What role does logistics play in the supply chain?
On occasion, there is confusion between the terms ‘logistics’ and ‘supply chain’ because of their relation within a company’s or an industry’s structure.
This confusion can give rise to poor management and, in consequence, a breakdown in the organizational structure.
However, in terms of hierarchy, logistics is a part of the supply line that involves more than just a series of tasks.
To understand the role of logistics in the supply chain, ideally, its functions and objectives must be explained.
The functions of logistics go beyond transporting goods from one point to another.
There is a wide range of competencies in logistics which vary in accordance with the company’s needs and the peculiarities of the product.
Evidently, if the different functions listed below did not exist, it would not be possible deliver to the clients in the stipulated timelines while, at the same time, meeting their demands.
In fact, in order to effectively and efficiently deal with requests, the logistics process in the supply chain covers two stages:
Therefore, the objectives of logistics planning focus on 6 aspects:
This is not all. Managing the inventory helps optimize the entry of products, resulting in high efficiency of the logistics process.
Its importance lies in the fact that it allows the company to establish an efficient contract with its clients and, at the same time, it allows it to respond to consumer needs, at the very least, in a short period of time.
When we speak of picking, we are referring to the plan for collecting goods for dispatch to customers.
The key is always keeping it part of a whole, because, if the preliminary tasks are not performed, it will inevitably limit the movement of the goods.
At this stage, it is important to take into account the planning and efficiency of the routes.
One of the main advantages of this function is that, afterwards, the company has the necessary information to help them understand the entire process of purchasing a particular product. This enables them to conduct subsequent analyses so as to improve the logistics service.
Reverse logistics is applied from the moment an order is delivered. It includes accessing, returning and tracking customer satisfaction following the purchase.
Remember that every company depends on its clients.
For this reason, before seeking help to create your logistics strategy, you should answer try and two questions:Como ya lo hemos dicho, la bandera de la logística es satisfacer la demanda de las mejores condiciones de servicios, calidad y costo.
