Fundamentals of Logistics

2 Weekly Semester Hour Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Klaus-Michael Fortmann

Aim of unit and content: Logistics is the process of planning, implementing, and controlling the efficient, cost-effective of raw materials, in-process inventory, finished goods, and related information from the point of origin to the point of consumption for the purpose of conforming to customer requirements. The objectives of this course are to provide the student with: the basic-terms, concepts and principles of logistics, the information, how components of logistics interrelate and interface with other functions of the firm, the traditional logistics functions such as customer service, transportation, warehousing, and inventory management, analytical tools for solving logistics problems and the most important key data (key performance indicators KPI) which are used to ensure the efficiency and effectiveness of logistics processes. Method: A combination of lecture, class discussions, logistics-videos and excursions to firms.

Definition of Logistics: Explanations A system contains subsystems. An integrated system is characterized by the fact, that the subsystems are connected by adapted interfaces (physically, by information technology or both). With reference to logistics this means: Entire system = company logistics Subsystems: procurement logistics, in-house logistics resp. production logistics, distribution logistics, reverse logistics Integrated planning: Logistics must be planned in context to all subsystems, i.e. all interfaces shall work well together. Realisation: building of logistic facilities (warehouses, materials flow systems), organisation of logistic processes, design and programming of logistic ITSystems (PPC production planning and control system, MPC merchandise...); Materials flow: In a broader sense all processes of transportation are subject of logistic concepts, i.e. as well the transportation of men (train, ship, plane)

" Fundamentals of Logistics " - Definition of Terms Definition of Logistics: Explanations Relations between flow of information and materials flow: examples Opposite flow of information against the material flow Concurrent flow of information: reference manual, invoice, delivery order, consignment note (way bill), freight list Advance flow of information: lists of announced deliveries (package numbers) (Packstcknummern), order confirmation (or acknowledgement) Onward flow of information: invoice with separate mail

Hints on the german law of closed loop materials economy (Kreislaufwirtschaftsgesetz KrWG)
Priority: Avoiding of waste is better than Recycling of waste is better than Elimination of waste Therefore the law says that in the year 2010 all rests of consumptiom must be returned into a closed loop of materials. The logistics in this context has a lot of tasks.

Important Types of Logistics Costs


Costs of Inventory = Interest rate of the bounded capital, insurance,

depreciation, loss by theft


Costs of Storage = Fix costs of the warehouse equipment, efforts for

transfer to and release from stock


Costs of Handling = Picking, Handling, Packing Costs of Tansport = Costs of internal and external transportation Costs of Control = Planning of production programm, production planning

and control, order processing, shop-floor scheduling ...


Costs of System = Planning, realisation and control of the material flow The costs of logistics can reach between 15 and 20 percent of the total costs, therefore they have considerable influence to the company profit!

" Fundamentals of Logistics " - Process Organisation Explanation


Important are all results of the decision phase: The project team should be involved in the planning: this leads to a better motivation within the project work. A team coworker who planned his own tasks concerning the timeline and the project results will do all to reach his goals. The definition of the aims of project is essential because every decision within the daily routine depends on their contribution to the project success. Without target every way doesnt care. Without target every shot is a hit. The task designation of a project consists in doing all necessary works to reach the defined aims. Generally an aim is a status in the future which must be desirable, reachable and measurable . The project schedule should be differentiated and the phases as well as the activites must be briefly described and planned in the right order. Typically this is done in form of a critical path diagram with the corresponding Gantt-diagram.

" Fundamentals of Logistics " - Process Organisation Explanation


The area of investigation must be limited prototypically for reducing the project effort. The portability of the project results to the not considered areas must be ensured. The budget for the paper-phases must be defined exactly, whereas for the realisation phase it is enough to give a qualified estimation. At the end of the To-Be-concept it is also necessary to develop an exact investment calculation. Each phase will be terminated by a milestone i.e. there must be issued an interim report with interim results, deadline check and, if necessary, a new scheduling for the rest time of the project. One of the concept results consists in developing alternative proposals for solution and in comparing them by means of a value benefit analysis. It must be clear, which solution is preferred by the team. Otherwise it is possible that the project owner (that is the client of the project) opts for another solution because of special information which only he knows: that can be for example a planned corporate merger which leads to other criteria weights within the value benefit analysis.

