Logistics Resources International is dedicated to logistics consulting, education, and research. We define logistics broadly as the flow of material and information between consumers and suppliers. In our definition of logistics we include the interdependent processes of customer service and order processing, inventory planning and management, supply, transportation and distribution, and warehousing.

In customer service and order processing we include customer service policy design, order entry, order processing, status communication, invoicing, etc. In inventory planning and management we include forecasting, fill rate policy design, order quantity engineering, replenishment design, and deployment. In supply we include supply chain integration, supplier relationships, procurement, and manufacturing engineering. In transportation and distribution we include logistics network design, routing and scheduling, shipment planning and tracking, mode selection, and carrier selection. In warehousing we include cross docking, receiving and putaway, storage and handling systems, order picking, shipping, and layout.

Our logistics planning methodology addresses in turn performance measures and goals, process design, information systems and infrastructure, and organization design.
