Introduction to the company and its history
Strategic Logistics Management Inc (SLM) is a logistics company based in the United States of America (USA). Many factories in New York City and Los Angeles are managed and coordinated by the group. Brook Brothers Company, which sells garments and is based in New York, has come into a partnership agreement with SLM. The contract's scope of work covers warehousing and distribution facilities for clothing packaged in various sizes of cardboard boxes. Pallets about 40 inches by 48 inches are used to compile the cardboard boxes. SLM has been tasked with planning logistics for Brook Brothers shipments from New York to Sydney, Australia, under a newly signed deal. The garments will be transported to and from Australia by SLM Inc. It has also set a monthly goal for freight units equal to 200 20-foot (TEU) of imports and exports. This paper will now concentrate on a logistics strategy that SLM will use to improve its ability to compete in Australian market segments.
The Products' Physical Characteristics
The cardboard boxes are stacked and boxed; a single box measures 48 inches (4 feet) by 40 inches (3.3 feet). The pallet's longer hand measures 4 feet, which is equivalent to 0.2 TEU when divided by 20. The gross weight planned for shipment is two hundred feet, which is equivalent to twenty TEU. It is made up of wooden boxes that will be shipped in a single crate that measures 4 feet by 3.3 feet wide by 3.5 feet tall. The container's gross volume would be 46 square feet. The load's volume per delivery is less than 1 TEU, so it's considered a small consignment. Small deliveries are compact and can be easily transported without the use of heavy transportation. Big consignments, on the other hand, will exceed 1TEU and, depending on their scale, will necessitate comparatively heavy transport.
Transportation mode
For any logistics firm, choosing the mode of transportation is important because it helps to ensure sustainability, cut costs, and ensure the productivity of the job. In other words, choosing the right mode of transportation would save money and satisfy the needs of consumers at any stage of the transaction. If a business prefers a bad mode of transportation, such as driving to transport goods abroad, it will incur additional costs that can be avoided if a better mode of transportation is used. To prevent compromising the transportation method, it is important to use a mode of transportation that can accommodate heavy goods while transporting a more decadent item. If two modes of transportation are capable of performing the function, it is critical to choose the one that will produce the least amount of waste and fulfill the importer's demands in the shortest amount of time.
Since the mode of transportation has an impact on SLM's efficiency and service provision, it must be carefu ...

RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
from
International Encyclopedia of Marriage and Family
Resource management
is the process in which individuals and families use what they have to get what they want. It begins with thinking and planning and ends with the evaluation of actions taken. Three fundamental concepts in resource management are
values, goals
, and
decision making.
Values such as honesty and trust are principles that guide behavior. They are desirable or important and serve as underlying motivators. Values determine goals, which are sought-after end results. Goals can be implicit or explicit. They can be short-term, intermediate-, or long-term. Decisions are conclusions or judgments about some issue or matter.
Decision making
involves choosing between two or more alternatives and follows a series of steps from inception to evaluation.
Through choices, individuals and families define their lives and influence the lives of others. The study of resource management focuses on order, choices, and control, and how people use time, energy, money, physical space, and information. As an applied social science, it is an academic field that is fundamental to our understanding of human behavior. "The knowledge obtained through the study of management is evaluated in light of its ability to make an individual's or family's management practice more effective" (Goldsmith 2000, p. 5).
Individuals and families have characteristic ways of making decisions and acting called their
management style.
Although similar styles are exhibited within families (such as a tendency to be on time or to finish tasks to completion), there are also wide ranges of styles within families making the study of management intrinsically interesting, especially from a
socialization
point of view. Why do such differences exist and how does the individual's style mesh with that of the other members' styles in the family?
Measuring devices, techniques, or instruments that are used to make decisions and plan courses of action are called management tools. For example, time is a resource and a clock or stopwatch is a management tool.
Resources can be divided up into human and material resources, assets that people have at their disposal.
Material resources
(e.g., bridges, roads, houses) decline through use whereas
human resources
(e.g., the ability to read, ride a bicycle) improve or increase through use.
