PUNE 2-4 December 2009: As delegates assembled in Pune, India’s car sales figures for November were released – and they made startling reading. Growth is back in India: market leader Maruti Suzuki saw sales jump 60% over the same month in 2008 (though only 17% up on 2007); Tata Fiat was up 55%; Hyundai up 93%; GM up 65%; and Mahindra more than doubled at 102%. The figures confirm that late 2008 was just a brief pause in the upward trajectory of car production and sales. But logistics is groaning under the strain. Both speakers and delegates lamented the low cost/low investment logistics model which exists in the automotive sector in India. OEMs called for a significant increase in the low level of involvement from sophisticated 3PLs.

Value Chain, as Michael Porter's definition is those activities that add value to the products and/or service provided by the company. Additionally, to achieve advantages over competitors, those activities should be run at an optimized level with careful research and strict supervision. In the first part, Supply Chain and Demand Chain are researched and in the second part, a particular industry sector will be taken into consideration to shed light on the role of engineering and by that reveal the importance of engineering in the management of Value Chain. (Porter 1985) Introduction Nowadays enterprises are facing a number of issues to maintain and expand their business.

...TRANSPORT & LOGISTICS Reverse Logistics in the Supply Chain a report by James R Stock Professor of Marketing and Logistics, University of South Florida James R Stock is a professor of Marketing and Logistics at the University of South Florida, Tampa. He is the author or co-author of more than 90 publications in the area of logistics. His specialities are in the areas of reverse logistics and the marketing-logistics interface. Currently, Dr Stock serves as Editor of the International Journal of Physical Distribution and Logistics Management and is a frequent speaker and consultant on reverse logistics and other logistics topics throughout North America, Europe and Africa. In evaluating the importance of logistics within supply chains, many published ‘lists’ of logistics attributes have reverse logistics rated relatively low in importance. Such ratings are, however, misleading. Product quality, competitive prices, consistent order cycle times, ontime deliveries and low damage rates have traditionally been very important, and will continue to be so in the future. Today, they are the ‘price of admission’ to the competitive arena. Many competitors have reached parity on many of these important logistics attributes and they have become standard offerings of these companies and basic requirements of customers. Organisations not meeting standards on these attributes are usually not even considered in purchasing and/or outsourcing decisions. When a firm achieves acceptable...

...Introduction Today there is great interest in the technology class BIG DATA, connected with the continued growth of data that have to operate large companies. The accumulated information for many organizations is an important asset, but handle it and benefit from it every day becomes more and more expensive. In my essay, I will try to describe the concept of "big data" and explain how it works. What "Big data" means? The concept of big data is rapidly gaining popularity. However, the exact idea of what constitutes a concept is not at all, especially for people outside the IT-sphere. The easiest way to explain this ignorant man on a practical example. Two years ago, a huge network of Target stores began using machine learning in the interaction with customers. As a training sample used data collected by the company for several years. As markers of specific customers to use banking and nominal discount cards. Algorithms analyze how and in what conditions were changing consumer preferences, and make predictions. And, on the basis of these forecasts, the buyer makes all sorts of special offers. In the spring of 2012, a scandal broke out when the father of twelve years old school girl complained that his daughter sent leaflets with suggestions for pregnant women. When the network is already prepared Target recognize the error and apologize to the aggrieved customers, it turned out that the girl really was pregnant, even though she and her father at the time of the complaint did...

...chain is considered a mission critical application (MCA) supply chain because lives are involved. The cost of delay in responding to a disaster is costly and therefore less attention is paid to the financial implications as compared to the commercial supply chain and thus fast response becomes imperative. Logistics is central for effective and efficient humanitarian assistance to be provided and the operation of humanitarian supply chains has a massive impact on quality and speed of the assistance to be provided. In addition, logistics activities (from purchasing to the last-mile delivery of items) account for a very large share of the cost in a disaster relief operation. Positive improvement on humanitarian supply chain logistics has a great potential in delivering huge positive impact for people affected by disasters. Aim of Report The aim of this report is to critically assess the administration and delivery Humanitarian Supply Chain scenario (i.e. aid to victims of natural disaster by aid agencies around the world) and to look at challenges in using technologies in managing sustainable supply chain response. Objective of the Report The objective of this report includes the following: 1. To assess a typical humanitarian supply chain scenario for a natural disaster highlighting the key issues and challenges faced. 2. To assess the role of stakeholders and local involvement in disaster assessment and management. 3. To assess innovative applications...
