Logistics Profile: Applebee’s…
Restaurant ordering practice has progressed from phone to fax to Internet.
Information systems (IS) help Applebee’s to monitor pre-negotiated prices and rebates, and to better manage inventory tracking.
Internet-enabled information systems have great potential to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of supply chain activity.

Logistics and Supply Chain Information Systems: Introduction
Many firms view effective management of logistics and supply chain activities as: Prerequisites to overall cost efficiency, and Keys to ensuring their ability to
competitively price their products and services.1
Effective information management also can help ensure that a firm meets the logistics needs of its customers.

Contemporary Issues in Information Systems
Results from Annual Computer Sciences Corporation Study on Information Systems Management suggest that highest priorities are on customers, productivity, and performance. It is clear that Internet and E-commerce
issues are both recognizable and critical. Top technology issues are reviewed in
Tables 12-1 and 12-2.

Contemporary Issues in Information Systems
Quality of Information: Three major issues1. Availability of Information
Managers may be uncertain of needs. Supplied data not consistent with needs.
2. Accuracy of Information Three strikes and you’re out policy. Accounting practices must accommodate
logistics needs.3. Effectiveness of Communication

Positioning Information in Logistics Figure 12-2 illustrates logistics information
flow. Logistics Information Systems include
coordination flows and operational flows These two flows should:
freely interchange data integrate coordination activities into
operational activities be flexible, not linear.

Adapting to New Information Technologies Relevant issues in the search for new
technologies Firms must have a scientific and intuitive
knowledge of customer and supplier information requirements.
Lack of coordination and integration among key logistics and supply chain processes.
See that logistics organizational strategies move from a functional to a process orientation.
Early implementation efforts may suffer due to poor data or the non-availability or non-sharing of future data.

Adapting to New Information Technologies
Relevant issues in the search for new technologies The organization must have the financial
resources needed to assure a smooth, full implementation, and the people willing to accept and use new technologies.
Firms must create opportunities for interaction and team efforts among logistics managers and those others most knowledgeable about information technologies.
