irregular Base demand*Seasonal*trend*Cyclic*Promotion The forecasting model:
Three integrated process: administration, technique, support system Forecasting Process:
Relies on expert opinion and special Qualitative
Time series, Causal Quantitative
do not always result in less forecast error than qualitative techniques quantitative techniques
finished good inventory In MTS ( Made to Stock) customer orders are satisfied from
individual customers and generally have long lead times Engineer to order products are designed for
Performance: Reliability: Durability: Conformance: Features, Aesthetics: Servicability:Perceived quality The 8 dimensions of product quality
Brand power, volume, variety, constraints, lead time Manufacturing perspective:
Volume: economic of scale
Variety: economic of scope
Constraints: Capacity, equipment, setup/changeover
Manufacturing strategy: Basic manufacturing processes, matching manufacturing strategy to market requirements, alternative manufacturing strategies, total cost of manufacturing
Job shop:,Batch Process, Line flow, Continuous process: Four basic manufacturing processes
Job shop: Flexibility: Very high, customization: Very high, volume: Very low
Batch Process: F: High, C: High volume: Low
Line flow: typical example: automobile manufacturer, limited, V: High
Continuous process: Flexibility: very low, customization: very low, volume: Very high, typical example: petroleum products
Engineer-to-order(ETO), Make-to-order (MTO), Assemble-to-order (ATO) or Build-to-stock(BTO), Make-to-stock(MTS) or Make-to-Plan(MTP): Four main manufacturing strategies
Engineer-to-order(ETO): used when products are unique and extensively customized for the specific needs of individual customers Design – Purchase – Manufacture – Assemble- Ship (the longest lead time)**
Make-to-order (MTO): Small quantities(have lower inventory and warehouse costs), but more complexity, usually shipped direct to customer Inventory –manufacture-assemble-ship Subway case
Assemble-to-order (ATO) or Build-to-stock(BTO): when base components are made, stocked to forecast, but products are not assembled until customer order is received Manufacture-inventory-assemble-ship Dell example
Make-to-stock(MTS) or Make-to-Plan(MTP): Economic of scale, large volume, long production runs, low variety, **Produce finished goods, customers buys from inventory!! Manufacture-assemble-inventory-ship McDonald’s case
Contemporary manufacturing developments: Mass customization, lean systems, six sigma, logistical interfaces
Lean system : the minimize the amount of all resources, elimination of “waste”. Four principles:
