Logistics

In my work experience and education I was always closely linked to the operation of

manufacturing companies. For many of these companies, customer satisfaction with cost

optimization is essential to maintain a leadership position in the market. However, behind this

demand there is a whole process of production and distribution that helps maximize the flexibility

of response of each client; you must have previously studied the market level and its variability. It

is partly this variability in the supply chain that generates inefficiencies that result in differential

cost or level of service.

Logistics costs can be grouped into 4 categories: transport, storage, inventory and administration.

Logistics centers need to reduce transport time and costs by minimizing distances, routes, heavy

traffic and wasted space; to reduce losses and avoid the risks, reducing costs. Also use flexible

systems, which can be adapted to any changing needs and anticipate future expansion. Consult all

affected sections, evaluating the alternatives, persuading all concerned about your convenience.

The method that I consider most appropriate to study is as follows: consider the logistical process,

employed means and trading volume and traffic produced, distribution of workplaces, relative

ordering of them in plant centers and merchandise.

In my experience large multinational companies have quickly learned this and acted accordingly,

while smaller still decide to assess the impact of the variability of processes and compare the

improved stability with the associated logistics costs of this reality.

I understand that the implementation of new work brings the hand of investments in technology

and logistics, not all companies have the ability to perform, even though it is clear that the vast

majority of them trend in that direction. This should be a strategic initiative to eliminate

traditional barriers between business partners, erase the barriers that result in cost, time and add

little or no value to the consumer.

Logistics is an effective tool in several ways, which can produce competitiveness,
