Description

Reverse logistics has become a process within supply chain management receiving increased focus as a result of: amplified consumer demand; pressure from environmental groups; the desire to create closed loop supply chain systems; political motivations; and, legislation. It is important when designing supply chains to view and analyse from a closed loop perspective. We operate in an increasingly global market with product and services being sourced internationally, all of which adds further complexity when considering from a reverse logistics and closed loop supply chain perspective. Increasingly, reverse logistics is becoming a differentiator when determining competitive advantage between like companies within an industry. This unit offers an in depth examination of concepts pertaining to reverse logistics and closed loop supply chain management then demonstrates how together they contribute toward building a strategically effective and operationally efficient organisation.
