A long long time ago… logistics was born

June 22nd, 2006

Logistics and supply chain management have their beginnings in the middle ages? Yes, according to someone I spoke with recently. But I think it goes back to the caveman age. After all, hunts were organized to bring food back, co-ordinating over time and distance the logistics of the supply chain. Doing it right meant survival. Doing it wrong meant having to switch to alternative suppliers (vegetarianism or cannibalism?), moving to other locations, or starvation.

More on this history to come. For now, enjoy the summer and the ability to choose your food at leisure.

Logistics can be fun

March 12th, 2006

Logistics is both art, and science, and that means it has the essence of a good challenge. It consists of managing and organizing the efficient flow of resources from start to finish. Start being the beginning of production, and finish being the end consumption or marketplace. It all depends on the scope of the logistics that one is dealing with, as to where the fun begins, and where it ends.
