Adaptive Search and the Management of Logistic Systems

More about the book

The book explores the transformation of logistics management in response to global competition and rising customer expectations. It emphasizes the need for a holistic approach, integrating all actors in the supply chain—from suppliers to consumers. By shifting from aggregated to disaggregated forecasting, logistics can better align with specific customer requirements, enhancing efficiency and effectiveness. This modern perspective promotes a responsive rather than anticipatory logistics model, focusing on smaller units and shorter planning cycles to optimize the flow of goods and services.
