THE CONCEPTS OF
SYSTEMS APPROACH IN LOGISTICS
1. The concept of costs interdependences
Logistics costs are related one to each other and any changes in
one cost component influence the other cost components.
2. Total cost concept
Relates to costs interdependences and emphasizes the need for
reducing total cost of logistics activities,
rather than focusing on each activity in isolation. The goal is
to find the alternative with the lowest total cost at the certain
customer service level.
3. Avoiding sub-optimalization
It appears when minimizing the cost of one component results in
the increase of the whole systems cost.

SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
Marzenna Cichosz , Ph.D. Logistics Management
An integrated philosophy to manage the total flow
within a distribution channel from supplier to ultimate
customer (Cooper & Ellram)
A strategic concept that involves understanding and
managing the sequence of activities from supplier to
customer that add value to the product supply pipeline(Battaglia
& Tyndall)
A network of companies that works together to provide
a product or service for end-use market(Goldsby)
SUPPLY CHAIN DEFINITIONS
Marzenna Cichosz , Ph.D. Logistics Management
SCM encompasses the planning and management
of all activities involved in sourcing and procurement,
conversion,
and all logistics management activities.
Importantly, it also includes
coordination and collaboration with channel partners,
which can be suppliers, intermediaries, third-party service
providers, and customers.
In essence, SCM integrates supply and demand management
within and across companies.

SUPPLY CHAIN PROCESSES
Marzenna Cichosz , Ph.D. Logistics Management
Processes are led by cross-functional teams.
Each process integrates suppliers and customers.
CRM and SRM are key linkages in the supply chain.
Relationships with customers and suppliers are tailored to
the
specific needs of the parties involved. The impact of
actions
on either side of the relationship can be measured and
tracked to bottom-line performance.
SCM is a team sport and there is equity in relationships.

THE IMPORTANCE OF KNOWING
SUPPLY CHAIN STRUCTURE
The supply chain map provides the firm with a
perspective one thats critical to understanding
where the business fits in the supply chain, and
where its suppliers and customers, respectively, fit.
Integration of business processes cannot take place
without this perspective.
Marzenna Cichosz, Ph.D. Logistics Management
SUPPLY CHAIN NETWORK STRUCTURE
Important structural aspects:
The members of the supply chain
Primary members
Supporting members
Structural dimensions of the supply chain
Horizontal structure (number of tiers: short / long)
Vertical structure (depth within each tier)
Horizonatl pozition (channel position)
Marzenna Cichosz, Ph.D. Logistics Management
MAP YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN
Position your organization as a focal company of your supply
chain. Who are your immediate suppliers and customers?
What types of relationships do you have with these outside
entities? Are they intimate/intense or casual/laid-back?
What is your relative influence in these relationships?
Where
do you need more influence?
What are the physical flows that support these
relationships?
(supply points, your locations, customer locations)
Are there non-member (competitor) links that concern you?

DATA:Profit margin - 15%
IRR - 10% annually
Average order - 2000 z
Average annual sale - 4000 z annually/customer
Number of customers - 1000
Order cycle - 1 month
Out of 100 non-served customers:
90 will order next month (they will wait)
9 resigned (this time they buy from competitors)
1 definitely resigned
2000 z * 10%(1/12) = 16,67 z * 0.90 = 15,00 z
2000 z * 15% = 300,00 z * 0,09 = 27,00 z
(4000 z * 15%)/10% =6000,00 z * 0,01 = 60,00 z
15,00 z + 27,00 z + 60,00 z = 102,00 z / 1 customer

Cycle stock refers to inventory that is needed to satisfy
normal demand during the course of an order cycle.
Safety or buffer stock is held in excess to cycle inventory
because of uncertainty of demand and lead times.
In-transit stock is inventory that is en route between
various
fixed facilities in a logistics system such as a plant,
warehouse, or store.
Speculative stock refers to inventory that is held for
several
reasons, including seasonal demand, projected price
increases, and potential shortages of a product.
Seasonal stock is the form of speculative stock that
involves
the accumulation of inventory before season begins in order
to maintain a stable workforce and production runs.

