I believe ‘Logistics and Supply Chain Management (SCM)’ is an evergreen industry worldwide. Neither Covid-19 nor AI revolution could outplay the industry. That’s the power of logistics and SCM. Logistics is nothing more than importing and exporting goods worldwide or in a small territory. However, this can be a complex and challenging process without proper plans and strategies. Strategies are a framework that keeps operating plans on track, ensuring a planned goal is achieved. They directly address the stakeholder’s concerns and expectations.
It’s no secret that small business operations can be fast-paced. You may be understaffed and overworked. In particular, the timely replenishment of products is essential to keep customers happy, ensure smooth workflow, and maximise profitability. Many small businesses keep a manual inventory log, but this can make your inventory system prone to human error. Manual stock counting and reordering is also a tedious task. This doesn’t make efficient use of your or your employee’s time and cuts back on the time that could be spent doing more advanced, important business operations.
Industries such as oil & gas, food & beverage, chemical, and agriculture require goods to be transported by tankers. Commonly, these vehicles carry granular or liquid goods like fuel, flour, sugar, or plastics. These types of goods require specialised procedures to unload and load their goods. When a tanker has reached its destination, it enters the unloading/ loading area of a facility where hoses and or pumps are connected to the tank to unload or load the goods. It is common that tanker personnel will need to gain access to the top of the tank to allow for ventilation or attach hoses/pumps to begin the loading/unloading process. Many facilities have permanent or semi-permanent elevated loading platforms or gangway systems that allow authorised tanker personnel to access the top of the tanks safely.
