Ways of Improving Logistics Organizational Effectiveness Strategic goal setting Resource acquisition and utilization Performance environment Communication process Leadership and decision making Organizational adaptation and innovation
Logistics/Supply Chain Organization A good organization structure does not by itself produce good performance--just as a good constitution does not guarantee great presidents, or good laws, or a moral society. But a poor organization structure makes good performance impossible, no matter how good the individual managers may be. To improve organization structure…will therefore always improve performance. Peter F. Drucker
Activity Fragmentation in the Supply Chain Responsibilities President Marketing Finance Operations Distribution channels Customer service Field inventories Revenue Cost of capital ROI Inventory carrying costs Supply alternatives and supply costs Warehousing Purchasing Transportation CR (2004) Prentice Hall, Inc. 15-4
Activity Fragmentation in the Supply Chain (Cont’d) Objectives President Marketing Finance Operations More inventory Frequent & short production runs Fast order processing Fast delivery Field warehousing Less inventory Cheap order processing Less warehousing Long production runs Lowest cost routing Plant warehousing 15-5 CR (2004) Prentice Hall, Inc.
Activity Fragmentation in the Supply Chain (Cont’d) Reasons for fragmentation Lack of understanding of key cost tradeoffs Traditions and conventions Other areas considered to be more important to the firm than logistics Organization structure can be in an evolutionary state Benefits of fragmentation elimination Encourages important cost tradeoffs to be effected Focuses on an important, defined area by top management Sets the structure within which control can take place
Organizational Choices Informal structure Persuasion of top management Coordinating committees Incentive arrangements Profit sharing Cross charges Semi-formal structure Matrix organization Formal structure Line--creates value in products, therefore it has operating status Staff--provides assistance to the line organization

What is Systems Analysis? Systems analysis refers to the orderly and planned observation of one or more segments in the logistics network or supply chain to determine how well each segment functions.
General Questions Why do we perform each task? What value is added by it? Why are the tasks performed in the order they are? Can we alter the sequence of the processing steps to increase efficiency? Why are the tasks performed by a particular group or individual? Could others perform this task? Is there a better way for the system to operate?
Problems in Systems Analysis Multiple business functions are impacted. There are trade-offs among conflicting objectives. Logistics system impacts are difficult to precisely evaluate. There are business issues unique to each logistics system.
Systems Integration: Logistics Activities Outside the Firm Third-party, or contract, logistics Integrated service providers Monitoring third-party performance

Supply Chain Security And Homeland Defense
Supply Chain Security “We have proved to our management that good security is good business.” — Ann Lister of Texas Instruments
Agenda What is Supply Chain Security How does it tie to Homeland Security? Is it Important? Is it a Problem? Risk Assessment Risk Management Conclusions/Questions
Important? September 11, 2001 - $2 billion per day lost Longshoremen Strike – 300-500 ships backed up Potential loss of attack to major port - $20 billion estimate 2008 estimate ~ 12 million containers into US; up to 200 million containers world wide
Problem? Terrorism Obsolescence Pilferage Information Breach Proprietary Data – Camera Phones; Thumb Drives Cyberspace Security RFID Data Security 66% of Sealift Containers arrive at 20 Major Ports >58 % of all inbound containers come through New York/New Jersey, Los Angeles, Long Beach ~44% through Los Angeles/Long Beach in 2003 Lengthening of Supply Chains – coupled with Globalization

Risk Assessment “If you do things the way you’ve always done them, you’ll get the same things you’ve always got.” -Darrell Waltrip This is not your Dad’s Supply Chain! Security is an integral part of the Supply Chain and Homeland Defense
Purpose of Risk Assessment Identify those areas of the supply chain that are vulnerable to interruptions of support flow. People Processes Technologies External events The identification and of hazards assessment of hazards to determine risk to include the probability and the resulting severity.
Risk Assessment Supply Chains are inherently complex, dynamic, and fluid, characterized by uncertainty, ambiguity, and friction. These characteristics cloud the operating environment: they create risks
Risk Assessment Terrorism Port Security – over 200 million containers annually Port Security – 300 US Ports Longshoremen Strike – 2002 Potential Airport Attack – LAX; MPS; LGA
Risk Assessment/Management Steps Identify the hazards. Assess hazards to determine risks. Develop controls and make risk decisions. Implement controls. Supervise and evaluate.
How do you identify your Supply Chain Risks? You have to know your processes Process maps Understanding processes Understanding where risks are Internal Risks External Risks
What are your Hazards? Theft Pilferage Competition Information Systems Cell Phones Thumb Drives Camera Phones Disgruntled Employees Lack of Training
What is Risk Management? “ The process of identifying, assessing, and controlling risks from operational factors and making decisions that balance the risk cost with the operational benefits.” US Army Field Manual 100-14
Risk Management “Risk management takes a new shape in extended supply chain. Risk management and the security of supply chains took on a new emphasis after the attacks of September 11, 2001 and the reactions of the world to security. Included in this heightened security awareness are initiatives such as C-TPAT and Homeland Security initiatives.” - Logistics Today
Risk Management Identify the hazards. Assess hazards to determine risks. Develop controls and make risk decisions. Implement controls. Supervise and evaluate.
Risk Management Conserving resources while avoiding unnecessary risk Deciding on the approval of an alternative Identifying feasible and effective control measures where specific standards do not exist
Risk Management Does Not: Does not take away the leader’s/manager’s initiative or decision making ability Eliminate risk or establish a climate of zero defects Allow the leader/manager to violate any laws
What is a Catastrophic Risk? Inaccurate receipts? Customer Satisfaction? Sloppy Warehousing? National Emergency? Hurricane? Or, Only when it makes it to CNN?
Risk Management Programs Mitigate Risk Eliminate Risk Consequences of Risk or Mitigation – probability and severity Courses of Action Analysis – Feasible, Suitable, Acceptable? Manage Risk not react to Risk!

Conclusion Risk Assessment Risk Management Operational Security Supply Chain Success
Final Thought With an estimated 12 million cargo containers coming into the United States, coupled with an increase in the amount of jobs taken off shore; The resultant increase in imports and an ever changing terrorist enemy: Supply chain security is extremely important to Homeland Defense!
