Abstract
In the current modern trade, the integration of economic affairs from design to
completion is an important priority, which determines all economic options of companies
to focus on satisfying the needs of consumers and users to their loyalty.
A supply chain consists of all parties involved, directly or indirectly, in fulfilling a
customer’s request. The supply chain not only includes the manufacturer and suppliers,
but also transporters, warehouses, retailers, and customers themselves.
Within each organization, such as a manufacturer, the supply chain includes all
functions involved in receiving and filling a customer’s request. These functions include,
but are not limited to, new product development, marketing, operations, distribution,
finance, and customer service.
This article stresses the essential aspects of supply chain management in modern
economics affairs, which are integrating under the functional aspect of the "hub and
spoke" model.

1. Introduction
The management of the supply-delivery chain aims to intensify the processes that
take place from the level of the suppliers of raw materials to that of the end customers. The
aim is to increase the added value and to improve the use of resources and the efficiency of
costs by bringing the required product at the indicated time and place with minimum
manipulations and without delays.
A supply chain means a flow of goods, services, money and information through
different situations (Tan, 2001). These units are legally independent companies, factories
or offices far from each other, geographically speaking, or organizational entities that have
the autonomy to take decisions regarding the information systems.
The concept of management of the supply-delivery chain is closely connected to
Michael Porter's idea (1985), which expresses it as a chain of values based on the
processual vision on organizations. According to this idea, an organization can be seen as a

subsystem composed of sub-systems, each of them with inputs, transformation
(conversion) processes and outputs.
Having in mind the logistic field, the management of the supply-delivery chain is
very important, because it covers the aspects that study the flows of materials and
information, the acquisitions and sales from an operative point of view, such as the
transports, orders and packing, but also aspects of a strategic nature, such as the
competition. Although there is a large number of definitions on the management of the

Here are the key points about risk and uncertainty in cost estimating:
- Risk management is important to identify potential issues that could impact cost and schedule. This includes conducting a risk assessment.
- Cost estimates should account for uncertainty since the future is unknown. This means providing a cost estimate as a probability distribution rather than a single point value.
- Probability distributions, like Monte Carlo simulation, allow the cost estimator to provide information on cost uncertainty. For example, they can say there is an 80% probability the program will cost less than a certain amount.
- Decision makers need this uncertainty information to determine contingency budgets. For example, a comptroller may want to know how much to budget to have an 80% confidence of

NHS-FP6008 Assessment 1 Context
Assessment 1 ContextHealth Care Economics: An Industry Overview
Providers and consumers of health care services have experienced significant changes following the enactment of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (Affordable Care Act). New terminology, concepts, methods of valuation, reimbursement, and decisions accompanied this landmark legislative change. Health care leaders are responsible for maintaining the financial viability of their organizations, aligning with both the organizational mission statement and directional strategy, and allocating finite resources. This task has become increasingly complex due in part to changes associated with the Affordable Care Act.
Conditions of participation in state- and federally-funded health care programs have generated new requirements, and some represent major challenges with respect to implementation and compliance. An example of this can be seen with the electronic medical records initiative, which has been an ongoing challenge. Leaders must grapple with questions such as:
· What is the actual cost to the organization?
· Are there funding shortfalls for full implementation?
· Are there unexpected additional costs that result from existing software incompatibilities?
· Are there additional security measures to ensure HIPAA compliance, such as staff training?
· What about patient satisfaction scores and how these can affect reimbursement?
The role of the health care executive in exercising sound economic decision making has become increasingly challenging, especially when one considers the potential adverse financial and operational consequences, or civil and criminal penalties, that can result from oversights or errors. Health care executives serve in a fiduciary role within their organizations and communities. To this end, it is helpful for leaders to understand applicable laws that drive economic decision making and its accepted tools from authoritative sources, industry standards, and risk management.
The Provider Organization
How have recent changes in health care affected your current or future desired role within the industry? Do you recognize new concepts and terminology emerging with our changing health care system? To illustrate this point, consider your familiarity with the following economic concepts and their associated implications for providers: accountable care organizations, Readmissions Reduction Program, HCAHPS scores, HAC Reduction Program, never events, value based purchasing, open payments public data, cost shifting, risk sharing, and medical capital equipment (lease versus purchase). These are just a few examples of facets that involve financial, and thus economic, decision making.
It is important to maintain the environmental, larger perspective and to understand what resources are available from the government for economic problem solving and decision making. It is also important to maintain "bifocal vision" as ...
The document discusses business logistics and supply chain management. It defines logistics, supply chain, and key differences between the two. It outlines important drivers of supply chains like facilities, inventory, transportation, information, sourcing, pricing, and strategy/design. Selecting the proper distribution channel involves factors like the nature of the product, market, middlemen, manufacturer, government regulations, and competition. Outsourcing objectives include focusing on core activities, reducing costs, improving quality, increasing productivity, and de-risking the business. Reasons for outsourcing include cost savings, cost restructuring, improving quality, accessing knowledge and expertise, operational issues, and enabling change.

