Executive summery
Logistic comprises the entire inbound and outbound segments of the
manufacturing and service supply chains. The growth of retail industry has triggered
the growth of logistics in India. Entry of global players has developed stiff
competition among the players.
The Indian economy has witnessed fast-paced growth over the last decade, making it
one of the preferred investment destinations for multinational corporations and a recognized
manufacturing hub to the world. This, in turn, has resulted in increased demand for world-
class logistics and warehousing services in India, leading to the growth and transformation of
this sector. The logistics sector has been growing at an impressive rate of 8 to 10 per cent per
annum since 2002 to touch revenues of $100 billion in 2007 - 08. The World Bank's 2007
Global Logistics Report ranks India 39 amongst 150 countries in terms of logistics
performance during the year as well as its future potential. Further, the Indian logistics
industry is expected to grow annually at the rate of 15 to 20 per cent, reaching revenues of
approximately US $ 385 billion by 2015. The accelerated growth of the logistics industry,
coupled with an increasing trend to outsource warehousing activities, has made India a vast
and untapped market.
The increasing cost of fuel, infrastructure facilities and competition, less
margin. Have increased the more concentration on vehicle routing and scheduling.
Many research have been conducted on routing and scheduling from 80s and new
methods are developed frequently. After computers are developed new softwares aredeveloped for routing and scheduling.
VRL is organized logistic service provider in India; where as 90% of the other
players are unorganized. VRL is the one of the organization that is continuous
growing in present competition.

Industrial Profile
Transportation:
Efficiently distributing freight and moving people has always been an
important factor for maintaining the cohesion of economic systems from empires to
modern nation states. With technological and economic developments, the means to
achieve such a goal have evolved considerably. The historical evolution of
transportation is very complex and is related to the spatial evolution of economic
systems. Transportation is a story of mens change and ingenuity in overcoming
obstacles, to conquer the land, seas and the air.
The Industrial Revolution and Transportation:
It was during industrial revolution that massive modifications of transport
systems occurred in two major phases. The first centered along the development of
canal systems and the second centered thermal energy into mechanical energy,
providing an important territorial expansion for maritime and railway transport
systems. Much of the credit of developing the first efficient steam engine in 1765 is
attributed to the British engineer Watt, although the first steam engine were used to
pump water out of mines. This marked a new era in the mechanization of land and
maritime transport system alike.
The main consequence of the industrial revolution was a specialization of
transportation services and the establishment of large distribution networks of raw
materials energy.
International transportation undertook an important phase of growth towards
the end the 19th century, especially with improvement in engine propulsion
technology and gradual shift from coal to oil in the 1980s.
Early self-propelled road vehicles were powered by steam, as electricity
opening the way for the modern automobile was the invention of the internal
combustion engine, fueled by gasoline, 1876. Within a few decades, automobile andother motor vehicles such as trucks and buses were everywhere. Highways were built

and then improved to accommodate the ever-increasing number of vehicles. Gasoline
stations and other auxiliary services were established.
Land transportation is the effect since the invention of the internal combustion
engine has been marked by improved vehicle design and new applications of power.
Modifying the internal combustion engine to use of oil rather than gasoline produced
the diesel engine, which provides economical power for locomotive, large motor
vehicles and increasingly automobiles. Electricity is widely used to power railways
and rapid transit systems.
To meet the challenge of capacity expanding transportation needs, extensiveresearch and development projects have been undertaken. Planners are attempting to
develop a coordinated system of public and private transport. Their goal is to reduce
or eliminate many problems such as congestion, delay and air pollution that modern
man encounter in transporting himself, his family and his products over land.
Historical background
Right from the pre-historic times, trade has been the most significant
achievement that mankind has ever got par with and the conquest for excellence still
continues. This even gets justified when VRL look at the present day
structure of the world economy solely based on trade and commerce. The term
trade comes along with the supply and demand of the goods and commodities being
traded. To enable an increase in sphere of influence of the products, the
companies want their product to be available to their customers and also to
search for potential customers by exploring newer markets. This requires heavytransportation (selection of mode of transport depends upon the proximity of market
to be served and the financial constraints of the organization) and hence, the term
Logistics.
Logistics, as defined classically, is the time related positioning of goods,
has been in place ever since warfare existed between mankind. Tracing on the history
and evolution of logistics, it would be correct to say that Military logistics is the
predecessor of modern business logistics. Its in fact appropriate to take a field of

