Chapter 6 An overview of
logistics
Logistic management
Logistic management is that part of a supply chain management that plans, implements, and
controls the efficient, effective forwards-and-reverse flow of storage of goods, services, and related
information between the point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet customer
requirement.
Logistic strategies should be based on a customer’s wants and needs.
Economic Utility = The value or usefulness of a product in fulfilling customer’s needs or wants
Economic utility has four forms:
Possession, the value or usefulness that comes from a customer being able to take
possession of a product
Form, refers to a product being in a form that 1, can be used, and 2, can be of value
Time, Time is closely related to place, it’s when products are available when they are needed
Place, Place is closely related to time, it’s having products be available when they are
needed
These four together almost guarantees customer satisfaction. Time and place together are logistics.
Marketing Mix

Place
Price
Product