Here are the key points about risk and uncertainty in cost estimating:
- Risk management is important to identify potential issues that could impact cost and schedule. This includes conducting a risk assessment.
- Cost estimates should account for uncertainty since the future is unknown. This means providing a cost estimate as a probability distribution rather than a single point value.
- Probability distributions, like Monte Carlo simulation, allow the cost estimator to provide information on cost uncertainty. For example, they can say there is an 80% probability the program will cost less than a certain amount.
- Decision makers need this uncertainty information to determine contingency budgets. For example, a comptroller may want to know how much to budget to have an 80% confidence of

The document discusses the need for healthcare project management training and the benefits it provides. It notes that recent US legislation and industry trends have led to an increased number of healthcare projects. Good project management is required to implement projects successfully and achieve goals like improved quality and reduced costs. However, healthcare workers often lack project management skills since they are more familiar with operational versus project work. The document advocates for training clinical leaders in project management principles and provides suggestions for developing effective training programs.

Compare and contrast the comments of Professor Kuhlman and Professor.docxjanthony65
The professors see both similarities and differences in their analyses of women's suffrage movements. While they both identify factors that led to the enactment of voting rights, they provide different specific examples. Additionally, they raise concerns beyond just the right to vote, such as economic opportunities and protections, that suffrage alone did not fully address. There are arguments that women's suffrage in the U.S. was either an evolutionary, natural progression or a revolutionary, radical change, depending on how you view the social and political context at the time.
Compare and contrast the comments of Professor Kuhlman and Profess.docxjanthony65
Compare and contrast the comments of Professor Kuhlman and Professor Woodworth-Ney. Do you find any similarities and/or any differences? Do the professors see any patterns or trends in the suffrage movements? What specific examples do they provide as factors in the enactment of women’s voting rights?
Besides the right to vote, what other concerns are presented by Professors Kuhlman, Woodworth-Ney and Foner? Were these concerns answered with suffrage? Why, or why not?
Given the professors' comments and Foner's text, do you think granting women the right to vote was evolutionary (a natural progression) or revolutionary (a radical change)? Why?

CASE STUDY 1
At approximately 15:45 PM, Strike Team 2642 carefully navigated the one-lane gravel road that led to Rodgers Ridge, where they had been ordered to engage in some brush clearing and structural defense operations around three large vacation homes that were distributed across the ridge top. Captain Doug Chandler was leading a strike team for the first time, and he cautiously watched the two separate smoke columns that spouted from the 1600-acre Camp Creek Fire and the 2300-acre Jones Ranch Fire in the valley just beyond the ridge. For the moment, the wind was at their backs and would be pushing the fire away from the ridge.
The five units that made up Captain Chandler’s strike team were all heavy brush (HB) units, each staffed with one officer and three fire fighters and carrying 500 gallons (1892.5 liters) of water, foam, and the normal complement of tools. As they reached the large turnaround near the ridge top, the captain noted that all three homes were built within 50 ft (15.2 m) of each other, with one being the closest to the lip of the canyon, and the other two set back along a single driveway that led off the main road. At 4:20 PM, Captain Chandler ordered two of his brush units, HB26 and HB27, to proceed all the way down the driveway to the house at the end and to “prepare the residence house for defensive operations.” He sent brush units HB28 and HB29 to the two remaining houses and ordered them to prep those structures, while he stayed in a “lookout” position in HB25 near the driveway entrance.
At 4:27 PM, Captain Chandler received a call on his cell phone from the Operations Division. They informed him that the weather was due to change, and that he could expect temperatures to increase for another 30 minutes to a high of 94°F. Humidity was expected to stay extremely low, and the winds were to turn 180° by 7:00 PM. Captain Chandler in turn contacted his strike team by radio, telling them, “Strike Team 2642, all units, just be advised we’re due for a wind change.” He issued no further orders, and radio records showed that only HB26 acknowledged the message. Eighteen minutes later, at 4:45 PM, Captain Chandler in HB25 again communicated a message to his strike team: “ST 2642, all units, from my position it appears the wind has changed and may be pushing the fire toward the ridge.” This time, both HB26 and HB27 acknowledged, both with the single word “Copy.”
Just 12 minutes later, at 4:57 PM, HB26 frantically radioed that they were in danger. “HB26 and 27 here, we’ve … we’ve got lots of fire rolling toward us and it appears it’ll cut be.

Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of quantitativ.docxjanthony65
Compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of quantitative and qualitative research. Discuss areas of disagreement.
REPLY TO MY CLASSMATE’S RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE QUESTION AND EXPLAIN WHY YOU AGREE? (A MINIMUM OF 150 WORDS)
Quantitative research is more scientifically done, and it is more of a controlled process. This form has been around for a long time and is typically the more trusted form of research. These are specific and standardized ways to perform survey’s, data collection, tests, interviews. This form of research involves usually only two variables. The researcher does their best to not influence the process as this will contaminate the findings. This form is used to find a relationship or correlation between 2 variables meaning, “how does more variable cause another to change.” When interviewing, surveying, or having participants take tests this process involves using closed ended questions, multiple choice and using the Likert way setting up these inquiries. The researcher in quantitative research must find many previous studies related to the subject and uses sources professional peer reviewed articles and journals. This form uses scientific method and formulas to find correlation.
Qualitative: In general, I feel that this form of research is (for myself) easier to understand. Meaning that this form uses a “real life” approach to it. It is typically in the past not known for its validity. Researchers in qualitative are very much a part of the whole process. They use self-reflection, personal experiences, and in general the role the researcher affects a large part of the design, participants, and the outcomes. Using a deductive method for understanding data, they go back and forth between findings to try and put together correlations. Researchers often in qualitative method study their own places of work or social environment by sitting and observing while taking notes. Collecting data for this type of research can involve sources like newspaper, diaries, social media, emails, and other subjective references. Participants in qualitative research are interactive with the researcher by interviewing participants with open questions to find opinions. This form of research has recently emerged in last decades. The researcher may need to have more understanding of study variables because there are not many sources of previous studies.
I think these following paragraphs from the article in the study guide help make it clearer the differences between quantitative and qualitative.
“The quantitative research methods derived from the natural sciences that emphasize objectivity, measurement, reliability and validity, have come to be increasingly inadequate especially in cross-cultural research. Attention has been devoted to a search for effective alternatives, and this leads to the revitalization of the qualitative approach which emphasizes the description of culture and meaning.”

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can

New Approaches to Supply Chain Management Concept.
Logistics Integration of "Hub and Spoke" Model

Abstract
In the current modern trade, the integration of economic affairs
from design to
completion is an important priority, which determines all
economic options of companies
to focus on satisfying the needs of consumers and users to their
loyalty.
A supply chain consists of all parties involved, directly or
indirectly, in fulfilling a
customer’s request. The supply chain not only includes the
manufacturer and suppliers,
but also transporters, warehouses, retailers, and customers
themselves.
7. Within each organization, such as a manufacturer, the supply
chain includes all
functions involved in receiving and filling a customer’s request.
These functions include,
but are not limited to, new product development, marketing,
operations, distribution,
finance, and customer service.
This article stresses the essential aspects of supply chain
management in modern
economics affairs, which are integrating under the functional
aspect of the "hub and
spoke" model.

