Last mile delivery is defined as the movement of goods from a transportation hub to the final delivery destination. The final delivery destination is typically a personal residence. The focus of last mile logistics is to deliver items to the end user as fast as possible. Last mile logistics has become a popular area of interest for retailers due to the growing demand for fully integrated omni-channel retailing. Evolving omni-channel needs have forced retailers to evaluate current transportation network capabilities and make adjustments accordingly.
Focus has been placed on last mile logistics because, in many cases, this is a key differentiator for retailers. Because consumers can easily shop for product alternatives retailers and their supply chain partners must provide exceptional service to gain market share and build brand loyalty.

These expected increases span across a variety of product types including apparel, entertainment, food, health & beauty, electronics and more.

Traditional transportation methods such as UPS, FedEx and USPS are not successful in all regions and retailers are beginning to search for alternatives to satisfy their needs. In order to accommodate faster shipping times, changing regulation and infrastructure limitations retailers and their transportation partners have started to research delivery alternatives including click-to-collect locations, local regional carriers, drones and much more.

(a) Analyze and present what Specifics to Ecommerce Industry makes Logistics as a 'Critical Bottleneck'
(b) Analyze and present the key things that make 'Last Mile Network Planning and Scheduling' a nightmare for the planners.

3. Review the below statements carefully:
