Description

As manufacturers seek to gain a competitive advantage by improving their logistics and operations, one area they're focusing on is lead time. Lead time refers to how long it takes to create a finished product, from order placement to final delivery. This is because short lead times contribute to: a faster response to customer demand, faster time-to-market, reduce inventory costs, improve cashflow, more accurate forecasting and leaner operations. On the other hand, long lead times can cause: a negative impact on customer satisfaction, higher inventory costs, risk exposure, higher transportation cost, product develpoment challenges and loss of competitive advantage. As a result, reducing lead time and managing your supply chain are key to growth and success. Various procedures go into logistics operations. Coping them all and ensuring that work goes streamlined until the orders are fulfilled is an enormous undertaking. From ordering, stocking, and tracking inventory to processing orders, picking, packing, and delivering them, all are part of the tremendous logistics operations. The most effective logistics operations management strategies will help you achieve greater financial success by maintaining the transportation and inventory of goods. So improving overall supply chain workflows by investing in technology and fleet management systems is the easiest way to maximize benefits.
