Description
Résumé:Few serious studies have attempted to analyze exactly how the logistics activity can be measured as a whole - its component parts are usually studied alone. In October 1985, a seminar was held on performance indicators in logistics by the Netherlands Association for Logistics Management. A model was presented whereby performance could be measured, and over the next few years, it was put to the test in several companies. It was found that the data necessary for performance measurement needed structuring. The results of ongoing research have been collected and published in a book called Performance Indicators in Logistics. The research is based on the control cycle, which is characterized by a number of essential stages and conditions necessary for its implementation. By combining a number of elements of the models considered, it appeared possible to construct a model for logistic applications that satisfies all of the functional specifications. The logistic input-output model is a schematic representation of reality with an operational character.
