Lean Logistics services identify and eliminate any wasteful activity that may be present in the supply chain. This then enables organizations to increase the productivity flow of their business. Leaner logistics can only be achieved by implementing leaner thinking. Through Lean Logistics’ thinking, organizationsgain valuable benefits such as improved customer service, overall corporate citizenship and a decrease in adverse environmental impact through the reduction of waste.  Lean logistics means constantly pursuing a cycle aimed at excellence through the elimination of waste and maximization of product value. This helps ensure that customers do not end up paying for any waste or inefficiency on part of the organization.



Lean Logistics specifies value by first identifying it andthen adding it along the supply chain network. Lean Logistics then maps out the value stream. This is achieved through the identification of all processes along the supply chain network that do not increase the value of the product. These processes are then eliminated. The next step is creating a product flow; customer pull is established by manufacturing only in response to the need of the customer. It is these processes undertaken by Lean Logistics that help ensure perfection of business performance resulting in a distinct competitive advantage. It is this very competitive advantage that businesses need in order to generate profits.