Human capital
describes the sum total of a person's abilities, knowledge, and skills. Education is one way to develop human capital. Related to this is the concept of social capital. The term

The Fresh Detergent CaseEnterprise Industries produces Fresh, AnastaciaShadelb
The Fresh Detergent Case
Enterprise Industries produces Fresh, a brand of liquid detergent. In order to more effectively manage its inventory, the company would like to better predict demand for Fresh. To develop a prediction model, the company has gathered data concerning demand for Fresh over the last 33 sales periods. Each sales period is defined as one month. The variables are as follows:
·
Period = Time period in month
·
Demand = Y = demand for a large size bottle of Fresh (in 100,000)
·
Price = the price of Fresh as offered by Ent. Industries
·
AIP = the Average Industry Price
·
ADV = Enterprise Industries Advertising Expenditure (in $100,000) to Promote Fresh in the sales period.
·
DIFF = AIP - Price = the "price difference" in the sales period
Only the trend of PRICE is negative. Other four variables have positive trends. However, the R2 values suggest that for ADV and DEMAND only the linear model is explained by the data points moderately (66% and 51% respectively). For all the other three variables, the R2 values are too poor to accept the models as adequates because very few percent of data points actually represents the linear model.
As expected, the Demand is negatively correlated with Price. But the regression line equation cannot be relied upon due to poor R2 value. For other three variables, there is a positive correlation. Out of these, for the ADV variable, the regression line can be adequate for the R2 value is moderately higher.
Interpretation
Strong positive correlation is found between
1. PERIOD and ADV
2. PERIOD and DEMAND
3. AIP and DIFF
4. DIFF and ADV
5. DIFF and DEMAND
6. ADV and DEMAND
Strong negative correlation exists between
1. PRICE and DIFF

TBSB NetworkThe Best Sports Broadcasting Network is home to alAnastaciaShadelb
TBSB Network
The Best Sports Broadcasting Network is home to all college football games, events, and updates. From Alabama and Clemson to Mount Union and Wheaton College, Division 1 to Division 3 top to bottom 24/7 college football. Being a college football athlete myself and having played at Clemson University and now here at University of Maryland I understand the different levels of exposure programs and athletes get even across power 5 conferences there is some exposure but different and some more than others. What my goal and plan for TBSB is that we bring the same amounts of awareness and exposure to their programs that the Clemson’s and Alabama’s receive to their programs.
After conducting many research experiments on former college athletes as well as parents, family members of student athletes, and fans I learned that they are not happy with not having the chance to always support and watch programs who aren’t top tier and do not have the same lime light as others. I also found that there is not one particular network that shows all power 5 conference football games on Saturdays, there are different networks you have to pay for monthly to keep up with all football games from different conferences. For example, you have ACC Network, Big 10 Network, and SEC Network for each of these networks you need a different subscription and or certain cable plan. With TBSB we are putting all of these networks under one station to give families, fans, and much more the best possible experience.
I feel like this network will be beneficial to many different people starting with the players. Giving all players who are not receiving a lot of exposure this prime television opportunity for family and friends to watch and cheer them on. Also giving these players opportunities to be evaluated, and scouted by the NFL for those who have that desire. This network will also be beneficial to the university itself, football programs have a chance to increase school’s revenue at any given time. Putting these different schools in the lime light will increase the chances to help up school’s revenue. Last but not least TBSB will be beneficial to families, friends, fans, and much more the people who are not able to make it to the games but would still love to support and cheer on these programs. With the click of a button all of their problems are solved with TBSB giving them the chance to watch not only the games of their loved ones but any other college football games of their choice.
Currently, I am in the process of finalizing the concept and sources of revenue, as of now my guaranteed sources of revenue will come from customers who sign up they will pay a monthly fee. My next source of revenue I want to work with television companies to have TBSB added to their channel listings and work with these different companies for another stream of revenue. These are my biggest “road blocks” at the moment. I also will have to find workers who are willing and dedica ...

