1 E-Logistics Successes and Failures Copyright April 2002 H. Donald Ratliff H. Donald Ratliff 1 Executive Director Regents & UPS Professor don.ratliff@isye.gatech.edu President & CEO don.ratliff@velant.com
2 INFORMS The Successes and Failures of E-Logistics H. Donald Ratliff Regents & UPS Professor of Industrial & Systems Engineering; Executive Director of the Logistics Institute Georgia Institute of Technology President and CEO, Velant, Inc. The Internet is revolutionizing the process and economics of logistics. Twenty years ago, the personal computer launched a new generation of logistics technology based primarily on a decentralized planning model. It empowered sophisticated users to make better decisions by giving them flexible modeling capability, a graphical interface and a moderate amount of computing power. Client-server computers added an element of connectivity that allowed automation of internal company transactions but did little to change decision technology or interactions between companies. E-logistics--the next generation of logistics technology--will be based on a centralized computing model driven by networked computing. In this session, Ratliff will discuss the evolution of this new model, the successes and failures to date, and the technical and operational issues that must be overcome. 2

13 Design Difficulties Origin to destination TL LTL Multi-stop route Origin to cross-dock TL LTL Multi-stop route Cross-dock to destination TL LTL Multi-stop route Routing is difficult Static Dynamic Supply chain design models don t work!!! Cost are very nonlinear Flows are dependent Volume is critical Origins Destinations 13 Technology Inadequate!!! Cross-docks

18 Mode Optimization Versus Fleet Copyright April 2002 H. Donald Ratliff Optimization Mode optimization Create routes from LTL shipments Tender routes only if less cost than LTL Lane based costs Involves an external transaction Fleet optimization All shipments must be taken Cost based on dedicated truck Driver Equipment No external transaction 18 Commercial Carrier Dedicated Fleet
19 Current Technology Map-on-the-wall Map-on-the-computer 19 Visual algorithms Requires smart planner Poor quality Greedy algorithms Requires super-user Marginal quality
