Transportation; Reverse logistics; In a warehouse, the manager will use KPIs that target best use of the facility, like the receiving and put away KPIs to measure the receiving efficiency and the putaway cost per line. Storage KPIs can also be used to determine the efficiency of the storage space and the carrying cost of the inventory. [11]
Hypothesis – to improve customer service and logistics confidence, key performance indicators, or KPIs, will eventually displace a railroad's operating ratio (OR) as the preferred management tool.
On time performance is a measure of the ability of transport services to be on time. Almost all formal transportation systems have timetables, which describe when vehicles are to arrive at scheduled stops. Transport services have a higher utility where services run on time, as anyone planning on making use of the service can align their ...
Transportation density can be defined as the payload per period, say passenger / day or tonne / day. This can be used as the measure of intensity of the transportation on a particular section or point of transportation infrastructure, say road or railway. This can be used in comparison with the construction, running costs of the infrastructure.
AI-enriched KPIs, or "smart KPIs," improve on legacy metrics that simply track performance, according to the authors, who identified three types of smart KPIs: descriptive, predictive, and ...
Transportation management systems manage four key processes of transportation management: Planning and decision making – TMS will define the most efficient transport schemes, according to the given parameters, which have a lower or higher importance of various factors according to the user policy: transport cost, shorter lead-time, fewer stops possible to ensure quality, flow's regrouping ...
In transportation engineering, the K factor is defined as the proportion of annual average daily traffic occurring in an hour. [1] This factor is used for designing and analyzing the flow of traffic on highways. K factors must be calculated at a continuous count station, usually an "automatic traffic recorder", for a year before being determined.
The Logistics Performance Index (LPI) [1] is a analysis tool created by the World Bank. [2] It is the combination of the weighted average of the country scores on six key dimensions: customs performance, infrastructure quality, ease of arranging shipments, logistics services quality, consignments tracking and tracing and timeliness of shipments as well as practical data measuring logistics ...
