  1. Linking logistics techniques:a model to determine potentials Reinder Pieters Research Institute for LogisticsHAN University for Professional EducationArnhem, THE NETHERLANDS LINDI 2007 Wildau

  2. Development of logistics LINDI WILDAU 2007

  3. Main goal for logistics • Reaching objectives • Effective • Reducing costs • Efficiency • 2 goals, hard to obtain simultaneously LINDI WILDAU 2007

  4. Push versus pull LINDI WILDAU 2007

  5. Example Pull: JIT • Not time is important, but stock • Zero inventory • Or deliver late LINDI WILDAU 2007

  6. Example push: MRP1 • Ensure that time as promised is met • Runs on keeping (high) levels of stocks • Does not take capacity into account LINDI WILDAU 2007

  7. Conclusion • When looking for one aspect, you have to give something else up • Once people have got used to one aspect being well done, they want the other(s) as well and find that this is (almost) impossible to achieve with the presently used tools • Result: frustration and always need to change policies within logistics, or acceptance. • 3 aspects seem to dominate push/pull models: • Time • Stock • Capacity LINDI WILDAU 2007

  8. So why not show in advance the expected pro’s and cons of a chosen model/tool? LINDI WILDAU 2007

  9. LINDI WILDAU 2007

  10. Suggested place in the triangle LINDI WILDAU 2007

  11. Could be used as a warning for what might be expected and what not LINDI WILDAU 2007

  12. Conclusions: • We should find better ways to explain those not blessed with a thorough understanding of logistics what a choice can bring and what will be hard to achieve while using this logistic tool LINDI WILDAU 2007
