On a purely logistical level (assuming minimal internal political considerations), this decision must take into account the uncertainties in the calculation of the transportation costs from the central location to peripheral (satellite) stores, the operating costs, the required capital investment and the cost of transportation subject to gas price fluctuations. This article addresses the above questions using an adequate software tool, and provides the methodological framework for the modelling of such business decisions; furthermore, it demonstrates the feasibility and the reliability of the proposed approach and corroborates its findings with a realistic example.","PeriodicalId":243859,"journal":{"name":"Logistics eJournal","volume":"120 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134362353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study addresses key issues relating to extent of usage of third party logistics services, implementation issues, obstacles and plans of current users of contract logistics services. Results based on a survey shows that there are some differences on the use of contract logistics services in Malaysia and Saudi Arabia. Firms in Malaysia have a longer history of logistics outsourcing as compared to Saudi Arabia. The paper presents a report of these differences and similarities and makes a comparative analysis.","PeriodicalId":243859,"journal":{"name":"Logistics eJournal","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128350044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nagashabhushana, Janat Shah","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.2166734","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.2166734","url":null,"abstract":"This paper is based on a survey on manufacturing practices of Indian companies. The purpose was to get an insight into manufacturing priorities and action programmes. The study was also designed to capture the behaviour of manufacturing in the changing environment. Results indicate that manufacturing companies consider cost, quality and delivery as important objectives to be pursued, in that order, with lower priority for the flexibility – preference being for those aspects which can give immediate returns. Action programmes for achieving these objectives emphasise shop‐floor activities and also favour adapting softer options like worker training, periodic reviews etc. Companies seem to be reluctant to adopt approaches requiring either substantial investments or major organisation restructuring. Action programmes proposed by these companies for the future show no significant change when compared to the present, indicating no major shift in approach.","PeriodicalId":243859,"journal":{"name":"Logistics eJournal","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123498379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