There is a saying that states one can only learn through doing it, practically and physically. It is the explanation as to why it is very important to implement the skills acquired in theory into practice to ascertain one’s competence. This is even more crucial in the medical field as they have no choice but just to be perfect at what they are doing, the only secret is through practice. Practicums connect the two worlds of theory and classwork, thus breaking the monotony alongside connecting what was taught in class with what happens in the field. They are important as apart from sharpening the student’s skills, they also open a window of opportunity and build up connections that will come in handy for the student later on. They will feel the experience and the pressure that comes with it thus preparing themselves accordingly.
Statement of the Problem
Timing is essential in the nursing field and the Emergency Room is notorious for its long wait times. The goal of a clinical laboratory is to deliver medically useful results for patients on a timely basis. This goal can be hindered by the new paradigm of the modern laboratory – “do more with less" (Lopez, 2020). When implementing new care models for patients, the patient perspective is critical. The objective of this study was to describe and develop an understanding of the information needs of patients in the ED waiting room concerning ED wait time notification (Calder, 2021). As a patient arrives at the ER waiting area, it's critical to have lab results for the provider to evaluate. I can give you an example of a patient that waited in the waiting room for over 3 hours, no labs were completed because they were waiting for the patient to go back into a room. The patient was suffering from a heart attack and his troponins were elevated and no one knew until 3 hours later. If POC labs were done on all patients as soon as they arrived, mistakes like these can be avoided. Completed POC blood can cut the wait times in half and the laboratory also won't be backed up on resulting lab specimens.
PICOT Question
Question: Is there a significant decrease in Emergency Department patient length of stay (LOS) for those whose blood was analyzed using POC testing versus those whose blood was analyzed using laboratory testing?

1. Do you believe that Joe Trosh has the right to carry a concealed weapon in the hospitaldue to being harassed for visiting casinos?
Part IA: The Purpose of the Report and the Problem
The purpose of the report is to solve the problem of whether or not Joe Trosh has the right to carry a concealed weapon in the hospital as a reason for self-defense against discrimination and harassment from the staff of a rural hospital in Oklahoma. According to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, harassment is a form of employment that violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Age Discrimination Employment Act of 1967, and Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 ("Equal Employment Opportunity Commission," n.d.).
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission outlined that “harassment’’ based on race/color discrimination means unwelcome conduct that is based on color, religious background, sex, national origin, older age, disability, or genetic information that is based on medical history ("U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission," n.d.).
Hirsch (2018) stated that the impact of discrimination on racism often creates challenges that the human resource manager is responsible for overcoming. In a workplace, racism is evident through macroaggression, defined as indirect, subtle, and unintentional acts of discrimination against marginalized groups.
Harassment based on stereotypes can affect an organization’s decision-making process in many ways, such as making a quick judgment without looking at the consequences. It also makes people feel preconceptions about a specific group of people leading to harsh treatment.in addition, harassment of stereotypes leads to fixed beliefs about the place of women and men in society.
Managers need to know about the Second Amendment right to bear arms and U.S. Supreme Court Cases that examine this issue because it will protect the hospital from legal matters ("Cornell Law School," n.d.). The District of Columbia v. Heller case in which the supreme court held in 2008 on the second Amendment regarding firearm possession. It gives one the right to possess firearms, independent of service in state militia use the guns for self-defense.
A potential legal issue the Supervisor must consider is how to handle discipline decisions that involve employees who have experienced discrimination through harassment by co-workers. According to the Oklahoma Self-Defense Act, it is “not right for a person to identify themselves as a licensed handgun or as lawfully in possession of any other firemen if the law does not demand information."
Part 1B The Research Experience
To perform my research, I began with online research. I used Google and searched for articles rights of carrying weapons to work as a form of self-defense and discrimination and harassment in the place of work.

