Better Ways to Deliver the Goods.

Tipping point – when a small change has a great effect on changes that have accumulated over a period of time

In the article “Finding Better Way to Deliver the Goods” from page The Financial Times, the main idea is how logistics companies need to change their logistics operations due to rising oil prices and high emissions. Jonathan Wright is a supply chain consultant who want to explain to people that the hey is to understand where stocks should be stored to reduce some transportation costs. Transport costs and emissions decrease when stocks are kept closer to demand. Kimberly – Clark tries to explain that at least 70% of products must be produced and sold in the same country. Using this strategy, she saved the 500 thousand gallons of fuel in 2007, JAV. As well Professor Alan McKinnon, director of the Centre for Logistics Research at Heriot-Watt University in Scotland, has identified nine ways to reduce carbon emissions and costs in freight transport. It offers to transport goods by air and water, reduce the average length of travel, increase the capacity of transport vehicles, use low-carbon fuels. Judy Blackburn, head of the UK logistics team, is proposing to start sharing distribution centres and deliveries with other companies, which would help reduce transport costs by 15-25 per cent and significantly reduce carbon emission. In the future, it is projected that the products will be stored in common warehouses, general transport, which will deliver products to city centres and consolidated deliveries will be used for final delivery. In summary, it can be argued that delivery will be significantly simpler, more cost-effective and safer for the environment.
