  6. Center for Logistics, Trade and Transportation – Preamble Overview CLTT at Southern Miss was created as the result of an integrated effort of industry, government and Southern Miss. The CLTT provides a competitive advantage to industry and government agencies through its multidisciplinary activities in Logistics, Trade and Transportation. The CLTT mission is to respond to the Gulf-region government and industry stakeholders’ need for the creation and dissemination of practical, cutting-edge, interdisciplinary knowledge and technologies to advance logistics, trade and transportation; foster economic development; and promote an integrated freight system within the Americas

  10. What is Logistics Transportation? • It is the efficient movement of goods from the origin to the destination. • Efficient means – • Right place/person • Right time • Right product • Right condition & • Right price

  11. What is Logistics Transportation? Its not a single activity rather a process. Can be also Categorized as: (1) Strategic tasks, (2) Tactical tasks, and (3) Operational tasks

  12. What is Logistics Transportation? Sample logistics transportation tasks: 2. Load Planning is arranging the shipments within the truck to minimize handling. For example, one might organize on a first-off last-loaded model. 3. Truck Servicing assures that the truck is fueled and otherwise properly prepared for the trip. 4. Movement is the physical movement of the truck along the planned route. 5. Delivery puts the product in the buyers hands. This would require, in the case of this LCD television, a signature (delivery receipt) from the buyer. 1. Route Planning establishes the route the truck will take to make its deliveries. The trade-off is one of time and expense against commitments to the customer.

  13. Layers of Logistics Transportation • Transportation consists of many layers. • Transportation managers find the best ways to align the strength and weakness of these various layers to provide high quality, low cost service to the customers.

  14. Cost of Logistics Transportation • Transportation is but one of the components of cost that needs to be considered in providing the level of service desired by the customer at a price the customer is willing to pay. • It is highly related with other components.

  15. Cost of Logistics Transportation • One should not, therefore, think that the decision as to which transportation mode to use is simply based on transportation costs alone. It is more complex than that.

  16. Transportation Modes • Five Major Modes of Transportation • The reason for different modes is related to the commodities to be transported, the distances to be covered, the capacity (Wt, Vol.) required, the speed required, and the geography that intervenes in the transportation.

  17. Modal Comparison • Students’ Project Idea: Tell them to identify 10 characteristics of each mode.