INTRODUCTION1.1 Background to research problem
Health care is critical in any society. Managing patient’s data goes a long way in ensuring good treatment measures are taken. Health care information therefore must be collected correctly and stored in a manner which abides by the principled of confidentiality, integrity and accessibility (Kaushal et al., 2009). Data regarding a patient should be kept confidential as much as possible and only retrieved when needed. A good health records management system should be able to confidentially store patient’s data. Each patient should have an account within the system where their data is stored. Access to this data should be given on privileges basis and only to individuals who will use it for treatment of the patient. The patient’s data in a good health information management system should be of high integrity. Data should be collected from the source (the patient) and recorded during the collection process. Having an intermediary stage where data is recorded in in a secondary avenue before being transferred to the primary system could lead to errors thus compromising its integrity. A good health information management system should also ...

Title of Paper: Facebook Website
I. Introduction
A. Attention grabbing sentence about topic
Facebook, which emerged as a standalone website, is used worldwide. Skyrocketing revenues' simplified version of the term perception is a way of perceiving or viewing things and refers to how the brain knows how things are or processes things (Mosquera et al.,2020).
B. Thesis statement
Facebook, which emerged as a standalone website, is used worldwide. Facebook has emerged as one of the 21st century's largest companies, with a consumer base of people who understand the word internet.
II. First paragraph main point – topic sentence
The case in this study involves deciphering the website perception elements and related responses to the same crucial points as follows:
A. Supporting details (in-text citation for outside resource used as support/evidence)
1. Details about the supporting details
Sensory response refers to the way we respond to specific website visual elements. The website contains both a design pattern and a logo which most individuals worldwide are aware of today.
2. Details about the supporting details
The image of the logo is a letter f-like. The most dominant colour in the ad on Facebook is blue and white shades used to design and highlight the tangible symbol.
B. Supporting details (in-text citation)
There are also lines and shapes in the logo, and as mentioned, the logo lines include lines and a square box forming a bold character, 'f' and highlighting the Facebook company name (Plantin et al.,2018). Contrast and balance are also incorporated. There is contrast present and light colours in the image that easily distinguish the Facebook symbol from other symbols such as WhatsApp and YouTube. The balance is indicated in the proper depiction of the 'F' symbol, highlighting everything around the same.
C. Transition sentence
On the other hand, perceptual response refers to the number of groups of persons attracted to the ad and those not attracted.
III. Second paragraph main point – topic sentence
Though perceptual response targets a potential user base involving many people from any age group, ethnicity, or age, it is more dominant among the youth, in my view.
A. Supporting details (in-text citation)
The aged have no more time in the Facebook like the youth who are in desire remain informed and have interest in sharing their feelings and information through the platform (Plantin et al.,2018).

Experience
During my clinical placement in a neurosurgical unit, we would occasionalJy exa mine epilepsy
patients to document any seizures. These patients rarely require substantial nursing care, and
most are self-sufficient with only 1-2 prescriptions administered every six hours. I was working
an early shift, and my buddy nurse assigned me to three patients, one of whom was under
examination for a seizure. My buddy nurse handed me the drawer keys and indicated the
medication was in the side drawer when I went with my nurse to provide the patient medication.
Looking over the initial purchase, I began my safety check prior to dispensing the prescription
and discovered that it had expired in February 2019. I requested that my preceptor come over
and take a look at the package. She realized the medication was out of date when she noticed the
expiration date. She then went out of the room with the packaging. When she returned, she
indicated that she had reported the event to the NUM. I then inquired if there was anything else
we needed to do, but I was respectfully told to stay out of it. I took a set of vitals on the patient,
which were all normal, and the buddy nurse was given a new pack of medication that was still
usable. I felt accomplished at the end of my shift since I had followed the procedure for providing
the correct medication and had identified the problem. Being a part. of event reporting and alerting
the doctors, on the other hand, would have been a great experience. Overall, I followed NSHQS's
safety requirements and medication standards when performing my nursing responsibilities.

Topic
How can the fourth industrial revolution technologies be used to address the current climatic issues facing the world?
