In preparation for your overall logistics White Paper
Recommendation to the CEO, she has asked you to give her a “taste” of the
different kinds of logistic systems and decisions that different industries
use. You decide to prepare a PowerPoint presentation comparing and contrasting
the logistics systems that are commonly used in the following 3 industries
(include each of these in your presentation):

Describe the steps
in making sure that flights take off on time for an airline. Describe the
different steps that must occur for an on-time plane departure. For example,
how does the airline make sure that the plane is properly fueled on a timely
basis?
Describe the logistics
system that overnight small package delivery companies use to ensure that
timely delivery of undamaged packages occurs on a consistent basis. Discuss how
packages are scheduled for pick-up and are picked up, tracked, and transported
to the final destination, along with any other key activities.
Describe the
logistics steps that large mass merchandiser global supply chains use to ensure
timely availability of inventory for routine and sales merchandise needs. This
discussion must begin with the transportation from the foreign factory to its
nearby port, and continue from there until it arrives at the mass
merchandiser’s regional warehouses.
