Research On Manufacturing Enterprise Logistics Process Reengineering Based On Information Technology

This paper briefly discusses logistics development inside and outside country, and some related theories on business process reengineering. With logistics developed for more than half century overseas, and a few decays in China, more advanced management ideas are produced. For BPR, once it was brought forward by Michael Hammer and James Champy, it became the helper of many companies, which changed the company radically. Based on the theory, the paper analysis the environment of BPR and its guidelines and the use of information technology in BPR is especially pointed out. Based on information technology, the paper does research on the logistics organization structure and logistics business process. Starting with logistics organization structure, the paper sees the trend through its developing history, selecting a logistics organization fitted to different enterprise in different developing status. Logistics organization structure is changed according to logistics business process. In order to win in a competitive market, the enterprise has to change its rock-bound process, making it the best. The paper researches on enterprise logistics process through four levels, that is purchasing logistics, product logistics, distribution and returned logistics, among which, traditional purchasing logistics process, product logistics process and distribution process are paid more attention and then new processes are performed. All of them can give the enterprise logistics business reengineering a good guide, especially the integration of purchasing, product and distribution, and the integration of logistics flow, information flow and cash flow based on information technology. In the end, the paper takes Nanping Sun Cable Limited Company as an example. Though Sun Cable Limited Company has been changed from state owned to stock-holding system for many years, it still has common faults in state enterprise, such as too large organization structure, low working efficiency, too many non-value-added flows and so on. During the research, the author finds that logistics level is low and their logistics consciousness is dim, which are embodied in the outdated logistics establishment, decentralized logistics organization structure and miscellaneous logistics flow. Enclosing to these problem, the author puts forward settlement: redesigning the logistics organization structure, reprocessing purchasing, storage and distribution logistics.
