TALLER
Talking about Logistics, workshop
Logistics can be defined as the management of the flow of goods, information and
other resources, energy and people between the point of origin and the point of
consumption in order to meet the requirements of consumers. Logistics involves
the integration of information, transportation, inventory, warehousing, material
handling, packaging and security. Logistics may have an internal focus (inbound
logistics), or external focus (outbound logistics). If the company manufactures a
product from parts purchased
from suppliers, and those products are then sold to customers, one can speak
about a supply chain. Supply Chain can be defined as a network of facilities and
distribution options that performs the function of procurement of materials,
transformation of these materials into intermediate and finished products, and the
distribution of these finished products to customers.
The objective of logistics is to place the determined products in the right place, at
the right time and fulfilling the desired conditions to generate maximum profitability
and satisfy demand in the most comfortable way, guaranteeing the highest quality
at the lowest possible cost.
Supply chain: A supply chain is the set of activities, facilities and means of
distribution necessary to carry out the process of selling a product in its entirety.
This is, from the search for raw materials, their subsequent transformation to
manufacturing, transportation and delivery to the final consumer.
In other words, the supply chain is a strategic and logistical function that involves
all the operations that are essential for a merchandise to reach the final customer
in optimal conditions.
They jointly explore the opportunities for increasing efficiency of the supply chain
and improving service levels by using the latest systems and techniques. This
approach is also referred to as logistics re-engineering.
The re-engineering process considers the following factors: the nature of the
product, the optimal or preferred location of source or manufacture, freight and
transport costs and the destination market, seasonal trends, import and export
regulations, customs duties and taxes, etc.

3. Read the next text. Then, prepare a presentation in PowePoint (.ppt)
outlining the main ideas. Check the learning material to develop this
presentation. Finally, record yourself on a video (.mp4) making the
presentation.
To implement a plan that will successfully optimize your logistics operations, consider
strategies that minimize costs, fully utilize production capacity, and improve the
overall quality of customer experience.
2. Proper load and delivery route planning ensures trucks are always carrying full
loads.
3. Finally, identify and utilize the most cost-effective packaging and shipping
methods for products.
Encourage feedback. The success of a company depends on input from all of its
employees or teams, regardless of their role in the logistics process. Carefully
consider feedback and suggestions from staff concerning practices that could further
improve logistics efficiency.
While logistics management is a complex process, utilizing the above strategies can
help you make the most of all warehousing, staffing, transportation, and
communication resources. The improvement of logistics planning will inevitably lead
to higher productivity, happier customers, and a more profitable company. ( Diversified
