Enterprise logistics integration includes: the goal, function, framework and resistance of enterprise logistics integration.
Practice shows that only enterprises with clear goals can develop rapidly. Similarly, only the enterprise logistics operation with clear goals can operate efficiently. The objectives of enterprise logistics operation include the following aspects: rapid response, minimum inventory, centralized transportation, minimum change, quality and life cycle support.
The first is quick response. This is the most basic requirement of enterprise logistics operation objectives. Rapid response is related to whether the enterprise can meet the customer's service demand in time. For example, a customer in Kunming, whose company's server has a problem, is located in Beijing and is a supplier of server spare parts. If the customer needs to restore the normal operation of the server within 6 hours, quick response is very important.
The ability of quick response enables enterprises to change the emphasis of traditional logistics operation on planning based on forecast and inventory, and respond to customers' needs in the form of small batch transportation. Rapid response requires enterprises to have smooth information communication channels and extensive partner support. In the above example, if the server spare parts support manufacturers have partners in Chengdu or Kunming, it will be easier to solve customers' problems and meet customers' needs in 6 hours or less.
