Kapitel 3. Zukunftsforschung und Visionsmanagement: Entwicklung und Umsetzung von Logistikvisionen

Zusammenfassung

A logistics vision is the individual answer to alternative future pictures of logistics systems of enterprises or strategic networks. In the literature and in practise, we find very different opinions about the term vision.

Kapitel 5. Herausforderung für das Supply Chain Management im Omnichannel-Handel

Zusammenfassung

Non-food retailers and particularly fashion and apparel retailers suffer from intense competition in their markets. For many years, the German fashion market has been characterized by low growth rates; however, luxury and low-price competitors are reporting significant growth which proves that unclear positioning is severely punished. Off-price retailing is growing significantly mainly due to shorter product life cycles.

Kapitel 15. Logistik 4.0 – die sechs Säulen der Logistik in der Zukunft

Zusammenfassung

Many mega trends lead to a rising complexity within the supply chain. Executives have to manage this complexity in order to maintain or enhance competitiveness. One way to cope with it is the ideas of a demand driven material resource planning, which applies de-coupling, postponement, etc. to MRP-based standard software for supply chain planning. Such a concept helps to develop standard solutions in planning tools and to apply relevant concepts, practically. A full leverage of digitalization potentials, though, still has to be provided.
