Executive Summary

Too often, business is viewed from the “oversight or high level”, consequently not enough attention is given to the critical operating components necessary for growth and ongoing performance.

The speed at which events occur sometimes causes us to lose sight of the critical micrologistics components necessary for logistics excellence and commercial success.

Sight may also be lost with respect to the impact that each functional responsibility, micrologistics component or department has on each other and therefore the company as a whole.

The corporate view from the logistics perspective offers every enterprise the opportunity to identify and recognize each department, discipline and respective relationship. By understanding these relationships and managing them effectively, the corporate enterprise immediately gains an excellent resource. This resource can become an entirely new and highly energized “corporate knowledgebase”. In order to harness this energy and focus its attention on business challenges, we must accept that interdepartmental and interdisciplinary relationships must exist. Next, a process should be created that will channel the challenges through the corporate knowledgebase.