General Reasoning
I selected this research topic because climatic change has become a major concern today, with world leaders and researchers trying to develop ways to address this concern. There are several adverse impacts of climatic change on the world. One of the adverse effects is that humans and animals face new challenges for their survival due to the consequences of climatic change. Climatic change has resulted in increased temperature levels in the world, rising sea levels, shrinking glaciers, and increased ocean temperatures. It has resulted in frequent and intense droughts, storms, and heat waves threatening animals' lives. It has also resulted in biodiversity loss due to limited adaptability and the economic implications of these climatic changes. One of the ways that can be used to deal with climatic issues is through the use of technology which can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The fourth revolution technologies such as the internet of things, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing can play a vital role in addressing these climatic challenges.
Potential thesis
The fourth industrial revolution technologies such as the internet of things, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing can play a vital role in addressing these climatic challenges; therefore, it is important to determine how these technologies can be utilized to achieve the environmental objectives of the world.
Thesis map for your Literature Review
The literature review will consist of articles that have been published over the five years. It will consist of journals and articles that have researched fourth industrial revolutions that can be used to address climatic change.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Logistics Plan for International Transport and Warehousing of
Goods
Name
Institutional Affiliation
Date
Introduction to the company and its history
Strategic Logistics Management Inc (SLM) is a logistics
company based in the United States of America (USA). Many
factories in New York City and Los Angeles are managed and
coordinated by the group. Brook Brothers Company, which sells
garments and is based in New York, has come into a partnership
agreement with SLM. The contract's scope of work covers
warehousing and distribution facilities for clothing packaged in
various sizes of cardboard boxes. Pallets about 40 inches by 48
inches are used to compile the cardboard boxes. SLM has been
tasked with planning logistics for Brook Brothers shipments
from New York to Sydney, Australia, under a newly signed
deal. The garments will be transported to and from Australia by
SLM Inc. It has also set a monthly goal for freight units equal
to 200 20-foot (TEU) of imports and exports. This paper will
now concentrate on a logistics strategy that SLM will use to
improve its ability to compete in Australian market segments.
2. The Products' Physical Characteristics
The cardboard boxes are stacked and boxed; a single box
measures 48 inches (4 feet) by 40 inches (3.3 feet). The pallet's
longer hand measures 4 feet, which is equivalent to 0.2 TEU
when divided by 20. The gross weight planned for shipment is
two hundred feet, which is equivalent to twenty TEU. It is made
up of wooden boxes that will be shipped in a single crate that
measures 4 feet by 3.3 feet wide by 3.5 feet tall. The container's
gross volume would be 46 square feet. The load's volume per
delivery is less than 1 TEU, so it's considered a small
consignment. Small deliveries are compact and can be easily
transported without the use of heavy transportation. Big
consignments, on the other hand, will exceed 1TEU and,
depending on their scale, will necessitate comparatively heavy
transport.
Transportation mode
For any logistics firm, choosing the mode of transportation
is important because it helps to ensure sustainability, cut costs,
and ensure the productivity of the job. In other words, choosing
the right mode of transportation would save money and satisfy
the needs of consumers at any stage of the transaction. If a
business prefers a bad mode of transportation, such as driving to
transport goods abroad, it will incur additional costs that can be
avoided if a better mode of transportation is used. To prevent
compromising the transportation method, it is important to use a
mode of transportation that can accommodate heavy goods
while transporting a more decadent item. If two modes of
transportation are capable of performing the function, it is
critical to choose the one that will produce the least amount of
waste and fulfill the importer's demands in the shortest amount
of time.
Since the mode of transportation has an impact on SLM's
efficiency and service provision, it must be carefully prepared
(Wilding & Juriado, 2004). The cost of shipping, the worthiness
of the goods, the size and weight of the items, and the urgency
of delivery are all considerations to remember. Prior to
3. shipment to their destination, the boxes were filled as a single
load. In this case, the consignment is smaller, implying that it
can be shifted more easily. Clothing is therefore long-lasting
and does not need to be shipped quickly. This suggests that the
importance and priority of one package would be reduced due to
the combination of low weight and non-urgency. Leadership can
make transportation decisions by taking into account all of the
aspects that influence their choices.