military warfare into modern day business, as the competitive environment today is
no less fierce than the wars fought by mankind, let alone the weaponry. The
basic military strategy of protecting ones own supply while attacking those of an
enemy can be rephrased to suit modern day business as follows. The usage
Competitive advantage over rivals is very much in vogue in management
vocabulary. Various military practices have been adopted into commercial world to
gain this competitive advantage. The field of operations research also grew out of the
military logistics efforts of WWII.
Through the time, as the competition between firms increased, the
focus shifted to the details of the strategy as to provide the right item in the right
quantity at the right time at the right place for the right price to the right person (very
much the realization of 4 Ps of Marketing). This condition called for the
integration of information, transportation, inventory, warehousing, material handling
and packaging which further led to the need of highly efficient systems to attain these
goals. The branch of business logistics evolved in the 1950s. The reason for the
evolution being the need for supplying ones own business with the materials and
shipping out the products in a globalised supply chain. During 80s, there was
increased globalization and an increased use of IT. These trends resulted in increased
demands on firms and possibilities for companies to operate more competitive and
lean. It was during this time that many successful 3PL companies of today emerged.
Some of them are:
DHL/Exel, FedEX, Kuehne-Nagel, Schenker, UPS, Panalpina, C.H. Robinson, TNT Logistics, Schneider, Maersk Logistics NYK Logistics. VRL Logistic LTD

Third party logistics
Third party logistics (3PL) or contract logistics is thus the supply chain
practice of outsourcing the various logistics functions of inbound freight, customs
consolidation, ware housing, distribution, and outbound freight to the
client's customers. The 3PL provider executes these logistics functions on behalf
of the client company by using own assets resources. This provides the service user
company to concentrate more on its core competences while at the same time
operating in a leaner fashion without owning many assets, thereby reducing the
overall operational costs. The resources and funds that would otherwise have been
utilized for the performance of the logistics functions can be now redirected towards
improving operational efficiency in other disciplines.
India is not aloof as well, when VRL talk about the utilization of 3rd Party
logistics by companies in India, it has been 55% when compared to the global index
of 71%. This further testifies the increasing role and understanding of
optimal business practices by the Indian firms. With the relaxation in government
policies and banking on the highly skilled and educated labor force, the
industries in India (specifically; Manufacturing and Services) are in the phase of
expansion and with globalization in its full fray, the companies here too are looking to
supply its products throughout the globe to increase its market presence and this
active participation in the world trade makes Indias position as inevitable in the 3PL
usage. Moreover, the rapidly growing Indian Consumer Market and the
increase in consumption expenditure has made the Indian customer sensitive
towards the quality and speed of the service being provided, due to which the
organizations are forced to go for3rdParty Logistics so that they can concentrate
on their competencies i.e. production by outsourcing the critical processes of the
Supply Chain to the experts thereby lowering their costs. DHL was the first company
to begin 3rdParty Airlift Cargo operations in India in the late 70s.

and management. Trailers are normally included; contract terms are 1-7 years.
Asset-based Value-Added Warehousing/Distribution (VAWD):
3PLs normally providing long term contract warehousing or distribution
centre operations with a host of value-adds
Types of 3PL Providers
3PL firms promote themselves as provider of a comprehensive range of
logistics services. It is useful to categorize them in one of the following ways:
Transportation Based:
The 3PL services provided by this type of firms are leveraged, in that way
they utilize the assets of other companies, and some are non-leveraged, where the
principal emphasis is on utilizing the transportation-based assets of the parent
organization. Basically, these firms extend beyond the transportation activity to a
more comprehensive set of logistics offerings. Few transportation-based
suppliers are Ryder, Menlo logistics, Schneider Logistics, FedEx Logistics and UPS
Logistics.
Warehouse/Distribution Based:
Traditionally, most Warehouse/Distribution based logistics suppliers have
been in the public or contract warehousing business and have expanded into
a broader range of logistics services. Based on their traditional orientation, these
firms are in Inventory Management, Warehousing, Distribution, etc. Examples of
such firms are DSC Logistics, USCO, and Excel, Caterpillar Logistics
Services, IBM.
Forwarder Based:
This category includes companies like Kuehne & Nagel, Fritz, C.H Robinson
and Hub Group. They have expanded their middleman roles as forwarders and/or
brokers into the broader range of 3PL services. Essentially, these firms are non-asset
owners, are very independent and deal with a wide variety of suppliers in logistics
services.

functions and more of their strengths and leave the job of logistics on the 3PL
providers. Basically an organization is saved of the trouble of focusing on this aspect
and not spread their functions so wide.
Effectively reach their customers:
Providing finished products to actual customers can be hindered with many
problems from the organizational point of view. This is a affecting the organizations
around the globe. A 3PL services provider reduces this trouble of the
organizations. They take up this job of reaching the customers and delivering the
products on time and effectively.
Increased sales and market share:
With expansion in newer markets, organizations benefits a lot in increasing
their sales as well as their market share in the fiercely competitive global economy.
Thus 3PL services contribute a lot in the profitability of the organizations.
Flexibility in operations:
Access to 3PL services brings in a lot of flexibility in the overall operations of
the organizations. They take up an important part of their activities that helps in
improving their other important operations of the organization.