1. Introduction
The management of the supply-delivery chain aims to intensify
the processes that
take place from the level of the suppliers of raw materials to
that of the end customers. The
aim is to increase the added value and to improve the use of
resources and the efficiency of
costs by bringing the required product at the indicated time and
place with minimum
manipulations and without delays.
8. A supply chain means a flow of goods, services, money and
information through
different situations (Tan, 2001). These units are legally
independent companies, factories
or offices far from each other, geographically speaking, or
organizational entities that have
the autonomy to take decisions regarding the information
systems.
The concept of management of the supply-delivery chain is
closely connected to
Michael Porter's idea (1985), which expresses it as a chain of
values based on the
processual vision on organizations. According to this idea, an
organization can be seen as a
Valahian Journal of Economic Studies
22
subsystem composed of sub-systems, each of them with inputs,
transformation
(conversion) processes and outputs.
Having in mind the logistic field, the management of the
supply-delivery chain is
very important, because it covers the aspects that study the
flows of materials and
information, the acquisitions and sales from an operative point
of view, such as the
transports, orders and packing, but also aspects of a strategic
nature, such as the
competition. Although there is a large number of definitions on
9. the management of the
supply chain, this concept is more comprehensive than the
concept of logistics. Thus, the
management of the supply-delivery chain emphasizes in essence
the mechanism of
planning and control of the various economic flows from the
suppliers of raw materials to
the end customers (Nurmilaakso, 2003).
More concretely, the concept of management of the supply-
delivery chain is
problematic because the supply corresponding to the demand
implies specific managerial
operations such as inventories or checks of the supply and
delivery of goods and services.
Comparatively speaking, the management of the demand chain
reflects operations like
orders or customer care. Thus, in these circumstances the
management of operations is not
independent of the general economic situation. During times of
recession, the management
of the demand is often used due to more intense competition.
From another view point, low
competition leads in times of economic boom to a management
specific to the demand. It
results that the management of the supply-delivery chain can be
associated both to the
concept of management adequate to the supply and also to the
one specific to the demand.
Experts think that the especially important role of the
management of the supply-
demand chain is emphasized by the arguments presented below.
Internationalization of companies: globalization brought us to
the situation where
10. the companies, even the medium sized ones, have branches in
many countries. Because
operations are carried out over an extended geographical area,
emerging needs require for
the rationalization of storage spaces and transports.
Complex products: products have become complex and a single
company does not
own the necessary resources to achieve them. Because the
development of resources from
zero requires time and efforts, it could be an option to use the
existing resources of other
companies. Although a product is not complex, it often needs
adjustment.
Changes in the conditions of the market: the rapid technological
development had
as a result the shortening of production cycles. Because
opportunities to make profit come
and go very quickly, the market is rapidly flooded and new
products have to be brought on
the market frequently. For this reason, the needs and abilities of
various commercial
partners must be rapidly identified. In these circumstances, the
management of the supply-
delivery chain has an impact at least on the following essential
objectives:
• the response time is the time lapsed from the moment when
the customer places
the order until the moment when he receives it. Because a short
response time increases the
degree of satisfaction of the customer, this objective increases
competitiveness;
• the level of stockpiles has an important effect on profitability
11. because a small
stockpile reduces costs. It also reduces the risk of products
ending their shelf time.
• the total time is the sum between the time of conversion of
raw materials into
end products and the waiting time. In principle, competitiveness
and profitability should
not exclude one another. In practice, the growths of safety
stockpiles may reduce the
response time. Similarly, a longer response time leads to
reduced stockpiles. Because a
shorter total time produces more rapid reactions, this opens the
way toward the
improvement both of competitiveness and profitability.
Volume 5 (19) Issue 2 2014
23
The capacity to capitalize on / use the own production potential
plays an important
role. On the one hand, under usage erodes both competitiveness
and also profitability
because slow employees and obsolete equipment generate costs
and not income. It is
possible that these costs be balanced with the income, but the
adjustment of capacities /
potential may be costly in its turn. On the other hand, over
usage rapidly erodes capacities.
Although profitable on a short term, the deterioration of
capacities can be very costly on a
long term. In order to improve the use of capacities, the
12. company must be capable of
selling its own capacity when this thing is possible and of
buying capacity when it is
necessary (Nurmilaakso, 2003).
Specialty studies revealed the level of logistical costs between
10 and 35% of the
gross income of companies. Out of these logistic costs, 60% are
destined to the
transportation of goods. A study conducted by the consultancy
form PRTM considers the
companies with the best practices in moving products within the
market as the
organizations that enjoy an advantage of 45% from the point of
view of the costs of the
supply-delivery chain in comparison with the average of the
competition (Abdinnour,
1999).
2. Functional aspects specific to the management of the supply-
delivery chain
In the conditions of a complex and ever more dynamic modern
market, the
necessity arises to immediately identify and satisfy the
requirements of current and
potential consumers by using simple commercial systems (the
"point to point" model) or
within a network (the model of the supply-delivery chain),
which will allow efficiency and
profitability on a medium and long term.
If a solution of the point to point type is specific to a certain
commercial partner,
13. the implementation costs can be very high. In this case, a
profitable solution requires a
long term relationship and a high volume of transactions. Figure
1 presents the commercial
relationship between supplier and customers, which later
requires the integration in the
supply-delivery chain, according to the domain of reference and
specificity of the business.
Figure 1.
The “point to point” commercial model (supplier-consumers)
(Source:
http://www.ipsera.com/assets/documents/ancarani_cp.pdf)
Because the commercial model previously presented is limited
from the point of
view of the engaged resources (human, material, informational)
for the capitalization of the
business potential of a company, the economic practice
recommends as being extremely
Valahian Journal of Economic Studies

