2. GAINING COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE
THROUGH LOGISTICS
Competitive advantage is the ability of the organization to
differentiate itself, from its competition.
A competitive advantage must be difficult, if not impossible, to
duplicate. If its is easily copied or imitated, it is not considered as
competitive advantage.
Logistics can provide a unique opportunity to gain a competitive advantage in
the market. By optimizing your supply chain, reducing costs, and satisfying your
customers, you can stand out from the competition.

4. ADVANCED TRACKING
Information technology with trace-back capability is essential for
supply chain intelligence. Such computerized tracking must give
businesses along the supply chain a common platform to capture
and report on shipment information and history. The latest logistics
software uses “cloud computing” solutions through web-native
architecture, optimizing the entire transportation process so carriers
can exchange information, regardless of the format used, in order
to combine shipments for lower cost, and share shipment status
with carries and trading partners

5. SUSTAINABILITY
Comprehensive electronic tracking that aggregates loads and routes is a
planning solution that reduces fuel consumption and cost. It facilitates
up-to-the-minute route and load scheduling to take account of
everything from weather conditions to just-in-time shipment
adjustments. An intelligent supply chain will use cutting-edge electronic
systems to improve both fuel efficiency and cost effectiveness, by
eliminating guesswork and backtracking to find misplaced shipments. It
affords maximum flexibility in route and load planning so that delivery
problems and energy consumption are minimized, saving fuel, resources
and time

6. PAPERLESS PROCESSING
THE AVAILABILITY OF INFORMATION
ONLINE AND IN REAL TIME CAN LARGELY
ELIMINATE THE NEED TO PRINT OUT PAPER
REPORTS AND FORMS THAT CREATE
INEFFICIENCY, DELAY AND WASTE

7. MAJOR OBJECTIVES OF LOGISTICS
PLANNING
On-time delivery.
Effectively meets emergency needs.
Careful handling of merchandise.
Willingness to take back defective goods and resupply
them quickly.

8. LOGISTICS SYSTEMS
Geographic Information System (GIS) Analysis
We help our customers better understand the demand for their
products by providing a robust view of the supply chain through
the use of Geographic Information System (GIS) Analysis, which
allows us to map the location of customer and logistics facilities.
This enhanced view of their network reveals patterns,
relationships, and trends in geographic data to aid in their
decision-making

9. JUST IN TIME - JIT
A good example would be a car manufacturer
that operates with very low inventory levels,
relying on their supply chain to deliver the
parts they need to build cars. The parts needed
to manufacture the cars do not arrive before
nor after they are needed, rather they arrive
just as they are needed.

10. INTEGRATED LOGISTICS SYSTEMS
( ILS )
(ILS) IS USED BY MANY FIRMS, WITH THE
HELP OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY FOR
TRACKING AND CO-ORDINATING THE
FOLLOWING FUNCTIONS EFFECTIVELY:
1) MATERIAL MANAGEMENT
2) MATERIAL FLOW SYSTEMS
3) PHYSICAL DISTRIBUTION

11. GPS (GLOBAL POSITIONING
SYSTEM) :
A person equipped with this receiver can locate and move on land,
sea, air or space around the Earth. The GPS system has experienced
great success in the civilian and created a huge commercial
development in many areas
Example :-
Shipping
Roads
Location Of Trucks

12. REVERSE LOGISTICS
A Process That Involves The Cost-effective Movement
Of Products (Whether Raw Materials Or Finished
Goods) From The Consumer Or End User Back Up The
Supply Chain - For Example, Allowing Customers To
Return Packing Material To The Seller To Reuse, Or
Allowing Over-orders Of Material To Be Returned By
Distribution Centres To Suppliers. This Allows
Businesses To Reuse, Remanufacture Or Refurbish
Materials And Products

13. CONCLUSION
 Market Expansion :- You can target Asia, Europe, America, and all other
countries from a single location, with reduced time for the supply chain.
 Cost Advantage :- multiple stores , owning distribution centre , own
vehicles , maintaining vendor relationship , constant use of IT.
 Increased Revenue :- Effective logistics can lead to efficient production,
which in turn leads to increased sales and profits.
Transportation Management Systems , Advanced Tracking, One point distribution
centre.
“Logistics Is A Great Opportunity To Get The High Profits In The Business And To Give
The Tough Competition To The Competitors , To Become No.1 Position In The Market.”
