Logistic Agility

Far from being limited in action, logistics consequently offers several drivers in the service of sustainable development. In the following sections we shall be attempting to show how logistics can reconcile the expectations of shareholders, customers, the staff, society and the environment by being more reliable, efficient, agile and mindful of the preservation of social and environmental balances. [Pg.42]

Combined with the three leverage drivers of reliability, efficiency and logistic agility - sources of social, economic and environmental benefits - the eco-logistic lever strengthens the contribution of the supply chain to the social and environmental aspects of sustainable development. [Pg.47]

Agile networks are built to align materials suppliers, contract manufacturers, and logistics providers to a demand signal. An agile network starts with the design of the network for pull-based replenishment, and is continually refined through New Product Development and Introduction processes. [Pg.8]

The challenge to logistics management is to create appropriate supply chain solutions to meet the needs of these ditferent value segments. More than likely there will be the need for multiple supply chain solutions since one size will not fit all . This issue will be dealt with in detail in Chapter 5 where the concept of supply chain agility is discussed. [Pg.42]
