Definition - What does Logistics mean?

 Logistics refers to the movement, storage, and distribution of

goods from initial production to final delivery, completed in a way
so as to meet the consumer’s expectations.
 More simply, logistics is all about ensuring processes are in place
so that the end-user can actually receive the product they order.
 Logistics is mechanical in nature, with the focus being heavily on
finding the path of least resistance when delivering to the
customer.
 Supply chain management
What does Supply Chain Management (SCM) mean?
Supply chain management (SCM) is the broad range of activities
required to plan, control and execute a product's flow, from
acquiring raw materials and production through distribution to the
final customer, in the most streamlined and cost-effective way
possible.
Objectives of Supply Chain
The objectives are :

To maximize the overall value generated. The value a

supply chain generates is the difference between what the
final product is worth to the customer and the effort the
supply chain expends in filling the customer’s request .

To achieve maximum supply chain profitability . Supply

chain profitability is the total profit to be shared across all
supply chain stages .

To reduce the supply chain costs to the minimum possible

level.
 Conclusion
Supply Chain Management (SCM) involves joint collaboration between
outsourcing partners, suppliers, and customers. It comprises the transformation of
goods from raw materials through to the delivery of the finished product; it also
includes the management of key information flows. SCM involves the integration
of these activities and aims to improve relationships between the various parties,
while achieving a sustainable competitive advantage through high quality and
lower cost products. SCM is closely linked with enterprise resource planning
(ERP) and electronic commerce systems.
