Supply Chain Management (SCM)
• A supply chain is a set of organizations directly linked by one or more of the upstream and downstream flows of products, services, finances, and information from a source to a customer. Managing a supply chain is 'supply chain management'. In literature, logistics and SCM are often used interchangeably, though there is a subtle difference between the two. While SCM is more strategic in nature, logistics is more operations-oriented

Business Process
Distribution infrastructure of logistics companies
Conclusions and recommendations• The Indian logistics industry is going through a transformation. The sector will
see an unprecedented growth in the coming years with improved infrastructure and a uniform tax structure. This will improve logistics performance and bring down overall product cost making Indian products globally competitive.
• DTDC has good distribution network for cargo business as compared to its competitors. But when it comes to courier business it does not have the adequate reach to compete with the other courier companies who have huge distribution infrastructure and compete on low prices.
• From the survey of outlets, DTDC (37%) is the preferred player in logistics services for cargo business and Safexpress (21%) is its nearest competitor. But when it comes to courier services it has many competitors like Gati, Blue Dart and First Flight.
• DTDC should expand its distribution network by setting up more outlets in prime locations which will increase its revenues and also increases the brand visibility.
• DTDC’s vehicles on road are a good mode of promotion, but it should step up its promotion efforts by aggressively promoting its services through sign boards, hoardings and media ads. It should support its outlets to promote the services of DTDC in their locality by providing adequate promotional material.
