Which one is, in general, to be preferred? Give preconditions and reasons for your answer (14-17).a) Systemsapproach
- Open system: company
- Elements (subsystems): procurement, production, distribution, disposal
b) Process approach
-Focus is on relations between the different core segments of the supply chain for one (logistic) process
Functionalapproach
- Focus is on the relations between the specific logistic service functions of each single core segment of the supply chain
Procurement and procurement logistics
Production and production logistics Distribution and distribution logistics Disposal and disposal logistics
Process approach is a common way of improving the performance of an organization. It promotes the smooth and transparent
flow of operations and informations
within the organization, it allows an organization to focus on improving its effectiveness and efficiency by focusing
on end products and customers. - 8Describe the basic approach of logistic planning. Evaluate the parameters of logistic planning, and give an example for a logistic planning model (4-6).Horizon ( short term, medium term, long term)

Time- series models
Example: demand for factors of production - 9Discuss the main objective of internal transport planning (11). Describe and analyse possible logistic transport processes (12)..Internal transport :
Efficient and effective „change of location“ between „receipt of goods“, „storage“, „production/processing“, and „sending out of goods“
____________________
Processes
Transport/shipment (from A to B)
Collecting/bringing together goods (from different locations)
Separate goods (at one location)
Buffer (temporary storage of) goods
Distribute goods (to different locations) - 10Analyse purposes and tasks of procurement logistics. Differentiate between the strategic and operational perspectiveOptimisation of procurement chain
Coordination of suppliers and goods
Procurement in case of need.
_________________________________
The most important difference between a strategic and an operational objective is its time frame; operational objectives are short-term goals, while strategic objectives are longer-term goals.
______________________________-
STRATEGIC
- market policy and research
- procurement strategies
- supplier relationship
OPERATIONAL
- purchase management
- operational logistics
- e-procurement - 11Name and assess relevant procurement strategies. Refer to examples from logistic practice- Number of suppliers; single, dual or multiple sourcing

- 13In what way can product structures be considered a determinant of production logistics?Product structure
- How many different products?
- Production volume of each product?
- How many components per (semi)finished product?
- Are components used for one or many (semi)finished product/s?
-> Logistic intensity (ABC products) - 14Describe and assess the principal production structures, e.g., shop assembly,1. Shop assembly [Werkstattfertigung]
all similar working assets are concentrated at one location; location of assets determines production sequence → performing principle - 15assembly line2. Assembly line
location of production assets is result of production sequence → object principle;
conveyor line production (direct combination), line production (no direct connection) - 16construction site assembly.3. Construction site assembly
assets are transported to location of production (object principle) - 17Analyse the relevance of single- and multi-stage production and of the lot size for the complexity of production logistics (7-8).Single-/multi-stage, complexity (linear, synthetic, ...)

-High health and safety standards, technical reliability
Constraints
- Physical characteristics of products, transport vehicles or other
equipment
-Availability of sites, buildings, assets and staff
-Working conditions of employees, production processes

qualitative detoriation of resources (→ sustainability)
- Non-availability of disposal sites, higher disposal costs
- European/national regulations (→ principles: precaution, responsible party is liable for damage, polluter pays)
- Change in social values („environmental responsibility“) → Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
