High capacity utilization, low inventories, short throughput times and high adherence to delivery dates: these goals cannot be achieved simultaneously in production. In logistical positioning, you determine to what extent you want to achieve which of the four logistical target values mentioned above. Achievable target combinations can be determined by means of operating characteristics or planning simulation.
Our tip:
Define the logistical positioning required for your company and competitive situation and stick to it. Because every successful logistics operation begins with logistical positioning.
Short & sweet: Logistical positioning