SLM has the option of choosing from four modes of
mobility multimodal, sea, air, road, and rail. Since the
difference between the two countries is thousands of kilometers,
sea and air transportation are the most cost-effective and time-
efficient modes of transportation. Since the two continents are
divided by sea, rail and road transportation are not viable
options because the system does not accommodate these modes.
The items in question, clothing, can only be transported by air
or sea. These two modes of transportation are similarly
convenient, but air travel would be much more suitable due to
the small load weight, the expense and quality of the materials,
and the need for lightweight clothing. Furthermore, the ships
are built to carry huge loads, making this an expensive and
extravagant choice for SLM.
About the fact that geographical boundaries prohibit the
use of rail and road transport, SLM needs both to carry clothes
locally in the United States and Australia. This emphasizes the
importance of a multimodal transportation infrastructure.
Multimodal transportation is a form of transportation in which a
series of players provide transportation services under the
control of a single operator. This ensures that whether goods are
delivered to an airport or a port by air or sea, another form of
transportation, such as the lane, will be used to carry the
products to the destination. The following are some of the
advantages that SLM can profit from multimodal transportation:
· As a result of the cost and time savings, efficiency has
increased.
· Reduce the amount of time spent waiting at trans-shipment
4. sites.
· Ensuring that the goods in transit are delivered in a timely
manner.
· Reduces the amount of paperwork and formalities that must be
completed.
· Assists in dealing with only one organization.
· Consolidation resulted in fewer loads being limited.
In Australia and the United States, multimodal transportation is
essential for SLM.
Multimodal delivery is the safest choice for the business
because it means that if air transport is used to carry garments
to airports, only ground transport, such as vans, can be used to
bring goods to the final location for door to door distribution.
This is due to the adaptability of road transportation.
Furthermore, from ports, road transport can have the same
benefits, making multimodal transportation mode very
important for SLM locally in the United States or Australia.
Though rail transport can be used in lieu of road transport for
local logistics, land transportation is inflexible in terms of door -
to-door distribution, making road transport the best choice
because rail transport is built for heavy materials and the
shipment is light.
SLM has warehouses that it can use to transport supplies
quickly.
The type of warehouse selected will decide how quickly
supplies will be distributed. SLM may use the following types
of warehouses to allow for fast clothing delivery.
Dispersion warehouses and distribution centers
This warehouse has a wide capacity or room, making it
easy to transport large volumes of merchandise in a limited
amount of time. They are, by definition, points in the supply
chain where products are bought from suppliers and retailers
and then quickly delivered to customers. These include
computerized controls and systems that allow goods to be
moved, loaded, and offloaded as quickly as possible. Not only
does this allow for fast movement, but it also allows for great
5. coordination with all stakeholders. This storage facilities are
located near distribution hubs to reduce shipping time. In
certain situations, such as in fast food or perishable
merchandise, delivery centers handle the goods for less than a
day. The majority of commodities arrive in the early morning
(dawn) and are transferred/distributed by night.
Private warehouses.
The government does not maintain these storage facilities;
however, private individuals do. They are either corporately
owned, rented, or leased. Unlike public warehouses, which are
operated by the state, owning or renting a private warehouse
allows a company to have complete ownership and maintenance
of the facility. Depending on the needs of the management,
private warehouses may be used if complete control is needed.
If the SLM is concerned about costs, however, public
warehouses would be a safer option
Warehouse Automation
With so many automated systems available, it's no wonder
that the warehousing industry has taken advantage of them as
well. Automated warehouses are, as one would expect, almost
fully automated. These stores use the new software equipment,
cranes, and carriers to manage and carry out their tasks, using
relatively little manpower for monitoring.
