I. INTRODUCTION
Logistics refers to the responsibility to design and
administer systems to control movement and geographical
positioning of raw materials, work-in-process, and
finished inventories at the lowest total cost.[1] Logistics
involves the management of order processing, inventory,
transportation, and the combination of warehousing,
materials handing, and packaging, all integrated
throughout a network of facilities.
According to the logistical characters, logistics
information management systems include eight modules
such as system management, resources management,
customer management, contract management, exceptional
management, storage management, transaction
management and invoicing management. Each subsystem
has different functionality and the logistical information
systems are the thread that links logistics activities into an
integrated process. Logistical information systems initiate
activities and track information regarding processes, and
assist in management decision making.
