Logistics Management controls the material flow processes between physical locations such as the manufacturer and the customer.
This could be railway, air or trucking transportation. Logistics Management also increasingly monitors warehousing and distribution
center operations.
Logistics is an integral piece of the supply chain, but is sometimes mistaken to be the supply chain. Changes to order fulfillment or delivery planning relating to logistics can create increased costs, potentially resulting in a loss of customer satisfaction. Lead times must be considered, where delays severely impact efficient operating processes. Routing and coordination within the logistics operations also drive cost factors, with inefficient cross-docking, poor routing management, and under or over utilization of logistics capacity.
Our team understands these implications and is dedicated to improving the client's current logistics model. By working with either the internal logistics team and/or 3PL partners, Kong and Allan will assess the optimal model for material movements, providing strategy development and implementation, which take into account flexibility, risk reduction, and cost sensitivity.
