Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "The Art of Transportation and Documentation," readers embark on an enlightening journey through the intricate world of logistics management. This comprehensive guide delves into the core principles, strategies, and technologies driving the seamless movement of goods across the global marketplace. From the outset, the book elucidates the diverse modes of transportation that form the backbone of modern logistics. Each mode, be it road, rail, air, or sea, is meticulously examined, highlighting its unique benefits and limitations in the context of supply chain operations. Readers gain invaluable insights into the decision-making process involved in selecting the most suitable transportation mode, considering factors such as cost, speed, reliability, and geographical constraints. A special focus is placed on multimodal transportation, where goods traverse multiple modes of transport seamlessly. Through detailed explanations and illustrative examples, readers discover how multimodal solutions offer enhanced flexibility, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness in today's dynamic logistics landscape. Containerization emerges as a key concept, revolutionizing the way goods are transported and stored. The book elucidates the principles and benefits of containerization, from standardized packaging to improved security and reduced handling costs. Moreover, readers learn about the intricacies of managing transportation costs and networks, leveraging tools such as ICEGATE for efficient customs clearance and optimizing GST return filing processes. But logistics management extends beyond transportation alone; it encompasses the efficient flow of information. The book explores the concept of information logistics, emphasizing the importance of robust information systems in driving informed decision-making and optimizing supply chain performance. From sales and purchasing information systems to inventory control and quality management, readers gain a comprehensive understanding of how information flows seamlessly through the logistics ecosystem, enabling timely and accurate decision-making. Furthermore, the book delves into emerging technologies such as vehicular communication systems and Gross Register Tonnage (GRT) and Net Register Tonnage (NRT) calculations, offering insights into their applications and benefits in modern logistics operations. With practical insights, expert guidance, and real-world examples, "The Art of Transportation and Documentation" equips readers with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the complexities of logistics management successfully. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a novice in the field, this book is your indispensable companion on the journey to mastering the art of logistics in the global marketplace.

Download or read book Handbook of Global Logistics written by James H. Bookbinder and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-06 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global logistics entails tradeoffs in facility location, distribution networks, the routing and scheduling of deliveries by different modes of travel (e.g., air, water, truck, rail), procurement, and the overall management of international supply chains. In an increasingly global economy, then, logistics has become a very important matter in the success or failure of an organization. It is an integral part of supply chain management that involves not just operations management considerations, but production engineering and regional science issues as well. As Director of the prestigious Waterloo Management of Integrated Manufacturing Systems Research Group (WATMIMS), which specializes in logistics and manufacturing, Jim Bookbinder is uniquely qualified to edit a handbook on global logistics. He has aligned a set of prominent contributors for this volume. The chapters in the Handbook are organized into discrete sections that examine modes; logistics in particular countries; operations within a free-trade zone; innovative features impacting international logistics; case studies of specific companies; and a look toward the future. Contributors are from the Americas, Europe, and Asia, and they push the state of the art in areas such as trade vs. security; border issues; cabotage within NAFTA; Green logistics corridors within the EU; inland ports; direct-to-store considerations; and all the questions that need to be confronted in any given region. This will certainly appeal to researchers and practitioners alike, and could serve as required or supplementary reading in graduate-level logistics courses as well.

Download or read book The Freight Story written by Harry Caldwell and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although efforts to improve freight transportation efficiency and reliability have been successful, the U.S. transportation system is now facing challenges that, unless addressed, may jeopardize its reliability. Allowing transportation system reliability to erode would add additional pressure to U.S. companies operating in an increasingly competitive international market and place more burdens on communities seeking to sustain their economic base and quality of life. Improved logistics has thus far been able to address the corrosive effects of the loss of system reliability. Unfortunately, the ability of logistics to provide additional offsetting savings appears to be nearing its limit, as are the savings attributable to deregulation. Unless these challenges are addressed, more discretionary income will be devoted to moving materials and products, businesses will be constrained in their adoption of innovative strategies to maintain global competitiveness, quality of life-as measured by congestion-will suffer, and safety and security could be jeopardized.

Book excerpt: Trade between the U.S. and Mexico has more than doubled since NAFTA went into effect. Most of this trade crosses the border by truck. This report addresses congressional concern that the border area was shouldering a disproportionate share of the costs of increased trade activity and that congestion problems related to expanded traffic were not being adequately addressed. It provides information and analysis on (1) the nature of commercial truck traffic congestion at the southwest border; (2) the factors that contribute to congestion; and (3) the actions, including programs and funding, that are being taken to address these problems.

Download or read book Supply Chain Engineering and Logistics Handbook written by Erick C. Jones and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 734 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook begins with the history of Supply Chain (SC) Engineering, it goes on to explain how the SC is connected today, and rounds out with future trends. The overall merit of the book is that it introduces a framework similar to sundial that allows an organization to determine where their company may fall on the SC Technology Scale. The book will describe those who are using more historic technologies, companies that are using current collaboration tools for connecting their SC to other global SCs, and the SCs that are moving more towards cutting edge technologies. This book will be a handbook for practitioners, a teaching resource for academics, and a guide for military contractors. Some figures in the eBook will be in color. Presents a decision model for choosing the best Supply Chain Engineering (SCE) strategies for Service and Manufacturing Operations with respect to Industrial Engineering and Operations Research techniques Offers an economic comparison model for evaluating SCE strategies for manufacturing outsourcing as opposed to keeping operations in-house Demonstrates how to integrate automation techniques such as RFID into planning and distribution operations Provides case studies of SC inventory reductions using automation from AIT and RFID research Covers planning and scheduling, as well as transportation and SC theory and problems
