Logistics and Supply Chain

By Dewi Annisa Yakin, Fransiskus Allan Gunawan

Despite its enormous potential, in Indonesia there are not many integrated e-logistic services
businesses for online merchants, online stores, and shipping services to consumers. This is what
drives Gary Tanoesoedibjo to gush e-logistics services provider business through Storesend
eLogistic Indonesia (SSI) (Suryadi, 2018). As reported by Statista, in 2017, the total volume of
online shopping in Indonesia has reached US $ 4.89 billion and there is an increasing demand for
logistics efficiency and payment facilities (Maulana, 2018). One of them is Ramco ERP Logistics
System adopted from a global company based on cloud software, namely Ramco Systems. The
cooperation agreement between the two parties marks an important milestone in Ramco's journey
after entering the Indonesian market since 2017 (Rahayu, 2019).
In addition, logistic and transportation issuer PT Dewata Freightinternational Tbk (DEAL)
is preparing an e-logistics system with a block chain system to strengthen its business. Since 2018,
the issuer coded in DEAL shares has used the block chain system and provided an efficiency rate
of up to 15% (Hastuti, 2019). Entering the digital era, the logistics industry is increasingly giving
lucrative numbers. According to the Association of Indonesian Express Delivery Service
Companies (Asperindo), in 2017, the capitalization of courier services alone touched Rp 50 trillion
(Barus, 2019). At present, there have been two startup graduates from the Alibaba Netpreneur
2019 program, Faspay and Prahu-Hub collaborating to work on the logistics market in Indonesia.
Both of them focus on overcoming the challenges of shipping goods in the country (Annur, 2019).
To summarize, those organizations that will be the leaders in the markets of the future will
be those that have sought and achieved the twin peaks of excellence: they have gained both cost
leadership and service leadership (Christoper, 2011). Substitution allows the server manufacturer
to aggregate demand across the components, reducing safety inventories required. The value of
substitution increases as demand uncertainty increases. Thus, the manufacturer should consider
substitution for components displaying high demand uncertainty (Chopra, S., & Meindl, 2016).
The third SClS level, decision analysis, focuses on software tools to assist managers in identifying,
evaluating, and comparing supply chain and logistics strategic and tactical alternatives for
improved effectiveness. Typical analyses include supply chain design, inventory management,
resource allocation, routing, and segmental profitability (Bowersox, Closs, & Cooper, 2002).
 Volatility of the demands and sales of manufactured products has created intense global
competition (Agus, 2015). The firm can, to a degree, make up deficiencies in the speed or
flexibility of one of the supply chain parts by excelling in the other two (Agarwal, Shankar, &
Tiwari, 2006). An agile strategy uses a wait-and-see approach to market demand until accurate
demand is known. A suitable inventory of the subassembly of final products is hold with a lower-
cost assembly process close to the point of demand in order to localize the product (Kant, Pandey,
& Pattanaik, 2010).
The third stream is the one related to the Conceptual Views of Production and Supply Chain
Management. Research developments in both fields are discussed, analyzed, and referenced so
that they can provide a theoretical basis for this research (Souza, 2015). The first research question
concerns the relationship between stakeholders’ requirements, wants, and expectations as far as
quality performance in the wind turbine supply chain. As most manufacturers of wind turbines are
LE, and almost all suppliers and customers are small, there is an imbalance in the supply chain
(Chibba, 2017). The current waste management strategies at Damen are energy recovery, reuse
and recycling. Since the majority of waste is being incinerated, potential value is lost immediately:
resources are disposed to the sub-contractors who are paid for their incineration services and
additionally gain the energy generated (Fennema, 2014).