IS IT GOOD OR BAD TO HAVE INVENTORY?

Guarantees a continuous
access to all kinds of goods
when supplies are
discontinues
Guarantees access to goods in
periods when they are not
available
Ensures required service level
compensating random
variations of demand
Ensures required service level

BAD
Takes space (warehouses)
Costs money (capital, space,
losses); carrying stock may
cost annually up to 30% of
inventory value
Marzenna Cichosz , Ph.D. Logistics Management
Carrying cost is the expense associated with maintaining
inventory.
Carrying cost = annual inv. carrying cost % x avarage
inventory
value
Ordering cost is associated with ordering or acquiring the
inventory.
It embraces direct costs such as clerical personnel, data
transmission,
preparing invoices, receiving payment as well as the indirect
cost such
as managerial cost.
Ordering cost = # of orders per year x ordering cost per
order
Stockout cost is an estimated cost or penalty for stockout. It
involves
an understanding of customers reaction to a company being out
of
stock when customers want to buy an item.
INVENTORY COSTS
Marzenna Cichosz , Ph.D. Logistics Management
Capital cost (opportunity cost) is the interest on the money
used to
buy the inventory, or the interest lost from other potential
investments
that were forgone to buy inventory.
Capital cost = annual min. rate of return % x total investment
in inventory
Storage space costs are calculated by multiplying the cost per
cubic
meter (i.e. the space occupied) with the amount of time the
inventory is
stored. Storage costs can also be measured in terms of
weight.
Inventory service costs include costs of insurance and
taxes.
Insurance cost is an expense based upon estimated risk or loss
over
time. Loss risk depends on the product and the facility storing
the
product.
Inventory risk costs are those costs associated with the
obsolescence, shrinkage, deterioration, and damage of
inventory.

Marzenna Cichosz, Ph.D. 2
Marzenna Cichosz , Ph.D. Logistics Management
AIRFREIGHT
Generally the fastest mode for shipment
Expensive
Best suited for high-value, lower-volume, urgent,
perishable or time-specific deliveries
Dimensional weight used for rates
Reliability is problematic due to delays caused by:
Weather (fog, snow, thunderstorms)
Congestion and resultant delays with air passenger
transportation (belly freight)
Marzenna Cichosz , Ph.D. Logistics Management
MOTOR CARRIERS / TRUCK
Primary advantage is flexibility
Cost is generally lower when compared to airfreight
LTL (Less-than-truckload) vs. TL (Truckload)
LTL (50 to 7,000 kg and less than 2.5 to 8.5 m)
Average LTL (600 kg and size of pallet)
LTL trucks carry shipments from many shippers
Process (shipments move through terminals)
TL (focus on shipments larger than 7000 kg)
TL are close to the amount that would physically fill a
truck
trailer
Process (shipments tend to move directly from the shippers
location to the consignees location)
Marzenna Cichosz , Ph.D. Logistics Management
RAILROAD
Polish rail transport is dominated by PKP Cargo
Domination limits service and pricing options
Neither best or worst on any of the six attributes
Superior to air, motor, pipeline but inferior to water
when transporting different kinds of products
Less flexibility than motor, but more when compared to
air, water, and pipeline
Faster than pipeline and water, but slower than air and
truck
Less expensive than air and motor, but more expensive
than pipeline and water
Marzenna Cichosz , Ph.D. Logistics Management
WATER
(DEEPWATER AND INLAND)
Relatively inexpensive
Focus on lower value bulk commodities
handled by mechanical means
Many different kinds of products can be
carried
Carry greater volumes than rail or truck
Slow average speeds
Somewhat unreliable

operations to a specialized company. Every company

cross-docking, inventory management, packaging, and
freight forwarding.
Third-party logistics providers are: freight forwarders,
courier companies, and other companies integrating and
offering subcontracted logistics and transportation
services.