efficient to integrate the producing, supplying and service
providing companies in supply-
14. delivery chains that are adequate to their field of activity.
In order to produce / provide the goods / services required by
the market,
companies need to integrate themselves in supply-delivery
chains. Thus, they
economically relate with "upriver" partners that is with
suppliers of raw materials and
providers of specialized services, as well as with "downriver"
partners, meaning firms
specialized in transport and distribution to customers
(consumers and end users)(Kotler &
Keller, 2008).
According to the economic theory and practice, for an adequate
functioning of a
supply-delivery chain, it must have, within its structure, the
following types of firms and
beneficiaries: suppliers; producers; storehouses/silos;
transporters; distributors
(wholesalers and retailers);* consumers/end users. At the same
time, within any supply-
delivery chain a number of complex managerial processes take
place, such as: the
management of materials, the management of acquisitions; the
management of demands;
the management of storehouses, the management of transport,
the management of
distribution of materials etc. Figure 2 emphasizes the structures
and relationships within a
full supply-delivery chain.
Figure 2.
The Model of a full supply-delivery chain
15. (Source: www.contabilizat.ro)
Within a supply-delivery chain specific processes of integration
of the structures
composing it take place. Thus, the integration can be internal or
external and it requires a
lot of communication.
The internal integration occurs within an organizational
component. It refers to
the integration of the applications from the various sales
software and the systems of the
individual users. Experts suggest five approaches internal
integration. These are oriented
toward data, toward the interface of the application, toward the
method, toward the portal
and solutions oriented toward the process of integration
(Goldfarb & Prescod, 2002).
Volume 5 (19) Issue 2 2014
25
The external integration occurs between organizational
components. These are
components within the same company or they belong to
different companies. The external
integration includes the exchange of information with customers
and suppliers at the same
time, as well as activities carried out through intermediaries. In
16. the traditional trade, each
customer and each supplier can be automatized at an internal
level, by connecting the
systems using manual processes such as the mail, fax or
telephone. Through the web page
of the shop, the customer can see the supplier's catalogue of
goods and services and can
place orders directly in the system. Nothing is necessarily
automatized in what the
customer is concerned. In the case of an electronic commerce
portal, the customers enter
the portal in order to see the supplier's catalogue and to place
orders. The suppliers enter
the same website in order to see the orders and to honour them.
Within the electronic
integrated commerce, the systems of the various companies
exchange information directly,
which eliminates the manual processes (Goldfarb & Prescod,
2002).
In order to adequately correlate, relate and coordinate the firms
integrated in a
supply-delivery chain, an adequate management is applied,
which ensures a precise
distribution of resources and an exact synchronization of
activities within a specific
mechanism of functioning. In the best-case scenario, the
management of the supply-
delivery chain ensures a smooth specific functioning which
reduces the response time, the
total time, the level of the stockpiles and it improves the
capacity of usage. In the worst
case scenario, its failure leads to the redistribution of rewards
and risks, which is costly and
does not create added value.
17. The model of reference of the specific operations within the
supply-delivery chain
(according to the requirements of the Council of the Supply-
Delivery Chain) emphasizes a
description of the specific processes, which are the planning of
business, supply,
production, delivery, as follows:
• The plan: the planning of the demand/supply;
• The source: supply/acquisition of materials, the management
of the supply
infrastructure;
• The production: achievement/execution of the production, the
management of
the production infrastructure;
• The delivery: the management of orders, the management of
stockpiles, the
management of transports and installations, the management of
delivery infrastructure
(Nurmilaakso, 2003).
This model requires that participants in the creation and
functioning of the supply-
delivery chain achieve a continuous exchange of information.
If we have in mind the supply sources (suppliers) necessary to a
company that
produces the products required by the various markets, we must
have in mind the specific
relationships within the supply-delivery chain related to the
procurement of raw materials
required by the production process of that company. Thus,
within this functional
18. mechanism, the suppliers within the supply-delivery chain get
involved in the management
of the stockpiles of the producing company, with which they
have normal and legal
business relations, by using the stockpile managed by the
supplier system (Kotler & Jain &
Maesincee, 2009). To this end, the producing company
transmits to the mentioned
suppliers information with regard to the planned demand, the
current situation of its
stockpiles, other logistical elements etc. The information
obtained allows suppliers to
intervene at the right moment to complete the stockpiles. Acting
in this manner brings
about the positive economic effects expected within the
producing company, which make
reference to the reduction of the length of the projected
production cycle, of the number of

