    This document discusses logistics information systems (LIS). It defines LIS as a structure of people, equipment, and procedures that makes relevant information available to logistics managers for planning, implementation, and control. Data is collected, transmitted, processed, stored and retrieved as needed and analyzed to prepare output reports for top management decision making. The key components of an integrated LIS are order processing systems, research and intelligence systems, and decision support systems connected to reports and output systems. New applications of LIS include EDI, GIS, GPS tracking, bar coding, and decision support systems.

    CHAPTER 13 LOGISTICS INFORMATION SYSTEM

    Prof. Chaitali Chandarana

    MIS (Management Information System)


    It

    assists in making crucial decisions for the organisations must guard against usual, natural & delibrate errors which are likely to occur in collection, transmission, reception & processing of information.

    Elements of MIS
    Sources

    Collection
    Storage Retrieval Reports

    of Information

    LIS (Logistics Information System)


    Data

    is collected, Transmitted, processed, stored & retrieved as & when required, analyzed, processed for preparing output report & submitted to top management for decision making. Def: An interacting structure of people, equipment & procedures which together make relevant information available to the logistics manager for the purpose of planning, implementation & control.

    Features of LIS
    Shared

    Database & networks Multi Plant and Multi Distribution Centre Management Reporting Customers & Suppliers Database

    Advantages of LIS
    Low

    Inventory Carrying cost More Efficient Replenishment More accurate forecast & on Time Delivery Fewer documentation Ability for better planning and control

    DISADVANTAGES of LIS
