Continuous improvement in the realm of supply chain and global logistics management & development plays a very big important role becasue it allows us to address some very important issues that are usually identified but rarely acted upon. One of these is : "How do we get the most value out of our network? And if so, how do we tackle the most important issues that are of startegic importance to us?". It is in this view that I plan to uncover some really important issues that to me are very important to your organization.

  1. Global Logistics Management allows new commercial strategies targeted at developing international markets to place the organization at a distinct advantage. An 'Internationalization strategy' usually includes different elements and decisions about internationalization which are strategic choice and critical to firms' growth. Partnerships and Foreign Operations set-up are one way to go to market (which implies relying on foreign supply chain operations, due to constrained financial and manpower resources). If companies require 'direct' market knowledge in order to operate viably overseas, the the risk level increases. I have operated in supply chains of both dimensions and I can pinpoint the potential challenges that are involved in both thypes of operations. Management and Control in both cases are clearly very different.

  2. Supply Chain Management is a much wider encompassing function and set of responsibilities however the interaction with logistics management activities are not be underestimated. It is in this view that I select the nest possible avenues in order to improve your network. Think of bottlenecks  - what are the ripple effects across the supply chain that have originated from one point in the chain (too much inventory purchased as a result of unreliable demand patterns and unstable transportation networks, for example).

  3. Global trends : xxx

  4. Global Trade Development : I specialize in dry and containerized cargo, cold chain and temperature comtrolled, break bulk and over dimensional freight. Different types of cargo require different logistical infrastructures and I can advise you how to operate them efficiently. Selection of the suitable combination of logistics providers and negotiation of rates in line with market trends are juts two of the most important decisions you will need to take to operate efficiently at a global level.
