Logistics and Transportation
Logistics and transportation in materials management refer to the planning and movement of goods and materials from one place to another. This involves coordinating how products are transported (by truck, ship, or plane), storing them in warehouses, and managing inventory to ensure they are available when needed. Effective logistics ensures that the right products reach the right locations at the right time, minimizing costs and delays. Ultimately, it plays a crucial role in supply chain management, helping businesses operate efficiently and meet customer demands.