" Fundamentals of Logistics " - Transport Systems -

The Technical Availability of a System depends on each Component


Given is the following conveyor track for transport of brown coal into a power plant. The availability of each component can be seen in the drawing. V3 = 98 % means, that the belt conveyor 3 is usable in 98 of 100 hours V2=95 % V3=98 %
a) Please calculate the availability of the whole system! b) Calculate the total availability for the following structur:

V1=97 %

V2=93 %
Solution: a) Vtotal = 0,97*0,95*0,98*100 %=90,307 % b) Vtotal= [1-(1-0,94)*(1-0,93)]*100=99,58%

V1=94 %

V1 = 0,97 FM 1

V2 = 0,99 FM 2

Vtotal = 0,9603

Vtotal = V1 x V2, e.g. conveyor FM1 and FM2 must be both in function at the same time (so-called and-relation, mathematically: multiplication) Parallelconnection V1 = 0,97
FM1 for example belt conveyor or fork lift FM2 for example belt conveyor or fork lift

Failure probability A = 1 V A1 = 1 - V1, A2 = 1 V2 Atotal = A1 x A2, e.g. FM1 and FM2 must both be in malfunction at the same time Vtotal = 1 - Atotal = 1 - (A1 x A2) = 1 - (1 - V1) x (1 - V2) Tip: For every parallel way i must be applicated a bracket-expression of the Type (1 Vi)

Vtotal = 0,9997

Optimal Order Quantity Formula, developped by ANDLER :
J: annual requirement of bought-in material F: fixed costs of the purchase process for one orderline E: delivered price per piece TWER: Costs of all storage activities

Optimal Order Quantity = (pieces)

200 x J x F E x TWER [%]

Similarly is valid for in-house-products: Economic Lot Quantity (pieces) 200 x J x SC = MC x TWER [%]

J: annual requirement of in-house material SC: costs of the set-up process at the production machine: once per lot MC: manufacturing costs for the considered in-house part TWER: Costs of all storage activities

All logistical activities corresponding to the distribution process

Distribution Logistics "


Definition:
The distribution logistics represents the connection between the production process (industry) rsp. the merchandise provision (commerce) and the client site. It contains all warehousing- and transport-processes of goods to be delivered to the consumers incl. the corresponding activities of information, directing and controlling.

Aim of the Distribution Logistics:


The main aim is the provision of the right goods to the right date in the right quantity and in the right quality, optimising the ratio between the wished delivery performance and the associated costs. Main Activities of the Distribution Logistics: The main activities of the distribution logistics are directed at: - the choice of the right locations of the distribution warehouses, - the warehousing itself, - the order processing, - the order picking, - the packaging, - the goods issue, - the load securing and - the transport

Alternative Distribution Structures
Factory Warehouses: They are used for storing the finished goods at the producer site, realising the quantity compensation between production and transport. Central Warehouses: They contain the full assortment of a company (evtl. from several factories), realising the time- and quantitycompensation between the production site and the sales site. Regional Warehouse: Realises the regional presence; the location near the clients makes it possible to transport big quantities over long distances (producerregional warehouse) Distribution center: In big distribution regions a division into distribution areas is useful. Activities in distribution centers are order picking and shipping route optimisation.

Points of Influence while defining the Number of Warehouse-Levels within the vertical Distribution-Structure
The decision for an adapted number of warehouses depends on the aims of the company, for example a wishable delivery time. Costs are caused by: Number and size of the warehouses Transhipment and Handling Costs for transport between the warehouses Costs of distribution to the clients Capital lockup (stock) With a low number of clients and/or big delivery quantities a centralisation is possible.

Contract Warehouse and Consignment Warehouse


Contract Warehouse
Idea Third party storage place, near the buyer

Consignment Warehouse
The warehouse areas are provided by the buyer Amount of warehouse costs = controversial article of a contract Planning scope for suppliers, stock transparency for buyers, changing of property as well as invoicing at the point of withdrawal Not suitable for many clients and/or unimportant clients

Main focus of Changing the property of the negotiations products to the buyer Advantages Costs dont lead to negotiation problems because normally rented rooms are used Marginal transparency for the buyer; the supplier is not allowed to deliver bigger quantities whenever he wants

Relevance of the Decision on a Location


Choosing of locations are fundamental decisions , which fix the externals marketing conditions (like structure of the competition, traffic connection at al.) and which also are bounded to long-term fixations of internal prameters like operating facilities, personnel or form of contract Opening new stores is inherently risky. There are significant monetary costs associated with opening a new outlet ( GHOSH & Mc LAFFERTY 1987, S.1 ). Large new stores can now cost many millions of pounds to develop, so the consequences of poor location decisions are extremely serious ( Mc GOLDRICK 1990 , S.183 ). Decisions on locations are not rapidly or only with extreme costs revisable; the rent-risk with supermarkets for example amounts from 1 to 15 Mio (depending on the size of the rental object) with a usual duration of the rent contract of 15 years (HEEGER 1991 , p.92 ).

