Logistics Management
About this Module
Fundamentally, supply chain management concerns how to convert a product from raw materials at suppliers into a final product delivered to the end consumer. This module examines the logistics that facilitate that delivery. You will first discover considerations in facility network design, followed by a description of different shipping modes, such as trucks, planes, and ships. Straightforward cost calculations are presented that can facilitate the proper choice of shipping mode. Finally, five different downstream consumer distribution networks are described.
