Course contents:
The lectures treat the importance of logistics to a company´s competitiveness, by combining a good delivery service with low costs. Relevant basics in economics are repeated. The different parts of the logistics system is described and discussed. Different tools and models that are used in the case are introduced. The aim of the case is to map and analyse a fictive company´s materials flow, to suggest changes and to discuss the consequenses they will lead to. The solutions require mathematical calculations (with Excel)as well as reflecting discussions. The different exercises in the case are presented in written reports and are discussed on the seminars during the course.
