The Management of Transshipment Terminals

Meer over het boek

Globalized industrial production is driving multinational companies to optimize supply chains for competitive advantages, resulting in longer and more complex logistics. Emphasizing reliability, cost efficiency, and responsiveness, businesses aim for low inventory levels and frequent transport. The Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model outlines detailed performance measures across four levels, focusing on metrics for reliability, flexibility, and cost. Levels 2-4 further operationalize these metrics, specifically evaluating transport and transshipment as vital components of the supply chain.
