“Perspectives on Logistics vs. SCM: A Survey of SCM Professionals”

July 21, 2007 · 1 Comment

Here is a recent paper that may be of interest for managers that are considering the transition of logistics into supply chain management:

“Perspectives on Logistics vs. SCM: A Survey of SCM Professionals” by Paul D. Larson, Richard F. Poist and Árni Halldórsson, Journal of Business Logistics, 2007, JBL Vol 28 No 1.

This paper reports the results of a survey of senior-level CSCMP members about perspectives on logistics vs. supply chain management. Executives seem to prefer a broad, multiple function perspective on SCM, implication of which is that the process of implementation can be both difficult, expensive and slow.
