INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS
International logistics is the design and management of a
system that controls the forward and reverse flow of materials,
services, and information into, through, and out of the international
Marketplace.

INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS (CONT.)
• Through the implementation of international logistics, the firm can implement cost-saving programs such as just-in-time (JIT), electronic data interchange (EDI), and early supplier involvement.
• The two phases of the movement of materials include:
• materials management, or the timely movement of materials, parts, and supplies.
• physical distribution, or the movement of the firm’s physical final product to its customers.

CENTRALIZED LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT
• In international logistics, the existence of a headquarters
staff that retains decision-making power over logistics is
important.
• To avoid internal problems, both headquarters staff and
local management should report to one person.
• This individual can contribute an objective view when
inevitable conflicts arise in international logistics
coordination.
![Page 8: Week 14 GSCM-Final Week-PDF](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051218/5695d1111a28ab9b02950093/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

DECENTRALIZED LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT
• When a firm serves many diverse international markets,
total centralization might leave the firm unresponsive to
local adaptation needs.
• If each subsidiary is made a profit center in itself, each
one carries the full responsibility for its performance.
• Once products are within a specific market, increased
input from local logistics operations should be expected
and encouraged.

TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE
• A firm’s logistics platform is determined by a location’s
ease and convenience of market reach under favorable
cost circumstances.
• The public sector’s investment priorities, safety
regulations, tax incentives, and transport policies can
have major effects on the logistics decisions of firms.
• The logistics manager must learn about existing and
planned infrastructures abroad and at home and factor
them into the firm’s strategy.

EXPORT DOCUMENTATION
• A bill of lading is a contract between the exporter and the
carrier indicating that the carrier has accepted
responsibility for the goods and will provide transportation
in return for payment.
• A commercial invoice is a bill for the goods stating basic
information about the transaction, including a description
of the merchandise, total cost of the goods sold, addresses
of the shipper and seller, and delivery and payment terms.
• A freight forwarder specializes in handling export
documentation.

12
INTERNATIONAL INVENTORY ISSUES
• Inventories tie up a major portion of corporate funds, therefore proper inventory policies should be a major concern to the international logistician.
• Just-in-time inventory policies minimize the volume of inventory by making it available only when needed.
• The purpose of establishing inventory systems are:
• to maintain product movement in the delivery pipeline
• to have a cushion to absorb demand fluctuations
![Page 13: Week 14 GSCM-Final Week-PDF](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051218/5695d1111a28ab9b02950093/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
INTERNATIONAL PACKAGING ISSUES
• Packaging is instrumental in getting the merchandise to
the destination in a safe, presentable condition.
• Because of the added stress of international shipping,
packaging that is adequate for domestic shipping may be
inadequate for international shipping.
• Packaging considerations that should be taken into
account are environmental conditions and weight.
• One solution to the packaging problem has been the
development of inter-modal containers.
• Cost attention must be paid to international packaging.
![Page 14: Week 14 GSCM-Final Week-PDF](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051218/5695d1111a28ab9b02950093/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
STORAGE FACILITIES
• A stationary period is involved when merchandise
becomes inventory stored in warehouses.
• The location decision addresses how many distribution
centers to have and where to locate them.
• Storage facilities abroad can differ in availability and
quality.
• The logistician should analyze international product
sales and then rank order products according to
warehousing needs.
![Page 15: Week 14 GSCM-Final Week-PDF](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051218/5695d1111a28ab9b02950093/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
OUTSOURCING LOGISTICS SERVICES
• The systematic outsourcing of logistics capabilities is a third option.
• By collaborating with transportation firms, private warehouses, or other specialists, corporate resources can be concentrated on the firm’s core product.
• One-stop logistics allows shippers to buy all the transportation modes and functional services from a single carrier.
![Page 16: Week 14 GSCM-Final Week-PDF](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051218/5695d1111a28ab9b02950093/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

LOGISTICS AND SECURITY
• After the terrorist attacks of 2001, companies have to deal with
the fact that the pace of international transactions has slowed
down and that formerly routine steps will now take longer.
• Logistics systems and modern transportation systems are
often the targets of attacks.
• The need to institute new safeguards for international
shipments will affect the ability of firms to efficiently plan their
international shipments.
![Page 17: Week 14 GSCM-Final Week-PDF](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051218/5695d1111a28ab9b02950093/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
LOGISTICS AND THE ENVIRONMENT
• Since environmental laws and regulations differ across the globe, the firm’s efforts need to be responsive to a wide variety of requirements.
• Reverse distribution systems are instrumental in ensuring that the firm not only delivers the product to the market, but also can retrieve it from the market for subsequent use, recycling, or disposal.
• Companies need to learn how to simultaneously achieve environmental and economic goals.
