 Academic Integrity
Students are required to:
 Work independently on individual assignments
 Collaborating on individual assignments is considered cheating.
 Avoid plagiarism
Plagiarism is an act of fraud that involves the use of ideas or words of another
person without proper attribution. Students will be accused of plagiarism if they:
 Copy in their work one or more sentences from another person without proper
citation.
 Rephrase, paraphrase, or translate another person’s ideas or words without
proper attribution.
 Reuse their own assignments, in whole or in part, and submit them for another
class.
 Work responsibly within a working group
 In cooperative group assignments, all students are required to stay on task and
contribute equally to the projects. Group reports should clearly state the
contribution of each group member.
o Any acts of academic dishonesty will result in a grade of zero for the task at hand
and/or immediate failure of the course, depending on the seriousness of the fraud.

 1. Basics Definition

 Definition of Logistics: Logistics is the function that is responsible

for the movement of materials (and information). It is responsible
for the transport and storage of materials between suppliers and
customers.

 According to the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals

(CSCMP), a professional organization for Logistics and SCM
professionals, logistics is defined as: “the process of planning,
implementing and controlling the efficient, effective flow and storage of
goods, services and related information from point of origin to point of
consumption for the purpose of conforming to customer requirements”

function: hoạt động đặc biệt; material: vật chất

transport: vận chuyển; storage: dự trữ

supplier: nhà cung cấp; consumer: người tiêu dùng
Basic Definition (contd.)
 The aim of all organizations is to supply some
products to their customers
 These products may be goods or service

Mainly Goods and Service Mainly

spectrum: dãy liên tục

goods: hàng hóa; service: dịch vụ
Basic Definition (contd.)
 Products: Goods (tangible) and Services (intangible)
 Operations: create and deliver the products. These
operations (process) converts inputs into outputs.

2. The Supply Chain

A SUPPLY CHAIN consists of the series of activities

and organizations that materials move through on their
journey from initial suppliers to final customers.

series of activities: một chuỗi các hoạt động

initial supplier: nhà cung cấp đấu tiên
final customer: người tiêu thụ/dùng cuối cùng

 Structure of the supply chain
 SUPPLY CHAIN = a series of activities and organizations that move materials
from initial suppliers to final customers

 Upstream supply chain activities: involve initial supplier, third tier supplier,
second tier supplier, first tier supplier

 Downstream supply chain activities: involve first tier customer, second tier
customer, third tier customer, final customer

3. Activities of Logistics

 Procurement/purchasing (quản trị mua hàng).

 Inward transport or traffic management
(vận chuyển hàng nhập)

 Receiving (nhận hàng)

 Warehousing or stores (trữ hàng, tồn kho, lưu kho)

30
3. Activities of Logistics (cont’d.)

 Stock control (kiểm soát tồn kho),

Order picking (gom hàng cho đơn hàng) and
Materials handling (vận chuyển nội bộ).
 Outward transport (vận chuyển hàng xuất)
 Physical distribution management (phân phối)
 Recycling (tái chế), returns (trả hàng) and waste
disposal (loại bỏ chất thải)
 Location (vị trí) & Communication (liên lạc)

4. Aims of logistics

 When you buy an item, what kind of contents will be

take into your consider?
4. Aims of logistics
 Logistics is responsible for the flow of materials through a
supply chain. This function is also called supply chain
management.

 LOGISTICS is the time-related positioning of resources, or

the strategic management of the total supply-chain
 The SUPPLY-CHAIN is a sequence of events intended to
satisfy a customer.

 The overall AIM OF LOGISTICS is to achieve high

customer satisfaction. It must provide a high quality
service with low – or acceptable – costs.

35
Development of logistics

pressures to the use of logistics

 Changes of Customers.
 Changes of Competition
 Other changes in retail markets
 International trade continues to grow.
 Organizations become to outsource peripheral
activities and concentrate on their core operations.
Current trends

 Improving communication
 Electronic data interchange (EDI)
 Electronic point-of-sales data (EPOS)
 e-purchasing of e-procurement
…
 Support of EDI:
 Item coding (often bar-coding)
 Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) 41
Current trends
 Improving customer service
 Lower lead-times (giảm thời gian chờ hàng)
 synchronized material movement
 mass customization (chuyên biệt hóa/tùy biến theo khách
hàng với khối lượng lớn)
 Other significant tendencies
 Globalization
 Reduced number of suppliers
 Concentration of ownership (tập trung quyền sở hữu)
 Outsourcing (thuê ngoài).
 Make or Buy.
42
 Current trends

 Other significant tendencies

 Cross-docking
 Direct delivery
 Stock reduction methods
 Increasing environmental concerns
 More collaboration along the supply chain

43
 Current themes
 LEAN Logistics
 faster deliveries, reduce stock levels, reduce handling, lower
costs, reduce waste etc.
 AGILE Logistics
 flexible and responsive, customized service, respond quickly to
a changing demand.
 INTEGRATION Logistics
 co-operate with other organizations

44
 Summary
❑ Every organization creates products to satisfy customer demand. The
operations that create these products need an effective and efficient flow
of materials. In this sense, ‘materials’ are all the goods and services
needed to create products.
❑ Logistics is the function that is responsible for the flow of materials
into, through and out of an organization.
❑ Materials move through a series of related activities and organizations
between initial suppliers and final customers. These form a supply chain.
Each product has its own supply chain.
❑ There are many possible structures for supply chains, but the simplest
view has materials converging on an organization through tiers of
suppliers, and products diverging through tiers of customers.
❑ Logistics consists of a series of related activities. These range from
procurement at the beginning of operations, through to physical
distribution at the end.

45
Summary (cont.)
❑ An overall aim for logistics is to achieve high customer
satisfaction or perceived product value. This must be achieved
with acceptable costs.
❑ Every organization depends on the movement of materials, and
the way this is done affects costs, profits, relations with suppliers
and customers, customer service, and virtually every other
measure of performance.
❑ There are a lot of pressures for improving logistics. Current
trends are: Improving communication, Improving customer service,
some other significant tendencies.
❑ Current themes:
LEAN logistics, AGILE logistics, INTEGRATION logistics.