Relevance of the Decision on a Location
The achievable sales, made by commercial enterprises, are determined by location conditions. Disadvantages of the location of an outlet lead quickly and directly to continuous economic consequences. Good locations are a bottle-neck ( MHLENBRUCH & NICKEL 1994, p.4, talk about entry barriers in form of slender locations) : The decreasing number of lucrative location-alternatives and therewith the increasing risc of poor location decisions point the value of careful location analyses out. Experience becomes a less reliable guide ( BREHENY 1988, p.41 ). In contrast to the other marketing parameters the location decision is barely imitable by other commercial enterprises. Location is the only marketing mix variable, that cannot be duplicated (GOLDEN & ZIMMERMANN 1980, p.119). Opening of new outlets rsp. the aquisition of existing (competition-) locations are the most effective single measures for realising the (necessary) growth. The pressure to invest in new outlets increases (BREHENY 1988, p.42).

ITA x AEFA ESA = 4.200 EUR / m As-Is area performance

The ratio between the As-Is area performance and the To-be area performance results in the competition index; hereby are three constellations possible:

CI =

As-Is area performance To-be area performance

CI = 1 normal competition CI > 1 weak competition CI < 1 strong competition

The result here is: 4200 / 4500 = 0,93 ; i.e. the distribution area is slightly overstaffed. Opening a new outlet would tend to result into a risky situation, a cutthroat competition is probable.

Definition of Order Picking


Order Picking" is the combination of determined subsets (articles) from a provided total quantity (assortment), based on demand information. The following basic functions are necessary with order picking: Provision of demand information, Provision of groups of articles, Contolled withdraw of subsets from the total quantity, Planned walking to the withdrawal coordinates and picking action, Transfer of the subsets to the next process station and signalling the execution

Characteristics of Inland Navigation Vessels


The special suitability of barges as means of transport is the result of high performance and load capacity, save transport process and good suitability for dangerous goods, any time enough and available cargo hold, favourable prices, low ecological damage because of low energy consumption, reduction of road traffic. The possible disadvantages are the low speed (which is nevertheless taken into account), the sporadical dependency on the water level, the glaciation and the relative small waterway net.

Logistics Performance Measurement

Logistics Performance Measurement = part of logistics controlling by means of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

Logistics Performance Measurement


The most important KPIs within the Procurement Logistics
Purchase = performance total order value p.a. in EUR costs of the purchasing department p.a. in EUR

This KPI valuates the performance of the purchasing departement; it indicates, which order value was realised per 1 EUR costs of the purchasing department. It is difficult to manipulate this KPI. Example: 50:1 Costs per order item = costs of the purchasing department p.a. in EUR number of order item p.a.

This KPI is necessary for the ANDLER-formula Purchase success = sum of price deviations / sum of planned prices x 100 [%]

A negative value indicates a negotiation success because the paid prices were lower than the planned prices.

Logistics Performance Measurement


The most important KPIs for warehousing
Average stock = (start stock + 12 ultimo stocks) / 13

Warehouse ex- (WER) = total costs of warehousing p.a. pense ratio average stock (capital lockup)

x 100 [%]

The costs of warehousing do not contain the interest costs of the capital lockup. Total Totalwarehousing warehousing (TWER) expense expenseratio ratio

= WER + interest for capital lockup

This KPI is necessary for the ANDLER-formula; normal value range: 15 25 %

Logistics Performance Measurement


The most important KPIs for warehousing

Inventory turnover = warehouse sales p.a. (pieces rsp. value) / average stock (pieces rsp. value) The inventory turnover is one of the mostly used KPI. The average turnover over the full assortment must be built only via values! Range of inventory in months = 12 months / inventory turnover

The range of inventory tells us, how long the average stock meets the normal demand without replenishment. The average range must be built using the average turnover.

Logistics Performance Measurement


The most important KPIs for warehousing an logistics

directly delivered number of pieces of an article Delivery x 100 [%] = service level demand of the customer Average delivery service level: sales realised / wished sales * 100 [%]

Logistics cost rate = costs of logistics / sales

x 100 [%]

Costs of logistics = depend on the definition, what logistics is: planning of materials, purchasing, goods receipt, included quality control, warehousing, in-house transport, External transport, order picking, packaging, shipping, logistics-IT-system, order processing, production planning and control (PPC) etc.