Documents for Import and Export
The transportation and logistics sector relies heavily on
paperwork because it protects all involved parties, including the
transporting firm, the seller, and the buyer. To make the
procedure of selling and importing products into the United
States easier, all parties involved must provide adequate
paperwork. This section would go through the most common
documents used in the logistics industry, as well as the ones
that are needed when exporting and importing. The types of
papers needed in this exercise are influenced by the exporting
and importing countries' individual specifications. When a
document is not adequately packed, the shipment in transit will
6. face several difficulties on the way to its final destination. The
first challenge is that the shipment would have difficulty
clearing customs in the United States; there could also be a
trouble handling payments with a letter of credit, which may
cause delays and result in mismatch charges; and the shipper
will have problems clearing the merchandise on delivery. The
customs division of the destination government, on the other
hand, has the power to require the shipment as well as all
parties involved in the trade. The following papers are needed
when importing and exporting goods between the United States
and America, as well as when distributing products:
Invoice for commercial use,
It contains shipping jargon that outlines the entire export
transaction from beginning to end. It provides essential
information about both actors, including the customer, freight
forwarder, banks, airlines, and import brokers; if they are not
completed properly, payments or penalties can be incurred in
the United States.
A bill of lading is a document that describes the contents of a
shipment.
This is the most common paper used in foreign trade
between the merchandise owner and the courier. Internal
monitoring must be in effect in any company to deter fraud.
Internal management includes division of responsibilities,
which prohibits one person from wielding too much power
within a company. There are no two internal control systems
that are alike. Many, on the other hand, adhere to a series of key
philosophies that have become common management procedure.
Internal monitoring will aid in the streamlining of processes and
the prevention of theft. To deter asset laundering, a bill of
lading is one of the important documents that must be carefully
handled and inspected.
It is compiled by the carrier and issued to the shipper,
listing the form of goods shipped, the amount of goods
delivered and the goods' location. This record must still be
7. present when the shipment arrives. When the box arrives at its
destination, the "Bill of lading" will even be used as a
"shipment receipt." As a result, Brook Brothers and SLM will
use it. It specifies where products are sent and where they are
sent.
Certificate of origin,
This is an official declaration the certifies that goods in an
export agreement were made or processed in a specific country.
Customs, tax clearing, and import tariff reductions all require
them. This is used to show that the goods were manufactured in
the United States, as well as for Australian businesses.
Certificate of Insurance
It certifies that the products being exported have been
insured against threats in order to ensure that they are
protected. This certificate is crucial, especially for goods being
transported by sea. The insurance provider will cover all costs
incurred by the items whether they are destroyed or stolen while
in transit. The insurance policy's aim is to cover any costs
involved with the products. The Certificate of Insurance
clarifies the authenticity of an insurance plan and summarizes
the policy's key provisions and words. A typical COI, for
example, includes the name of the holder of the policy, the
effective date of the policy, type of coverage, limitations of the
policy, and other relevant policy information. Without a
Certificate of Insurance, businesses will have a hard time
finding clients; most companies may not choose to shoulder the
cost of the costs accrued as a result of the supplier’s or
provider's behavior. A company owner or contractor who does
not have a COI will have trouble winning contracts. Due to the
fact that both companies and individuals hire employees, the
customer must be mindful that the business manager or
contractor is covered by liability insurance. This ensures that
the client will not be held liable if the contractor is responsibl e
for loss, accident, or poor workmanship.
8. Shippers’ export declaration,
In the United States, this is needed. It is used to compile export
statistics as well as to track and manage exports.
The letter of instruction from the shippers,
A Distributor's Letter of Instruction is used for a variety of
reasons, including shipping and paperwork.
The cost of transportation
This is a legally binding agreement between a seller and a
courier. It specifies who is liable for payment. It also discusses
who will be responsible for paying the carrier bill for shipping
services.
Checklists for packing.
Describes the order in which the goods are arranged and
counted. Assist officials in calculating tax and other costs.
• Incoterms 2020 – Expense Allocation
• Incoterms 2020 – Free Alongside Ship (FAS)
When goods are transported by sea, this term is used. This
specifies who is liable for the goods' vulnerability while they
are docked alongside a port. It specifies that the sellers are
responsible for the costs of export formalities, supplying
customers with proof of delivery, and control operations.
