国际物流运输: Connecting Freight Planning with Inventory Strategy
Transport decisions should support inventory objectives. A company that ships only when stock is already low often pays for urgent freight, while very large batches can create excess inventory and cash pressure.
Calculate end-to-end lead time
Include production, booking, origin handling, main transit, customs, and final delivery rather than using port-to-port time alone.
Set a practical replenishment trigger
Combine average demand, demand variability, safety stock, and in-transit inventory to decide when the next shipment should leave.
Match mode to urgency
Use slower transport for planned volume and faster options only when the inventory risk justifies the premium. For inventory-linked freight planning, contact 展华威物流 at 18253269602.