personnel employed, as well as the level of the total costs. At
the same time, it increases
the precision within the supply-delivery chain regarding the
materialization of the
economic flows: inputs - conversion - outputs - distribution -
full satisfaction of the
requirements of the consumers / users (Kotler & Jain &
Maesincee, 2009).
According to the statements of the experts, there are four major
19. decisions that need
to be taken by the managers involved in the functioning of a
supply-delivery chain: the
way in which orders are processed (managed); the positioning
and management of
stockpiles; the delivery (transport) of the goods to customers
(Kotler & Jain & Maesincee,
2009).
The company cooperates with its customers and suppliers, who
in their turn are in
competition with each other. Figure 3 illustrates the fact that a
company can have several
branches and can be involved in several supply chains at the
same time. Similarly, these
customers and suppliers can cooperate with the competitors of
the company. There is an
equilibrium between competition and cooperation. Because
management refers to decision
making, which requires information, the management of the
supply chain requires
integration, which requires an exchange of information between
participants. For this
reason, the basic challenges have their origins in the difficulties
to achieve an equilibrium
between competition and cooperation between the participants
in the supply-delivery
chains.

delivery chain

Figure 3 emphasizes a functional mechanism in the supply-
delivery chain, which
reveals both its internal and its external side within the
relational mechanism of the
network. The mentioned participants are not only different units
within the same company,
because they often belong to different companies. The first case
is linked to an internal
supply-delivery chain, because a participant has authority over
the others. The second case
is linked to an external supply-delivery chain, because all
participants have autonomy. This
latter case is more difficult than the former from several points
of view. According to
experts, because the functionality of a supply-delivery chain is
based rather on
Volume 5 (19) Issue 2 2014
27
cooperation, competition is not necessary between the
participating companies, but
between supply-delivery chains. However, the supply-delivery
chains are not isolated, but
they often form a supply network.
3. The integration of a "hub and spokes" model in the
21. management
of the supply-delivery chain
Companies that seek to expand their business but to preserve
their advantage in
relation to their competitors must overcome the discrepancies
that might appear between
the various components. In this context, the "hub and spokes"
model facilitates a smooth
integration of the processes, ensures a good hierarchy and
reduces the operational and
maintenance costs.
Within the "hub and spokes" model, all deliveries go through a
central distribution
hub, often strategically located. The resulting map looks like a
bunch of spokes with a hub
in the centre.
The hub is, almost literally, in the centre of attention. If the hub
is too far from the
geographical centre, the time and cost of distribution are
negatively affected. If the hub is
too far from the airport, port or railway station, this will lead to
an increase of the
operational costs. Figure 4 presents a "hub and spokes" logistic
model that includes
producers (spokes), intermediaries (wholesalers) and customers
(spokes) (Lin & Lin & Lin
&, 2003).

