How logistics clusters can create jobs while providing companies with competitive advantage. Why is Memphis home to hundreds of motor carrier terminals and distribution centers? Why does the tiny island-nation of Singapore handle a fifth of the world's maritime containers and half the world's annual supply of crude oil? Which jobs can replace lost manufacturing jobs in advanced economies? Some of the answers to these questions are rooted in the phenomenon of logistics clusters—geographically concentrated sets of logistics-related business activities. In this book, supply chain management expert Yossi Sheffi explains why Memphis, Singapore, Chicago, Rotterdam, Los Angeles, and scores of other locations have been successful in developing such clusters while others have not. Sheffi outlines the characteristic “positive feedback loop” of logistics clusters development and what differentiates them from other industrial clusters; how logistics clusters “add value” by generating other industrial activities; why firms should locate their distribution and value-added activities in logistics clusters; and the proper role of government support, in the form of investment, regulation, and trade policy. Sheffi also argues for the most important advantage offered by logistics clusters in today's recession-plagued economy: jobs, many of them open to low-skilled workers, that are concentrated locally and not “offshorable.” These logistics clusters offer what is rare in today's economy: authentic success stories. For this reason, numerous regional and central governments as well as scores of real estate developers are investing in the development of such clusters.

This remarkable volume highlights the importance of Production and Operations Management (POM) as a field of study and research contributing to substantial business and social growth. The editors emphasize how POM works with a range of systems—agriculture, disaster management, e-commerce, healthcare, hospitality, military systems, not-for-profit, retail, sports, sustainability, telecommunications, and transport—and how it contributes to the growth of each. Martin K. Starr and Sushil K. Gupta gather an international team of experts to provide researchers and students with a panoramic vision of the field. Divided into eight parts, the book presents the history of POM, and establishes the foundation upon which POM has been built while also revisiting and revitalizing topics that have long been essential. It examines the significance of processes and projects to the fundamental growth of the POM field. Critical emerging themes and new research are examined with open minds and this is followed by opportunities to interface with other business functions. Finally, the next era is discussed in ways that combine practical skill with philosophy in its analysis of POM, including traditional and nontraditional applications, before concluding with the editors’ thoughts on the future of the discipline. Students of POM will find this a comprehensive, definitive resource on the state of the discipline and its future directions.

"La logística se ha convertido en parte esencial de la competencia y la economía global moderna. El libro de Yossi Sheffi brinda una fascinante descripción del poder de los clústeres en los servicios y la evolución de los clústeres logísticos en todo el mundo. Este interesante libro muestra cómo los clústeres se están volviendo cada vez más importantes en la economía global, y no menos, desafiando las predicciones del fin de la geografía" (Michael E. Porter, profesor Bishop William Lawrence). "¿Por qué la pequeña isla / nación de Singapur maneja una quinta parte de los contenedores marítimos del mundo y la mitad del suministro anual de petróleo crudo del mundo? ¿Que los trabajos en logística pueden sustituir a empleos industriales perdidos en las economías avanzadas?". Algunas de las respuestas a estas preguntas tienen su origen en el fenómeno de los módulos de logística – conjuntos geográficamente concentrados de logística relacionados con las actividades empresariales-. En este libro, el experto en gestión de la cadena de suministro Yossi Sheffi, explica por qué Memphis , Singapur, Chicago, Rotterdam, Los Ángeles, y decenas de otros lugares han tenido éxito en el desarrollo de estas agrupaciones, mientras que otros no lo tienen. Sheffi describe la característica "bucle de retroalimentación positiva" del desarrollo de módulos de logística y lo que los diferencia de otros grupos industriales. Cómo los módulos de logística "añaden valor " mediante la generación de otras actividades industriales , ¿por qué las empresas deben localizar su distribución y actividades de valor agregado en los módulos de logística?; y el papel apropiado de apoyo del gobierno, en la forma de inversión , la regulación y la política comercial. Sheffi también argumenta a favor de la ventaja más importante que ofrecen los módulos de logística en economías recesivas como las actuales: puestos de trabajo, muchos de ellos abiertos a los trabajadores poco calificados, que se concentran en forma local y no " offshorable". Estos módulos de logística ofrecen auténticas historias de éxito poco común en la economía actual. Por más que muchos no lo conozcan, Yossi Sheffi ha promovido la causa de la logística como una disciplina académica. A menudo la palabra se debe a él por su visión única sobre cómo se cruza la logística del mundo de la tecnología, la política pública, el comercio mundial, y otros temas macro. En su libro, nos da cuenta de que las oportunidades surgen y los modelos de negocio cambian debido a las ventajas temporales que vienen de la cercanía y el acceso al transporte aéreo y las conexiones durante la noche a casi cualquier lugar en el mundo.

This volume of three books presents recent advances in modelling, planning and evaluating city logistics for sustainable and liveable cities based on the application of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) and ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems). It highlights modelling the behaviour of stakeholders who are involved in city logistics as well as planning and managing policy measures of city logistics including cooperative freight transport systems in public-private partnerships. Case studies of implementing and evaluating city logistics measures in terms of economic, social and environmental benefits from major cities around the world are also given.

Globalization of the economy, fragmentation of the production process, increasing externalization of TNCs activities through their global value chains and the widespread adoption of Just-in-Time have increased the flows of raw materials, intermediate goods and finished products, with a direct effect on the transport and logistics industry. This industry, indeed, plays a key role in connecting the different import and export markets and the vertically disaggregated components of production system, which are widespread in the world. The existing literature on transport and logistics is mainly focused on engineering research, transportation economics and management studies, disregarding the view of regional economics, which relates with the impact of economics on space, and therefore, on the impact of internationalisation on a specific industry – transport and logistics and its effects on space. The present book aims to fill the gap in the existing literature by presenting the state of the art of the impact of globalisation and internationalisation of the economy on this industry and focusing on the case of Italy.

The phenomenon of globalization has increased in recent decades due to the opening of borders in Eastern Europe and the sudden emergence of other countries in the global trade economy. Yet, the process of becoming global to get access to growing markets or to achieve quality, service, and/or cost advantages from the reconfigured Value Chains is one
