逆向物流体系的管理价值

Managing Value in Reverse Logistics Systems

文章以国内12家手工制造业工厂的废铁逆向物流体系为研究背景,审视在逆向物流系统中采购和其他一些职能,评估各部门的贡献与作用。采购在工厂的逆向物流管理活动中起着非常重要的作用。在工厂的逆向物流管理体系里,交易量明显影响到决策和进程。目前共计有6种废铁回收管理办法被广泛认同。讨论了一些使用案例的影响,重点强调每一种策略存在的差异。

This research concerns the reverse logistics systems in ferrous scrap of 12 domestic manufacturing plants. It exam-ines the role of purchasing and other functions in the reverse logistics system, and assesses the contribution made by the various departments. Purchasing played a significant role in managing reverse logistics activities at the plants in the study. Volume was found to significantly influence strategies and processes used by plants in their reverse logistics systems. A total of six volume-based approaches for managing ferrous scrap reverse networks are identified. The implications of each are discussed using case studies to highlight differences among the strategies.
