• Several companies are making a paradigm shift by looking at logistics as an opportunity rather than as a cost centre.
• They are leveraging logistics to improve the service level to the customers, to accelerate the speed of launching new products, and to enter new markets faster than before within and beyond the national boundaries.
“…in its relationship to strategy, logistics assumes the character of a dynamic force without which strategic conception is simply a paper plan.”
-Theo Vogel sang, US Navy

• The word logistics has its origin in the French verb loger to lodge or to quarter. Also, Latin word logisticus, meaning the science of computing and calculating.
Its original use was to describe the science of movement, supplying & maintenance of military forces in the field.
US army officially used this word after WW-II.
• Today logistics has acquired a wider meaning and is used in business to refer to movement of raw materials from suppliers to the manufacturer and finally, the movement of finished goods to the consumers.

integrated into the global economy
• World trade is expanding at an exponential rate
• Technologies are advancing & becoming an integrating force
• Customers are demanding value for the money
• Marketers are experiencing competitive pressure, and
• Businesses are struggling for growth, but also for survival.

“The ultimate objective of a logistics function is to support corporate goals by delivering products to the consumer at the time and
place of his choice. However, the objective must be balanced against the cost of
providing service”.

Ideally the time taken for registering the order should be one minute. After that the pizza goes to the guy in the
‘make line’. He takes two minutes, and then oven time is five minutes. When the pizza comes out of the oven it is
inspected. One minute goes into quality check and packing. Another minute goes in checking the route and confirming
the order one last time.
The moment he is leaving, the delivery boy shouts the out-of-the-door time, which is normally between
10 to 12 minutes. •.

Then everybody yells out ‘drive safe’. When he returns he punches the time in. At the end of the day the average delivery time for all his order is checked. This helps the
manager figure out which orders were not delivered in time. The next day, the store manager calls each one of those
whose orders got delayed and apologizes.
The essence is process sequencing, just-in-time inventory availability, and time management for the success in this
service operations logistics.

Foreign banks operating in India were the pioneers in ATMs in India. However, the lead taken by ICICI,HDFC, and the Citi Bank gave the face-lift to the ATM concept.
The success of ATMs depend on the effectiveness of the networking. The logistics supply chain for the currency
notes needs to be very efficient so as to ensure the availability of the currency notes at the stroke of a button.

Other logistics aspect is the information on the credit limits available to the customer at any point of cash
withdrawal.
Data warehousing and data mining with automatic updating for real-time information on credit worthiness are
the other essential support systems required for processing the customer request for cash withdrawal.

After WW-II, the Gulf War was the largest military operation, lasting for four days. The planning process of logistics operations was initiated many months before
the actual war started.
It involved the movement of over 1,25,000 ground troops to defend the area, stretching to 175 km long and 300 km deep in the Saudi Arabian desert. Around 500 tactical cargo trucks and 200 wheeled vehicles moved into place
within the short time frame of two weeks.

• The concept of logistics is based on the system approach. Logistics recognizes that all the activities of material movement across the business process are interdependent and need close coordination.
• These activities are to be managed as a system and not as functional silos. The functional areas of logistics, termed ‘Logistics Mix’ by Martin Christopher, consist of:

International Trade Logistics Logistics: At the Centre of World Trade
Logistics delivers value to customer through three phases:
1. Inbound Logistics• Operations preceding the manufacturing
• Movement of materials and components from supplier
2. Process Logistics• Operations directly related to processing
• Storage and movement of raw materials and components within the manufacturing premises
• Inventory management of stored materials and in-process goods is part of process logistics
3. Outbound Logistics• Warehousing, transportation and inventory management of
finished products.

The total logistics cost as percentage of the sales differs
with product categories.• For low unit value mass distributed products, the logistics
cost may be 30-40 percent of the sales value, which in the case of high value engineering items may not exceed 5-8 percent.
• With proper systems and controls, the logistical cost, which will be ultimately loaded on the product and borne by the customer, can be reduced.

Each value-adding activity is subject to internationalization; that is, it can be performed abroad instead of at home.
The most typical reasons for locating value-chain activities in particular countries are to reduce the costs of R&D and
production or to gain closer access to customers.

Order fulfillment is in the most general sense the complete process from point of sales inquiry to delivery of a
product to the customer. In the broader sense it refers to the way firms respond to customer orders.
The first research towards defining order fulfillment strategies was published by Mather (1988) and his
discussion of the P:D ratio.
Order Fulfillment
IILM-GSM
International Trade Logistics Logistics: At the Centre of World Trade
• P is defined as the production lead-time, i.e. how long it takes to manufacture a product
• D is the demand lead-time i.e. how long customers are willing to wait for the order to
be completed.
Based on comparing P and D, a firm has several basic strategic order fulfillment options.
Order Fulfillment
IILM-GSM
International Trade Logistics Logistics: At the Centre of World Trade
1. Engineer-to-Order (ETO) - (D>>P) Here, the product is designed and built to customer specifications; this approach is most common for large construction projects and one-off products, such as Formula 1 cars
2. Build-to-Order (BTO); syn: Make-to-Order (MTO) - (D>P) Here, the product is based on a standard design, but component production and manufacture of the final product is linked to the order placed by the final customer's specifications; this strategy is typical for high-end motor vehicles and aircraft
3. Assemble-to-Order (ATO) - (D<P) Here, the product is built to customer specifications from a stock of existing components. This assumes a modular product architecture that allows for the final product to be configured in this way; a typical example for this approach is Dell's approach to customizing its computers.
Strategic Order Fulfillment
IILM-GSM

4. Make-to-Stock (MTS); syn: Build-to-Forecast (BTF) - (D=0) Here, the product is built against a sales forecast, and sold to the customer from finished goods stock; this approach is common in the grocery and retail sectors.
5. Digital Copy (DC) - (D=0, P=0) Where products are digital assets and inventory is maintained with a single digital master. Copies are created on-demand, downloaded and saved on customers' storage devices.

• Today, competition has shifted from product to supply chains. The efficiency and effectiveness in material and information movement are possible only with integrated logistics operations.
• At a macro level, growth of a country’s economy depends on the availability of an excellent logistics infrastructure. The air links and port terminal facilities are equally important for boosting export trade.
• Material movement need to be speedy, reliable, and consistent in a cross-border business exchange process.

The future of logistics in India is very bright provided the issues such as abolition of octroi levy, rationalization
of customs formalities, privatization of ports, improvement in road and rail infrastructure are taken
care of through government initiatives with proper policy formulations.
With implementation of WTO directives, logistics services will be in great demand in future.
