Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, grade: 1, Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh (School of Management and Languages), language: English, abstract: When logistics is debated in general public, people mostly consider trucks, truck-drivers and noise. These aspects certainly belong to the broad business area related to logistics and nowadays Supply Chain Management (SCM). However it is easy to say that logistics and SCM contain a lot more than this. Critically evaluating the development of SCM over the last 30 years is the purpose of this essay. Doing so it is meant to involve a description of the development from physical distribution, via logistics to SCM, a confrontation of logistics and SCM and an explanation why supply chain managers are now part of the senior management group.
