Supply chain risk management: a logistics perspective.

Bredell, Riaan Daniel 17 June 2008 (has links)
Globalisering het die wêreldekonomie onomkeerbaar verander. Globalisering is onder andere moontlik gemaak deur die snelle tegnologiese vooruitgang en die verstewiging van handelsbande oor landsgrense heen. Dit het tot groter mededinging gelei en organisasies aan nuwe uitdagings en onsekerhede blootgestel. Die unieke aard van die nuwe ekonomie het organisasies verplig om hul tradisionele besigheidsmodelle aan te pas. Dit is nou moontlik om grondstowwe van bykans enige plek ter wêreld te bekom, om produkte naby buitelandse markte te vervaardig of waar die arbeidskoste die laagste is, om produkte vanaf optimale punte te versprei en om produkte bykans enige plek ter wêreld te bemark. Die geleenthede soos hierbo uiteengesit, het die klem opnuut laat verskuif na die belangrikheid van die voorsieningskanaal in organisasies. Die voorsieningskanaal is vandag die kern van die besigheidsmodel van menige organisasie en sluit verskeie eksterne partye van ’n organisasie in, soos byvoorbeeld verskaffers van grondstowwe en vervoerdienste. Dit is vandag van uiterste belang dat die ketting as ’n eenheid optimaal funksioneer, aangesien dit algemene praktyk is dat voorsieningskanale teen mekaar meeding om produkte so vinnig en goedkoop as moontlik aan die verbruiker te lewer. Voorsieningskanale is inderdaad van strategiese belang vir organisasies. Die prestasie van voorsieningskanale het ’n direkte impak op winsgewendheid en is dus ook bepalend in die skepping van aandeelhouerswaarde. Die moderne voorsieningskanaal is egter weens verskeie faktore, soos die betrokkenheid van derde partye, kulturele verskille en die lengte van sekere voorsieningskanale, ‘n onsekere omgewing. Dit is van uiterste belang dat organisasies hierdie onsekerhede of risiko’s na behore bestuur ten einde te verseker dat die prestasie van hul voorsieningskanale aan die verwagtinge voldoen. Hierdie studie het hoofsaaklik ten doel gehad om ’n optimale struktuur vir die bestuur van voorsieningskanaalrisiko’s asook ’n geïntegreerde benadering vir die effektiewe bestuur van die risiko’s daar te stel. Voorts was dit die oogmerk om die benadering in ’n werklike voorsieningskanaalomgewing deur middel van ’n gevallestudie toe te pas. Die voorgestelde benadering tot risikobestuur in die voorsieningskanaal is ’n ten volle geïntegreerde benadering wat alle komponente van die voorsieningskanaal insluit. Dit sluit dus alle eksterne partye van die organisasie in, soos byvoorbeeld verskaffers van logistieke dienste, asook alle relevante ondernemingsfunksies, soos byvoorbeeld aankope, bemarking en finansies. Voorts is dit ‘n gestruktureerde benadering wat op strategiese, taktiese en bedryfsvlakke in die voorsieningskanaal toegepas kan word. Indien dit behoorlik geïmplementeer en toegepas word, kan dit byvoorbeeld onderbrekings in die voorsieningskanaal voorkom of ten minste die potensiële impak van onderbrekings verminder. Dit het heelwat ander voordele, byvoorbeeld verbeterde besluitneming en sakeprestasie. Enige organisasie kan hierdie benadering implementeer. Dit is egter makliker om dit te implementeer in organisasies wat alreeds gevestigde risikobestuurstrukture het. ’n Deeglik beplande implementeringstrategie is ’n voorvereiste vir die suksesvolle implementering van die benadering. Risikopersepsie is ’n wesenlike aspek wat in ag geneem moet word tydens die implementering en die toepassing van die benadering. Persepsies van risiko en risikobestuur word deur verskeie faktore beïnvloed, byvoorbeeld die opleiding en ondervinding van individue asook die organisasiekultuur. Die uitkomste van risikostudies kan byvoorbeeld benadeel word indien risikopersepsies nie na behore bestuur word nie. / Prof. J. Walters

