-This takes stored materials and transports them to where they need to go. The issues in this involve moving materials; including loading, unloading and transportation, as well as keeping track of the [[stock]] and how it is used. This type of management controls the movement of supplies from a central warehouse to the stores that sell the [[product]] to the public.
+The concept of business logistics has been said to have transformed since the 1960s. As the need to supply companies with materials and resources grew over the years, so did the global expansion of supply chains along with specialists who grew in their niche & skills. Moving further into the modern era as well, the complexity of logistics processes have inspired the creation of logistics management software and have launched businesses that focus solely on accelerating the movement of resource along the supply chain. Manufacturing companies have even gotten to a point where they choose to outsource the management of their logistics to specialists; a field that is dominated by Third Party Logistics (3PLs) providers.
-. Production Logistics and Management
+Furthermore, being the in the thick of the digital era too, the logistics and supply chain industry has caught up and has taken strides toward digitizing internal and external processes. As mentioned in our The State Of Today’s Competitive Supply Chain: Digital, Smaller and More Resilient article, 90% of the supply chain execution expenditure will be in support of logistics digital applications and software by 2020. The IoT has already started allowing companies to digitally connect physical assets and enable the flow of data across the value chain, linking every piece of the product lifestyle.
-. [[Reverse Logistics]] and Product Return
+Digitized supply chains have also given customers insight and transparency into the logistics process where they have been allowed feedback on their transactions. Every user now feels like they are in control of the process, eventually leading to consumer satisfaction; a factor every business should be striving for. Technology has offered numerous benefits and opportunities when it comes to the supply chain and logistics field and these include advanced data analytics, ease of scalability, data security, cost saving, integration of multiple platforms, real-time tracking, and automated procedures.
