Book Logistics and Marketing Integration

Download or read book Logistics and Marketing Integration written by Pankaj Madhani and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Logistics and marketing are usually concerned with satisfying the customers' needs and wants, respectively through their supply and demand functions in a marketing channel. The interface between logistics and marketing is critical to the delivery of customer service. The major cause of conflict for logistics and marketing interface is related to 5Ps (product, price, place, promotion and packaging) of marketing. Without the successful link of logistics and marketing, the firm may be unable to provide good customer service, resulting in dissatisfied customer or a lost sale. For organizations to be successful in delivering higher customer value, logistics and marketing functions must be integrated because the right product must be at the right price, advertised through proper promotions, provided in right packaging and must be available at the right place. This research works in this direction and develops various frameworks and models such as interactive model of logistics and marketing integration and business value add framework for better integration of logistics and marketing.

Book Distribution Planning and Control

Download or read book Distribution Planning and Control written by David F. Ross and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-06-27 with total page 834 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When work began on the first volume ofthis text in 1992, the science of dis tribution management was still very much a backwater of general manage ment and academic thought. While most of the body of knowledge associated with calculating EOQs, fair-shares inventory deployment, productivity curves, and other operations management techniques had long been solidly established, new thinking about distribution management had taken a definite back-seat to the then dominant interest in Lean thinking, quality management, and business process reengineering and their impact on manufacturing and service organizations. For the most part, discussion relating to the distri bution function centered on a fairly recent concept called Logistics Manage ment. But, despite talk of how logistics could be used to integrate internal and external business functions and even be considered a source of com petitive advantage on its own, most of the focus remained on how companies could utilize operations management techniques to optimize the traditional day-to-day shipping and receiving functions in order to achieve cost contain ment and customer fulfillment objectives. In the end, distribution manage ment was, for the most part, still considered a dreary science, concerned with oftransportation rates and cost trade-offs. expediting and the tedious calculus Today, the science of distribution has become perhaps one of the most im portant and exciting disciplines in the management of business.

Book Four Essays on the Interface Between Marketing and Operations in Supply Chain Management

Download or read book Four Essays on the Interface Between Marketing and Operations in Supply Chain Management written by Pietro De Giovanni and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation consists of four essays that contribute in the investigation of the interface between marketing and operations in supply chain management (SCM). The main motivation behind this work relate to the evolution of SCM, which goes from a mere logistics function expanded across inter-organizational boudaries to a systematic coordination and integration of traditional business functions. This evolution pushes researchers and practitioners to think about SCM as a sophisticated and complex phenomenon that needs to be further explored. This dissertation provides four essays and each of them carries out specific motivations and addresses price issues. The first essay empirically investigates which business function, between marketing and operations, contributes the most to firm's corporate performance in SCM. On the other hand, the research provides prescriptive insights to managers on how to boost the effectiveness of SCM on corporate performance when focusing either on operations or on marketing activities while adopting specific managerial levers. The second essay draws a detailed map identifying the current research gaps to be eventually filled. It elaborates information from 108 papers published over the last thirty years and provides the ongoing research directions to be undertaken by future studies investigating the interface between marketing and operations in SCM. The third essay introduces a differential game of marketing and operations modeling both vertical coordination and horizontal SC competition. It highlights the interfaces between marketing and operational strategies in a context of symmetric competition. The main result concerns the effect of coordination on competition. When the SCs are not coordinated, competition is played only by price. Conversely, When the SCs are coordinated, competition is played on both pricing and advertising. Coordination intensifies SC competition and turns out to be economically ineffective. The last essay shows the advantages of integrating marketing and operational strategies in an atypical supply chain(e.g., closed-loop supplay chain) where economic, environmental and social issues occur simultaneously. The main result concerns the effectiveness of coordination and the additional knowledge supplied when having dynamic returns to better understand the interfaces between marketing and operations. Summarizing, this dissertation shows the evaluable research findings obtainable when a complex phenomenon like SCM is analyzed from different persepctives, such as marketing and operations. Future research in the domain of SCM should pay more attention to the interfaces and the integration between business function's strategies to provide realible, complete and prescriptive managerial insights and research findings.

This book was released on 2006-01-16 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For reseach in all subjects and among different philisopical paradigms, research methodologies form one of the key issues to rely on. This volume brings a series of papers together, which present different research methodologies as applied in supply chain management. This comprises review oriented papers that look at what kind of methodologies have been applied, as well as methodological papers discussing new developments needed to successfully conduct research in supply chain management. The third group is made up of applications of the respective methodologies, which serve as examples on how the different methodological approaches can be applied. All papers have undergone a review process to ensure their quality. Therefore, we hope that this book will serve as a valid source for current and future researchers in the field. While the workshop on “Research Methodologies in Supply Chain Management” took place at the Supply Chain Management Center, Carl von Ossietzky Univ- sity in Oldenburg, Germany, it is based on a collaboration with the Supply Chain Management Group of the Department of Operations Management at the Cop- hagen Business School and the Department of Production Management at the Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration. We would like to thank all those who contributed to the workshop and this book.
