Logistics concerns itself with matters as basic as plant location, sourcing of raw materials, and standards of customer service. In recent years, changes in the business environment have forced companies both large and small to pay particularly close attention to how this function relates to others. Logistics can spell the difference between success and failure in business. Logistics-oriented strategies are also important in large companies. hey all involve decisions that are long-term in their implications.

Others are willingly incurring the risks of speculation, involving the preparation of stocks in advance of need, in order to achieve economies of scale and lower the costs of production.
