Logistics vs Supply Chain Management

Council of Logistics Management “Logistics is the process of planning, implementing

and controlling the efficient, cost-effective flow and storage of raw materials, in-process inventory, finished goods and related information from the point of origin to point of consumption for the purpose of conforming to customer requirements.”

Handfield and Nichols SCM is the integration of all activities associated

with the flow and transformation of goods from raw materials through to end user, as well as information flows, through improved supply chain relationships, to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage.

Dickson Chiu 2006 SCM-4

Common Contemporary Logistics Terms

Value stream/logistics process Quick response and flexible manufacturing Mass customization Supply chain management/ collaborative logistics Reverse logistics Service logistics Continuous replenishment Lean logistics Integrated logistics

=> IT people have to deal with any related automation anyway

The Logistics/SCM Mission Getting the right goods or services to the right place,

at the right time, and in the desired condition at the lowest cost and highest return on investment.

Product / Service Utility Possession Utility - the value or usefulness that comes from a

customer being able to take possession of a product Form Utility - in a form that can be used by the customer and

is of value to the customer Place Utility - available where they are needed by customers Time Utility - available when they are needed by customers

Logistics obviously help time and place utility

Relationship of Logistics to Marketing and Production

Logistic in Marketing

Marketing Process is successfully completed

only when


1 Arrangements are made to supply the goods through selected distribution channels.

2 Products are produced and priced to satisfy the identified needs of the customers.

3 Goods are physically supplied to the buyers at the price and time selected.


4 An awareness is created among the buyers about the availability of the goods through advertisement

5 Other than satisfying the customer’s needs, the marketing process must be profitable to the seller

Relationship of Logistics to Marketing


Elements of the logistics marketing mix

Product Price Promotion Place People


Relationship of Logistics to Production

Coordinates through scheduling and strategy make-to-order make-to-stock

An integral part of the supply chain Affects total response time for customers Shares activities such as inventory planning

Costs are in tradeoff Production lot quantities affect inventory levels and

transportation efficiency Production response affects transportation costs and

customer service Production and warehouse location are interrelated


Logistics/SCM in Diverse Areas

Manufacturing - most common Service - emerging opportunities Environment - causing restrictions Non-profits / Government - little

explored Military - long history

Note the global evolvement into a service-oriented economy!

The Multi-Dimensions of SCM


Increasing Significance of Logistics

Costs are high About 10.5% of GDP domestically About 12% of GDP internationally A range of 4 to 30% of sales for individual firms, avg. about 10% A high as 70-80% of sales if purchasing and production are

included Customers are more demanding of the supply chain

Desire for quick response Desire for mass customization

An integral part of company strategy Generate revenue Improve profit

Logistical lines are lengthening Local vs. long distance supply Globalization of trade

Logistics is a key to trade and an increased standard of living Law of comparative economic advantage applies

Logistics adds value Time and place utilities


Contemporary IT Applications in Logistics – Focus of this Course

Tremendous technological advances in past decades Logistics management relies on analysis over massive

information from heterogeneous sources Disparate business functions in service-oriented

economy Internet and mobile technologies has further improved

logistical effectiveness and efficiency Enabled logisticians and management to make timely,

informed, and accurate decisions but create new dimensions of complexity

IT people work closely with logistician and management

Understand complex requirements Choose the right technology and design appropriate IT

infrastructures, architectures, and systems Explain how contemporary IT can help to others


Some Useful Contemporary IT in Logistics

eXtended Markup Language (XML) Service-oriented architecture Process integration and interaction management

Exceptions, alerts, and relationship management in logistics Information integration Facilitating decision support

Mobile technologies Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)

=> The key is to achieve information and process integration for efficient and effective decision support.


Logistical sub-systems

Physical supply or management of flow of raw materials , spare parts , consumable stores and machinery and tools from suppliers

Physical distribution or mgt of finished goods from the factory to the customers

Logistical controls for managing the logistics system; these help in the efficient co-ordination of physical supply and distribution sub systems.


The aim of an ideal logistic system is to ensure flow of supply to the customer

In the right quantity At the required location At the required time In a usable condition At the lowest total cost


Summary The logistic process plans, implements, controls the

flow and storage of goods, services, and related information between the point of origin and the point of consumption to satisfy customer requirements

Logistics addresses the time utility & place utility out of the four economic utilities

Logistics becomes more important and complex because of new requirements of the service-oriented economy, disparate business functions, and the impact of various contemporary IT

Logistics involves the interaction with multiple departments within a company as well as now also across business partner organizations and customers

Application of contemporary IT, especially information and process integration for efficient and effective decision support, is a critical success factor and therefore the focus of this course.
