Study On Logistics Cost Management Of China Petroleum West Pipeline Construction Project

Logistics is also known as the Third Profit Source,the importance of which is growingly leaned by people nowadays.How to control costs of logistics and acquire better service with less cost is a significance research subject for logistics theory study as well as for logistics companies and logistics departments of enterprises.Oil industry is the foundation of national economy,and Petroleum pipelines and reserve storages construction is booming.Logistics management of these constructions is becoming aware of by companies' management.However,due to low level of operations of a majority of logistics companies and laggard management techniques and methods,logistics costs remain high.Strengthening management to reduce logistics costs is becoming an extremely urgent issue.By analyzing current situation and issues of logistics cost management in domestic pipeline constructions and logistics system for pipeline constructions,this article divided into six parts,studies activity-based logistics cost control methods and explores specific measures for the improvement of logistics cost management through activity-based costing.Chapter 1 expounds the background of this article,domestic companies" logistics cost study status,research thoughts,methods of this article,and lays a foundation for the rest.Chapter 2 mainly introduces logistics costs and related theory concerning logistics cost management.Chapter 3 using CNPC West Pipeline construction as an example,analyzes logistics cost management philosophies in domestic pipeline constructions.Also,this chapter analyzes logistic cost compositions.logistics cost management advantages. problems and causes by using activity-based logistics cost management methods.Chapter 4.by execution of active-based costing,brings up reducing logistics costs and improving logistic cost management through establishing complete procurement system.improving logistics transportation management.enhancing material turnover. perfecting talent stimulus mechanism.strengthening the informationalization of logistics cost management.network construction.Chapter 5 analyzes and assesses the implementation of activity-based costing m pipeline construction to prove the study feasibility so as to make this article scientific and practice-guiding. Chapter 6 sums up this article,and points out the article limitation and issues needed to be further studied.
