NewsLet's imagine. Future, some owners need to own a container textiles from Beijing to Washington, dc, the shipper as long as the uniform across the country and the world's logistics information platform released the news above, logistics information platform automatically through the vast and intelligent optimization system for the business need allocate resources in a reasonable manner to generate accurate multimodal transport solutions (including customs declaration, inspection declaration, comprehensive one-stop services, supply chain finance, etc), and then began to move goods process, this process is visible all the way, mainly by the transport vehicle above on the GPS/GIS, every few seconds to the nearest is realized by sending an address pulse communication station, the owner can sit in the office blowing air conditioning, drinking coffee, and other goods to collect money only... < / p > < p class = "newtext" > human has been no lack of imagination, nor the lack of execution. < / p > < p class = "newtext" > the seemingly impossible dream, humans have been toward this direction diligently. Consider this process, is inseparable from the logistics informationization of six. < / p > < p class = "newtext" > standardization: refers to the standardization of the entire logistics system. Hardware standardization, that is, in all kinds of logistics industry gathering above widely as a theme to discuss the standardization of container, pallet, etc, the standardization of the hardware is indeed for the development of the logistics supply chain industry has played a huge role, but the standardization of hardware is not enough, also need the standardization of logistics operation and process, the realization of this, the difficulty is large. One day visit to the Shanghai a logistics base, in the warehouse of the farmer mountain spring we see the uniformity of the tray and the full force of plastic packaging of mineral water drinks, standard warehouse and according to the flow of goods, such as to east China, central China, south China, north China set by the outbound, forklift truck hauling goods according to inherent flow; However, not all of the warehouse or logistics company are standardized operation, catch sight of: in a warehouse before several strong porters, shoulder shoulder the entire bag to put not very neatly put truck, natural grain is the ground. From here, the logistics industry can be seen the good and bad are intermingled. < / p > < p class = "newtext" > optimization: refers to the optimization of logistics supply chain system, in the interests of dominated by the main supply chain, sharing chain enterprises to gain more interest, need to optimize the supply chain each link, a transportation optimization examples: everyone knows the current logistics companies are divided into two kinds: one kind is to own the means of transport. Such as JBHunt, UPS, Federal Express, Schneider, etc. Their transport is varied, in addition to large trucks, shipping, aviation, and railways. The second company is 4 pl company. This company to consulting, software development mainly. And a logistics company is a comprehensive, such as WalMart. WalMart has over two thousand trucks in itself. They also have their own logistics management department. At the same time, they still rely mainly on other transport companies, such as SWIFT to the completion of the interstate transport of goods. If JBHunt in WalMart and sign a contract when the solution is to use the listed to complete 15 truck transport. The whole contract price basically is based on 15 truck freight. If JBHunt can by assembling optimization and scheduling between areas to make 12 truck transportation task will be finished, then its profit margins will increase a lot. The content of the logistics supply chain optimization, of course, contain much more complicated than this. < / p > < p class = "newtext" > fine: refinement is the life of the information, as the development of China's manufacturing sector, after "have now if not tomorrow" predatory development, extensive economy makes the manufacturing industry in China has experienced the rise in raw material and labor costs, land prices, the appreciation of the renminbi after impact mass failure. Compared to Japan, at the beginning of the last century began the research and accumulation of fine production, the Toyota production mode of TPS has become the world manufacturing imitations and learning objects. Made in China need refinement, likewise, informationization also needs refinement. < / p > < p class = "newtext" > quantitative: if the introduction of information technology, can make clear the management of the enterprise operation process of each stage, even the costs of each customer and obtain benefits, you can according to these quantitative data to adjust profit structure, small customer, but the profit on the cost per unit is high; Big customer, but overall cost than the customer get less, and so on, can be clearly demonstrated in front of decision makers, from this point, it can be seen that quantify, and is a high granularity of quantization is very important for the enterprise. < / p > < p class = "newtext" > intelligent: in the future, the global information will lead to a revolution in the intelligence, the development of the Internet of things also cannot leave the intellectualization, the future will also be intelligent society. < / p > < p class = "newtext" > integration: the so-called integration is the integration of logistics supply chain information platform, platform integration, need is the informationization construction of basic data in the early years of the standardization and unification. Is like lego blocks, pass the objects of different functions together to form a car, or a ship, and so on. Basic data for information, if the bottom is unified, a modular TMS system plus a WMS system after the formation of a naturally integrated logistics information platform, coupled with the financial management, production management, CRM, SRM, HR has formed a complete set of, such as seven by six pulse through information technology platform, this is the meaning of such integration.
