Logistic Industry Overview
LOGISTICS has always been a central and essential feature of all economic activity. Despite this importance, there is a long history of organizations paying little attention to their logistics. They traditionally concentrated their efforts into manufacturing products and considered the movement and storage of materials as an uninteresting errand that formed part of the overheads of doing business. However, over the years, the status of logistics has continued to improve, primarily due to recognition by the organizations of the following critical factors:     Appreciation of high logistics cost and opportunities for major savings. Increasing competition for both users and providers of logistics, who have to continually improve operations to remain competitive New types of operations, which can force changes to logistics – such as just-in-time, total quality management, flexible operations, time compression etc. Need for improved technology for identifying, locating and tracking materials
