Introduction
MBA Logistics and supply chain 
management support customer needs and 
improve the buying experience. Logistics 
provides direct feedback on customer 
demand, and the supply chain analyzes 
customer wants and plans production levels 
accordingly. Reliable and cost-effective 
logistics pave the way for the efficient 
supply chain management. 
Understanding the 
difference between 
Logistics and Supply Chain
Businesses see logistics as a critical 
blueprint of the supply chain and use it 
to manage, coordinate, and monitor 
resources needed to move products in a 
timely, cost-effective, and reliable 
manner. Logistics aligns the complex 
pattern of transportation, import and 
export operations.
Processing the order
An effective order processing system is 
the essential requirement for any 
delivery processing or transportation 
activities that eventually follow a kick-
start if the order processing system is 
fast and effective.
Managing the 
inventory
Inventory refers to the warehouse’s stock 
of all finished goods. It is another vital 
logistics function, meaning data-driven 
planning needs to be carefully planned and 
stocked. In addition, companies use 
inventory management software and 
formulas to anticipate demand.
Material handling
This implies storing, securing, and 
transferring goods throughout the 
manufacturing, distribution, and delivery 
processes. Logistics companies must 
store and protect the materials 
throughout production, warehousing, 
and distribution.
Managing the warehouse
An extension of various inventory activities; at this level, 
all the handling, packaging, and shipping are taken care 
of. It is similar to inventory in that both require 
sophisticated tools and technologies that result in 
reduced costs and increased productivity.
