章节摘录

  Many of the logistical techniques learned during World War II were temporarilyignored during the postwar surge in economic activity. Marketing managers turned their attention to filling the postwar demand for goods. It was not until therecessions of the 1950s that managers started to examine their physical distributionnetworks. In 1958, the recession and profit squeeze created an environment inwhich business began searching for more effective cost-controls systems. Almostsimultaneously, many firms realized that physical distribution and logistics were activities whose cost had neither been carefully studied nor coordinated. A number of other trends were becoming apparent, and they made it necessary to focus attention on product distribution. Eight trends can be identified.  First, transportation costs rose rapidly. Traditional methods of distribution hadbe come more expensive, and management became aware of the need to controlthese costs better. In the 1970s, these factors became more critical, with fuelprices soaring and spot shortages of fuel occurring. Transportation could no longerbe considered as a stable factor in the business planners equations. Higher-levelmanagement had to become involved in transportation-related aspects of logistics atboth the operating and policy levels because of the many new decisions that had tobe made to adapt to the rapid changes in all areas of transport. Staring in the late1970s, deregulation of common-carrier transportation changed many of the long-established "rules of the game" that had governed shippers use of transportation. Many new operating-and policy-level decisions had to be made by the users oftran sport in order to take advantage of the new laws.  Second, production efficiency was reaching a peak. It was becoming very difficult to generate significant additional cost savings because the "fat" had been taken out of production. Physical distribution and logistics, however, were relatively untouched from an efficiency perspective.  Third, there was a fundamental change in inventory philosophy. At one time, retailers held approximately half of the finished product inventory, and wholesalers and manufacturers held the other half. Beginning in the 1950s, more sophisticated inventory-control techniques, especially in the grocery business, reduced total amounts of inventory and changed the proportions to only 10 percent held by retailers and 90 percent by distributors and manufacturers.
