What is supply chain logistics?

The flow of products within supply chain logistics can move in various directions and is typically categorized into four different areas:

Inbound: The movement of goods from suppliers to production.

This includes storing and transporting materials, products and information from suppliers through the warehouse and into manufacturers’ facilities for processing and production. 

Outbound: The movement of finished products from production facilities to the next supply chain link.

This is the process by which goods move through the warehouse into the hands of the end users and is often referred to as the order fulfillment process.

Reverse Logistics: Moving products from the end users back through the supply chain.

This usually happens in the event of customer returns or with products that need repairs/servicing, resale, recovering or recycling/proper disposal. For more information on reverse logistics, visit ascm.org/lp/reverse-logistics/.

3PL logistics: Outsourcing logistics responsibilities to an external buyer and supplier team.

3PL logistics allows companies to receive orders and promptly deliver products even when they don’t have the necessary staff or the inventory storage facilities required to handle the order processing. Other types of outsourced logistics functions include:

Green logistics: Focuses on reducing the environmental impact of logistics operations by optimizing transportation routes to minimize fuel consumption and emissions, implementing energy-efficient warehouse practices, using eco-friendly packaging and adopting technology to improve resource utilization. 4PL logistics: Choosing one outside supplier to oversee and manage the entire supply chain, including fulfillment, transportation and technology.