MFA - Supply Chain Integration.pdf)
The location of the hub is essential and the entrance and exit of
goods must be
done without blockages. Other factors are the storage costs,
taxes, availability of
alternative routes and so on. It could be recommendable for
several hubs to exist, but this
will lead to a more complicated functionality.
Valahian Journal of Economic Studies
28
If deliveries are constantly late or lost in transit and the
distribution logistics go out
of control, it means that the time has come to take into
consideration the hub and spokes
model.
In the field of transports, a distinction is often made between
the direct transport
and the one conducted according to the "hub and spokes" model.
The direct transport is a
connection between two points, which means transports that go
in a single direction. The
23. characteristics of the "hub and spokes" systems refer to their
organization under the shape
of a star. The hub is the nodal centre from where transports are
done toward all the spokes
(Figure 5).
Figure 5
A "hub and spokes" logistic network
(Source: http://sinaslogisticsblog.blogspot.ro/2010/04/hub-and-
spoke-system.html)
The "hub and spokes" model is applicable to the following
forms of transport
(http://en.org/Spoke-hub_distribution_paradigm):
• The road transports imply heavy transport vehicles which
require standardized
loading equipment (freight cars, pallets, boxes, caterpillars etc).
The routes of these
transport means can be from "spoke" firms (suppliers, producers
etc) to "hub" firms
(wholesalers, retailers etc), which manage specialized
commercial storehouses, and from
here to consumers/users (companies or individuals);
• The transport of goods on railway, in which the loads are
transported to a central
terminal. At that terminal the containers are moved on other
cars, and the railway yards are
used to select the cars and compose the trains according to their
24. destination;
• The air transport implies smaller airports as "spokes" from
where the flows of
transport are directed to airports with large traffic potential of
the "hub" type. If we have in
mind the flows of goods, we can consider (for example) that
most of the flights of
company A go through the International Airport B, and a
significant part of the FedEx
Express packages are processed in the "Super Hub" situated in
the International Airport C.
This already reveals a "hub and spokes" system that is adequate
to this type of transport.
Volume 5 (19) Issue 2 2014

