International Logistics & Warehouse Management Thomas Tanel
This presentation is designed to take an astute quick look at international logistics and warehouse management, both in terms of today's global supply chain and in the demand flow management process, so you can know how to make the most of this strategically. You've probably heard something about these topics. You may even be somewhat familiar with them. But how much do you really know about their strategic importance?
In an international logistics and warehouse management system, cost-to-cost "trade-offs" available through systems analysis are easy to identify. One example is using premium transportation for small, time-phased purchased lots to reduce inventory investment and lower safety stock. Another might be using a distribution center for freight consolidation or Crossdocking to improve customer service levels and avoid material handling inefficiencies. Yet another might be the use of a blanket agreement (with a rolling forecast) with your supplier. By aligning supplier capacity to your customer schedules and your inventory goals, you gain pipeline visibility through automated order tracking and alerts in addition to lowering costs and raising customer service levels. The overall goal, to achieve a fully integrated logistics approach, is to realize maximum trade-offs among basic functional activities such as warehousing.
Traditional Logistics and Warehousing channels are indeed changing. As organizations move from mass production and mass distribution to lean manufacturing, postponement, and mass customization, creative approaches are needed in the management of logistics and warehousing. The challenge is always present, because different customers may demand different levels of service. Demand often cannot be forecasted, especially if one must deliver customized products or services exactly where the customer needs them on a global scale at multiple locations.
Businesses today must understand that they are competing on the basis of time more than on any other factor. The rigors of international logistics require that you take action to meet your customers’ demand for faster, more frequent, and more reliable deliveries. Your suppliers need to meet increasingly precise inbound schedules. Tomorrow’s customers are more likely to be in another country or continent than they are likely to be from across town, in another state, or in another province. In addition, diverse countries use different formats for weights and other units of measures, as well as many countries and localities have different licensing requirements and charge different duties, value-added taxes (VAT), and fees, which altogether amount to a major content-management challenge for your Global Trade and Logistics IT systems.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
