Research On Logistics Cost Control Of CMP Northeast Representative Office

Logistics has been treated as "The Third Profit Source" of firms for a long time. This thesis starts from the problem Of logistics cost control of CMP Northeast Representative Office, the aim is to exploring the logistics cost control strategy of CMP Northeast Representative Office using the current logistics control theory and logistics cost control approach.The thesis can be divided into 5 parts. The first chapter is an introduction, it describes the research background, related research, research methods etc.. The second part introduces the theory of logistics cost control; the third part describes the logistics status of CMP Northeast Representative Office and its logistics cost control status. In the fourth part, the related logistics cost control strategies of CMP Northeast Representative Office is proposed. The last part is the conclusion. All the contents of the thesis are summarized as follows:First, in accordance with the definition of logistics costs, with reference to relevant researches, this thesis classified the logistics cost into a few parts according to their function, and based on this classification, the cost of transportation, warehousing and distribution cost is defined as the research center.Secondly, the current status of CMP logistics and the status of logistics cost control are introduced, the CMP logistics process is divided into 3 parts according to the above, and the problems come along with its logistics process are described.Finally, the solutions corresponding to the problems proposed above are proposed:(1) Information based storage system should be established, for the low efficiency of the existing storage system. The storage location and the quantity of the storage should be remembered with the system, in order to meet the sales that shifts with seasons, the sales quantity should be forecasted and the sales early warning mechanism should be established to make sure there are efficient products for sale.(2) To develop the current low efficiency of existing transport parts, different transport style should be selected according to the transport cost and the transport quantity, according to the actual logistics, the transport styles can be different, including third-party logistics, direct and self-delivery of goods, etc,(3) The delivery cost is analyzed with the ABC method. The result shows that, there is quite big difference between the cost calculated with ABC method and the cost reflected in the accounting system. Just the logistics cost in the accounting system is not enough for the whole logistics process, the real cost of logistics is somewhat larger.