Competitive strategies for firms in the global digital economy

Barendse, James 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (Mcomm)--Stellenbosch University, 2000. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Technology has become one of the most important factors in the business world today. Information technology is playing an ever-increasing role in all areas of business. Logistics is no exception, and is one of the areas most affected by technological change. Many firms need to adapt technologically, or they might face extinction. This study aims to make firms aware of the power of information technology and the benefits it holds for those who use it. It tries to inform firms about the various uses and applications that exist and how they can improve business processes. It sets guidelines for the implementation of information technology and allows the firm to make an informed choice. It also discusses the growing role that the Internet is playing in logistics and the business world as a whole. Tips for the implementation of an electronic commerce system are also given, and the effects of electronic commerce on logistics are discussed. The firms can use the information to plan their strategies more effectively and hopefully find success in the global digital economy. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Tegnologie is een van die belangrikste faktore in vandag se sakewêreld. Informasietegnologie speel 'n al groter rol in alle sakegebiede. Logistiek is daarby ingesluit, en is een van die areas wat die meeste deur tegnologiese verandering geaffekteer word. Sakeondernemings moet toenemend aanpas by die nuwe tegnologie om te kan voortbestaan. Die fokus van hierdie werkstuk is om firmas bewus te maak van die voordele wat informasietegnologie inhou en hoe ondernemeings daarby kan baat. Daar word gepoog om firmas bewus te maak van die wye verskeidenheid tegnologiese produkte wat bestaan, en hoe hulle aangewend kan word om besigheidsprosesse te verbeter. Daar word riglyne vasgestel wat firmas die geleentheid bied om tegnologie doeltreffend in te span en om 'n ingeligte keuse te kan maak. Die rol wat die Internet in logistiek en die sakewêreld speel word ook bespreek, asook die effek wat elektroniese handelop logistiek het. Riglyne word ook verskaf oor die implementering van 'n stelsel wat elektroniese handel moontlik sal maak. Die inligting wat verskaf word kan firmas help om hulle strategieë doeltreffend te beplan en om sodoende sukses te behaal in die globale digitale ekonomie.

The port of Maputo as an alternative supply chain gateway in Southern Africa

Greeff, Jacques, Venter, Carli 27 August 2015 (has links)
M.Phil. / Successfully establishing an organisational service delivery footprint in Africa is a challenge that faces many South-Africa-based companies. Africa is a large continent, containing numerous countries, dialects and cultures. Each country presents its own set of unique opportunities and threats, and therefore a focused approach is required to develop a plan for organisations to not only grow into new markets and to service new clients, but also to expand service-rendering capability among its current clients by providing services from the product source to their end destination in Africa. It is therefore the purpose of this research project to focus on Mozambique and the Port of Maputo, with a detailed consideration of the strategic value that the Port of Maputo presents to organisations on the basis of its geographic location and proximity to product sources, both within Mozambique and its neighbouring countries ...

Improving supply chain competitiveness through the application of technology : a case study on a routing and scheduling system

Hollander, Ryan 25 October 2010 (has links)
M.Comm. / In the last hundred years there has been a technological revolution that has forced people to change the way they live and run their organisations. This technological revolution has had a major impact on the business world. Coyle, Bardi and Langley (2003; 57) have suggested that “the rate of change has accelerated with consequent negative impacts if organisations do not change.” With today’s emphasis on cutting costs, streamlining expenses while at the same time trying to offer a competitive edge with regard to customer service, many organisations are looking to improve their bottom line and financial performance by implementing new technology into their supply chains. A popular way for organisations to speedily reap the benefits of having a more competent and competitive, technology-enabled supply chain, is by outsourcing their supply chain needs to a third party logistics organisations. The Star newspaper reported that, according to Brett Bowes, inefficiencies in the supply chain meant that fast-moving consumer goods manufacturers and retailers were losing R7 billion every year (The Star, 16 March 2007; 2). Although there are many auxiliary benefits and advantages of implementing software systems into the supply chain, the two critical benefits which justify the expense are reduced costs and improved customer service. Implementing technology is a costly, challenging and sometimes risky endeavor. This often results in an unwillingness to change until these organisations outgrow their systems, or the business environment becomes so complex, that they are forced to implement new technology. This hesitancy to introduce new technology timeously could hamper the progress and growth of these organisations, and could also affect their competitiveness in a highly competitive environment. The purpose of this case study is to compare the benefits achieved from existing older technology to new technology, based on a routing and scheduling case study in a large 3PL organisation.