• The maritime transport, where small ships transport containers
from various
ports to a central terminal where the containers are loaded on
larger ships.
• The public transport of people uses various hubs which allow
passengers to make
transfers between transport lines and transport means.
• For the individual transport, the "hub and spokes" model does
not apply because
drivers in general choose the shortest route between two points.
The "hub and spokes" model in the field of logistics (presented
25. in figures 3 and 4)
can be incorporated in the modern commerce. This model is
usually based on a traditional
and electronic market that connects the hub company to the
spokes firms. In this way the
commercial models are applied to businesses of the types B2B
(Business-to-Business) and
B2C (Business-to-Consumer). And here, through the "hub and
spokes" model, the
commercial partners are integrated through a hub. Thus, most
electronic logistic networks
of the "hub and spokes" have a single form of allocation, a
single option, as well as a
complex system of transport routes from the demand points
toward the hubs.
The transactions within the supply chains which require
businesses specific to the
electronic commerce include flows of information, products and
funds. For example, the
following transactions can be carried out in the virtual space:
providing information about
the products to participants in the supply-delivery chain;
placing orders with suppliers;
permission given to customers to place orders; permission given
to customers to monitor
the progress of the order; filling out and transmission of orders
to customers; reception of
payments from customers (Chopra & Meindl, 2004).
Thus, in the field of electronic commerce the network is not just
a broker, but also
an intermediary that creates demand for the suppliers and
supply for the customers. The
commercial accord is prepared manually between the
intermediary and the commercial
26. partner. The "hub and spokes" model is limited to interactions
such as the search for
products, the updating of catalogues, orders and auctions in the
virtual space and
operations of reading and writing within the portals. In order to
reach a critical mass of
commercial partners, specific standards with maximum
applicability are necessary.
The initial growth in the electronic commerce was recorded in
the B2C supply
chains. The best known example is Amazon.com, which started
to sell books on the
internet and extended to music, toys, electronic products,
software and others. However,
most businesses in the virtual space are conducted between
companies. At General
Electric, the employees order office supplies on the internet
from already selected retailers.
Ford Motor uses the internet to facilitate the cooperation
between the engineers in the
entire world in order to collaborate on various projects with the
aim to create basic
components that can be used (Chopra & Meindl, 2004).
The "hub and spokes" system is the best known network system.
The spokes in
the network constitute transport services between regional
terminals and hubs. The hubs
are terminals or, in the case of railway systems, they can be
railway nodes. Within the hub,
the transports are conducted from one line to another that
connects the hub with the
terminals of destination. Ideally, the hubs are located as close
as possible to the gravity
centre of the transport demand. This way the distances to be
27. covered and the duration of
the transports between the terminal of origin and those of
destination are minimized. The
total time of transport from terminal to terminal grows due to
the supplementary distance
necessary for the transport to the hub and to the time spent in
the hub. A "hub and spokes"
system is created in order to combine the small flows that come
and depart for different
directions (Chopra & Meindl, 2004).
Valahian Journal of Economic Studies
30
Within the "hub and spokes" system there are pre-established
transfer/re-loading
points that are usually situated near important transport routes
and that are used for the
transfer of goods to regional distributors (Figure 6). The hubs
describe the re-loading
points, while the spokes mark the flow of goods from and to the
hubs.
Figure 6.
The "hub and spokes" system”
(Source: http://sinaslogisticsblog.blogspot.ro/2010/04/hub-and-
spoke-system.html)
A hub and spokes network is a centralized and integrated
28. logistic system created in
order to keep the costs at a low level. The hub and spokes
distribution centres receive
products from many different directions, they consolidate them
and send them directly to
their destination.
A "hub and spokes" logistic network is composed of hubs that
have the role to
carry out transfer operations (like, for example, to re-assemble
and re-direct loads
composed of smaller units) and of spokes or storehouses that
have the role to connect the
end customers with the hubs (Zapfel & Wasner, 2002).
The mother companies and their subsidiaries or divisions have
different needs and
that is why they need different business systems. The data
within these different business
systems must, however, be integrated so that the organization
functions as a whole. A
system that is suited to this end makes possible for the
organization to develop effectively
as a business unit, within which the mother company acts like
the hub of a wheel, and the
subsidiaries like its spokes.
While the "hub and spokes" model is currently predominant in
organizations, it is
followed by the centralized model within which a single
company maintains a constant in
the field of social and media efforts. We can observe this in
fields like medical assistance,
finances, pharmaceuticals and in the case of a number of car
manufacturers in order to
29. preserve a sensation of control in a coordinated manner.
Most often, companies launch a centralized multifunctional
group (often known as
Centre of Excellence) in order to serve the various components
through a common set of
services, models, software and knowledge. Within the "hub and
spokes" model the
strategic decisions are mostly taken inside the hub, the results
being later directed to the
components that form the spokes.

4. Conclusions
A successful management of the supply-delivery chain requires
many decisions
regarding the flow of information, products and funds. The
conception, planning and
operation of a supply chain have a strong impact on the
profitability and overall success of
the company. The planning of the supply-delivery chain
establishes parameters within
which a supply chain can function for a certain period of time.
During planning, companies
must include in their decisions a certain degree of uncertainty
with regard to the demand,
30. exchange rates and competition for that period of time. Due to
shorter periods of time and
better prognoses than the ones during the conception phase,
they try to incorporate any
flexibility included in the supply chain during the conception
phase and to exploit it in
order to improve the outcomes. As a result of the planning
phase, companies define a set of
operational policies that govern their short term operations.
Within the operations of the supply-delivery chain, the time
frame is weeks or
days, and during this phase companies take decisions regarding
the individual orders
placed by customers. At operational level, the configuration of
the supply-delivery chain is
considered to be a fix one and the planning policies are already
defined. The aim of the
operations of the supply chain is to manage the orders placed by
customers in the best way
possible. During this phase, firms allocate stockpiles and
production to individual orders,
establish a deadline until which the order has …
