The $960 billion (domestic) logistics market includes numerous inter-related business functions. Chief among them are the external logistics functions of inbound and outbound freight transportation, and the internal logistics function of movement, storage, and handling of raw materials, works in progress, and finished goods. The rapidly rising importance of efficient and well-managed distribution center operations has been a naturally-occurring evolution as companies begin to realize that inventory that isn’t moving represents not only a substantial cost, but also a very real competitive disadvantage.