Buyers, on the other hand, would be responsible for all costs
associated with import and transit, as well as the expense of
securing a carriage deal, additional costs, and costs associated
with the conclusion and fulfillment of commitments.
• Free on Board, Free alongside Ship, CFR, and CIF are
Incoterms.
• Delivered Duty Paid Incoterms (DDP).
The customer is responsible for customs, fees, and
transportation from point A to point B.
• Free on Board Incoterms
The buyer and seller will share the costs, and the risks and costs
will be split 50/50.
Just-In-Time management system (JIT)
This is a stock management device that coordinates the
delivery of supplies, stocks, or inventory with the
9. manufacturing and fulfillment plan. Companies use this
inventory approach to improve productivity and minimize
duplication by receiving products only as required for the
manufacturing process, lowering inventory costs. This approach
necessitates producers correctly forecasting demand Javadian
(Kootanaee, Babu & Talari, 2013). Compared to standard
inventory models, JIT inventory schemes have a number of
advantages. Fast production runs enable producers to rapidly
move from one commodity to the next. This approach also saves
money by reducing the need for warehouse space. Companies
often waste less money on raw materials and they only import
what they need to produce the goods they've ordered.
They are only distributed when they are needed in the
manufacturing process. Implementing robotics, cloud
networking, and barcoding software are all part of the process.
Many companies use this concept as the foundation and
cornerstone of their competition.
The process entails applying three technologies: cloud
computing, barcoding, and automation. These can aid in
optimizing stock levels and managing stock levels in a factory
in order to avoid overstocking and understocking. Excellent and
efficient coordination between interested parties is required to
effectively enforce this inventory management process. This
enables goods to be transported efficiently and on-demand
through air transport, reducing waste and increasing
productivity and effectiveness. In a factory, just-in-time stock
management ensures that stock levels are maintained at
optimum levels. This eliminates the risk of overstocking or
understocking. This is achievable and would go a long way
toward achieving success if new technology and good
connectivity are combined with efficient air transportation. This
will allow for more efficient usage of warehouse space while
also lowering stockholding and security costs.

Shipment restructuring is crucial in ensuring that a
company's costs are properly handled and maintained. This aids
in cost-cutting, revenue-generation, and sustainability. This
means that inventories can be held at levels that result in the
lowest possible expense and the highest possible benefit
(Hausman & Subramaniam, 2012). This has an impact on the
method of transportation that a company uses.
Security and protection in the warehouse is a must, since it
reduces the chance of burglary and loss of consumer products.
This entails keeping track of risky actions and behaviors and
eliminating them. This will result in more effective and secure
processes, which will improve SLM's financial results.
Both storage and transportation logistics must be
coordinated with packaging logistics. These three regions share
one thing in common: they are all involved in the manufacture
and delivery of goods (see also Distribution Center). Packaging
logistics is responsible for the supervision, coordination, and
optimization of a company's packaging processes. As a result,
packaging logistics is responsible for coordinating the interests
of storage and transportation logistics, as well as reaching an
agreement with the packaging maker on the best approach.
Logistical packaging differs from other types of packaging
in that it is used to protect products on board from corrosion
11. and harm (Saghir, 2004). This would preserve product
consistency, resulting in a better SLM brand and increased
profitability. One of the expense factors is the purchase of
equipment. This involves buying computers and other IT-related
equipment that facilitates effective contact and efficient
material processing in and out of stores. If JIT or another
inventory management system is to be used, IT infrastructure is
also required.
One of the most important budget line elements is
inventory management. This is a crucial feature that means
there is no overstocking or understocking, resulting in lower
stock retention costs. The financial gain of carrying optimal
volumes of stock would be very beneficial to SLM.
The importance of communication, information
technology, and transportation cannot be overstated. Under the
"logistics and supply chain," this coordinates all coordination
mechanisms and knowledge flow between different
stakeholders. It also assists with the planning of modes of
transportation.
