Logistics Management

“Logistics Management is that part of supply chainmanagement that plans, implements, and controls the

efficient, effective forward and reverse flow and storage

of goods, services and related information between the

point of origin and the point of consumption in order to

meet customers' requirements.”

CSCPM (Council of Supply Chain ManagementProfessionals)

Council of Supply Chain

Management Professionals

(www.cscmp.org)Founded in 1963, it is the preeminent association for individuals involved

in supply chain management

CSCMP was originally founded as the National Council of Physical

Distribution Management (NCPDM) in January 1963. NCPDM was formed

by a visionary group of educators, consultants, and managers who

envisioned the integration of transportation, warehousing, and inventory

as the future of the discipline. At that time, physical distribution was just

beginning to edge its way into the corporate lexicon and make its

considerable presence felt in the business community.

In 1985, recognizing the growing field of logistics, the association's focus

broadened as it changed its name to the Council of Logistics Management

(CLM). It stayed that way until 2004 when CLM's Executive Committee

voted to become CSCMP, the Council of Supply Chain Management

Professionals (CSCMP)

The evolution of the logistics

concept: distribution A term employed in manufacturing and commerce todescribe the broad range of activities concerned with

efficient movement of finished products from the end of

production line to consumer, and in some cases includes

the movement of raw materials from the source of supply

to the beginning of the production line .

NCPD (National Council of Physical Distribution

Management), 1967 

!  Efficient: emphasis on cost reduction

!  From production line to consumer: emphasis on the distributionsystem

!  Movement of finished products: emphasis on materials handing and

transportation

The evolution of the logistics

concept: integrated logistics

The integration of two or more activities for the purposeof planning, implementing, and controlling the efficient

flow of raw materials, in-process inventory and finished

goods from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption”.

NCPD (National Council of Physical DistributionManagement), 1976 

 

!  Integration: emphasis on the value of global optimization (as opposed

to local optimization)

!  Plan, implement and control: not only execution, emphasis on logisticsas a business management discipline

!  From point of origin to point of consumption: first inclusion of the

(internal) “supply chain perspective”

concept: integrated logistics

The process of planning, implementing, and controllingthe efficient, cost-effective flow and storage of raw

requirements”.

CLM (Council of Logistics Management),1985 

 

!  Process: it is the first explicit recognition that Logistics is a process

!  Related information: not only flow of goods but also flow ofinformation

!  Conforming to customer requirements: it is the ultimate objective of

logistics, not only efficiency and cost.-effectiveness

Supply Chain Management

“Supply chain management is an integrating function with primary

responsibility for linking major business functions and business

processes within and across companies into a cohesive and high-

performing business model. It includes all of the logistics

management activities, as well as manufacturing operations, and it

drives coordination of processes and activities with and across

marketing, sales, product design, finance, and information

technology. ”

CSCPM (Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals)

Supply Chain Management includes all the inter-company processes,i.e. the processes which extend outside the company boundaries

and span over the whole supply chain (logistics, new product

development, marketing, etc.).

Supply chain management

!  Focus: focus on the Supply Chain as a whole;competition among supply chains; logistics as a

differentiation lever

!  Methodologies: analysis of supply chainperformance, supply chain integration, collaborative

planning models (VMI, CPFR)

!  Organization: “Supply Chain Manager”

!  Awareness: the Council of Logistics Management

becomes the Council of Supply Chain ManagementProfessionals

Strategic approach where:

!  Competitiveness of the company is strongly impacted by

the actions of the other supply chain members

!  Competitiveness is, first of all, between different supplychains (and not between companies of the same supply

chain)

Strategic implications

!  Competitiveness of the company can be improved

focusing on the interface processes with the other supplychain members, through integration and collaboration

!  In many cases the action on the interface processes is

more effective (in terms of impact on KPIs) than that on

internal processes

Supply Chain Based Competition

What is the amount of inventory (of finished products) in thewarehouses of manufacturers and retailers?

!  40 days of inventory (on average) in the warehouses of the

manufacturers (including both cycle and safety stock)

!  20 days of inventory in the warehouses of the retailers

(both distribution centres and backrooms) (including

safety, cycle and speculative stock)

What is the average value of the on-shelf availability in thestores of the retailers?

!  93% as an average of all the the different types of products.This means that 7 times out of 100, consumer does not find

what he is looking for (Source: GS1 Europe)

!  Approximately 80  ! /cycle (from order to payment), of which

50% due to the management of the activities generated byerrors…

What is the average saturation of the means of transportation

used by manufacturers to deliver their products to retailers?

!  Approximately 70% for the single trips (do hope that returns

are not empty!)…

1. Logistics Execution

Logistics Execution includes the design and managementof the processes that support the flow of materials

(handling, storage, physical transformation and transport

activities) and data/documents along the supply chain

!  It is the most traditional “scope” of Logistics (but it is only part of its

most comprehensive scope)

!  It is the base upon which all the other stacks are built (therefore itrepresents the “basics” a good logistician must know)

2. Supply Chain Planning

Supply chain planning is the process that plans for theadjustment of the operational capacity and for the

execution of the operational activities linking the demand

and the supply sides of the supply chain. It aims at

“getting the supply chain aligned and tuned”

!  This is the stack that “plans and manages” the operational level of

logistics

!  It should be an integrated process (and not merely a collection ofphases)

!  It should consider both the structure of the distribution network and

all the specific operational constraints

(3) the “make or buy” policies

!  These decisions must be strongly aligned with theoverall company strategy (markets served, product range,

Importance of Logistics and

Supply Chain Management

 In a nutshell the importance of logistics and supply chainmanagement (L&SCM) depends on the following reasons:

!  L&SCM are non-discretionary activities that must beaccomplished to deliver the right value to the right

customer

!  These activities are costly: L&SCM related costsrepresent on average between 5 and 15% of revenues

and more if a supply chain perspective is taken

!  They have a substantial impact on the assets of acompany (inventories, manufacturing plants, transport

vehicles, …)
