Logistics Internship Diary

I have been in the graduate internship for half a year. In the logistics work I have been engaged in, many of them are very different from the theory. If the logistics industry really meets the requirements of books, it will take a long time.

First of all, in the field of logistics, the companies that truly claim to be professional are very poor. Most of them are transported before. There are several cars in their own homes, but the name is a certain logistics company. The leaders with logistics concepts are few. The development of stamina is insufficient, the level can not be improved, and the efficiency is not high. For the leadership of these enterprises, most of them used to be transported. Later, they bought a few cars, set up a separate logistics company, recruited a few drivers, and then invited several porters. This is a very common logistics company in the real world. And now the logistics graduates come to work in these units, many of them are arranged in the porters, escorts and other jobs. I am not saying that college students do these What's the job, I just said that the work of porters, escorts, etc. has to be done by college students. It is a surplus of talents, or the level of the company is too high. I think the insider knows it --- --- The key is that the leadership's logistics awareness is not strong, and does not pay attention to the role of logistics talents. Of course, this is only for most logistics companies, but there are still a small number of enterprises doing a good job in the logistics industry, Such as China Railway, COSCO, Baosu, Yuancheng, etc. More familiar Wuhu Andhra Logistics Co., because I worked in it, its more familiar mode of operation.

Wuhu Ande Logistics Co., Ltd. ranks 17th in China's logistics, and has branch offices and outlets throughout the country. It develops fourth-party logistics in this third-party logistics company. How does it operate fourth-party logistics? I am very clear, fourth-party logistics, to put it bluntly, is the resource integrator in the field of logistics. Wuhu Ande Logistics Co., Ltd. has done a very good job in this respect, the vehicles it mobilizes, the warehouses used. It is someone else's, but only spends money to rent first, but they have a very important resource----source. Many manufacturers need logistics services, Ande Logistics seeks to cooperate with them, and set up a separate logistics service network. Its service is like one-to-one service. Most of the outlets are around 3 people, several computers, several telephones, and the vehicles are concentrated by the dispatching center of the provincial branch, and the vehicles being transferred are controlled by another vehicle. Information resources are provided by the company. This is also a resource integration process. Most of the vehicles we mobilize are cash on delivery, and then Ande Logistics takes the return receipts brought back by the driver and the manufacturer to settle, among which, There are two kinds of prices, one is the price settled by Ande Logistics and the driver, the other is the price settled by the manufacturer and the logistics of Ande. Of course, the latter is much higher. The logistics that Ande Logistics earns is the difference between them. The operation mode has achieved great success in China, the development momentum is very good, the business is expanding continuously, and the number of outlets is increasing. It is a leader in the logistics industry.

However, even if it is truly a more specialized enterprise, there are still many defects, such as cost control, transportation efficiency, etc. For cost control, for Handan Logistics, it is mainly to lower the freight rate of the driver, rather than by selecting Reasonable transportation methods, or effective transportation routes to reduce freight rates, which easily provoke conflicts with drivers. Moreover, transportation efficiency is not ideal, idling rate is high, and routes are not taken seriously. The driver's route is usually a familiar route that he has walked through. Sometimes it takes several times to get on and off the high-speed line. In order to avoid the toll booth, it is not so simple to calculate with a few formulas.

The bottleneck of loading and unloading is particularly prominent in the field of logistics. At present, it is mainly manual operation, and the degree of mechanization is very low. In most logistics enterprises, manual operations are carried out, the cost is high, and the goods are vulnerable, especially in the railway. In loading and unloading, manual work is very common. The goods are thrown and thrown in the hands of the porters. The damage rate of the goods is conceivable. However, in some modern manufacturers, the efficiency of loading and unloading is relatively good. They all try to use forklifts for loading and unloading. However, manual work is inevitable. The more common way is that the scattered stacking operations require labor, such as in the car and production workshop, and the whole pallet loading and unloading is done with a forklift.

For the influencing factors of logistics efficiency, we have to talk about packaging, packaging is divided into industrial packaging and commercial packaging, industrial packaging is also called transportation packaging, here is the transportation packaging. Packaging standards or not, largely determines loading and unloading The efficiency of handling, many logistics packaging is not uniform, it is difficult to unify, such as clothing, building materials, etc., without uniform standard packaging, it is difficult to use machinery to carry out operations, imagine, several pieces of clothing on the pallet, with a forklift Loading and unloading can make it pile up several layers high? Building materials are even harder to say, which is an important reason why manual work has to be as common.
