What advancement in telecommunications technology do you think is most important to the

management of logistics? Why?

I do think that the most essential advancement as of now in telecommunication

technology is the internet to the management of logistics, because you can easily access to
your customers and other businesses. Internet makes the transaction go fast, reduces the cost
of purchases by giving supply-chain partners quick access to information about sources,
availability, pricing and technical data. Members of the supply chain must cooperate in
making this information available online, possibly in secure folders only accessible to
account holders who are supply-chain partners. Once information required to make a
purchase is available online from several sources, procurement is more efficient because the
best source can be identified more quickly. While the actual prices paid do not necessarily
diminish, the cost of the procurement transactions is lower.
