Logistics Systems Engineer – Interdisciplinary Competence
PAPER LOGISTICS SYSTEMS ENGINEER – INTERDISCIPLINARY COMPETENCE MODEL FOR MODERN EDUCATION Logistics Systems Engineer – Interdisciplinary Competence Model for Modern Education http://dx.doi.org/10.3991/ijep.v5i2.4578 Tarvo Niine and Ott Koppel Tallinn University of Technology, Tallinn, Estonia Abstract—Logistics is an interdisciplinary field of study. However, based on research of university curricula, it is Modern logisticians need to integrate business management observed that the field of logistics education does not and administration skills with technology design, IT systems include engineering aspects to enough extent. This is both and other engineering fields. However, based on research of in terms of technologies as well as the systematic nature of university curricula and competence standards in logistics, engineering thinking. Large proportion of logistics the engineering aspect is not represented to full potential. curricula are focused on business administration with only There are some treatments of logistician competences which selected engineering topics touched, usually focusing on relate to engineering, but not a modernized one with wide- case studies of implementation benefits rather than how to spread recognition. This paper aims to explain the situation specifically design, develop such technologies and to re- from the conceptual development point of view and suggests engineer processes to accommodate with the changes. In a competence profile for “logistics system engineer”, which terms of logistics system design and underlying thought introduces the viewpoint of systems engineering into processes, the approach could often benefit from being logistics. For that purpose, the paper analyses requirements more systematic. of various topical competence models and merges the introductory competences of systems engineering into Similar gap can be observed on the level of competence logistics. -

FIU BOT Approved April 21, 2021 and June 16, 2021 EDUCATIONAL PLANT SURVEY OVERVIEW In Florida, all public school districts, colleges and state universities are required to conduct an Educational Plant Survey (EPS) at least once every 5 years using “uniform data sources and criteria”(Section 1013.31, Florida Statutes). An EPS is a systematic and comprehensive study of each institution’s sites, buildings, and the site improvements required to operate the facilities. This includes a review of both the 1) existing educational and ancillary facilities and 2) anticipated future needs for repair, expansion and/or demolition. The EPS is a safeguard mechanism to ensure that PECO dollars, and the assets constructed with PECO dollars are being directed appropriately towards needed educational buildings. The EPS is undertaken collaboratively by the EPS Survey Team, which consists of staff of the university being surveyed; Board of Governors’ staff; and staff from other universities. The final EPS Report must be approved by both the local Board of Trustees as well as the Board of Governors. The EPS is one of 3 long-range planning documents – the EPS, the Campus Master Plan and the 5 Year Capital Improvement Plan. Required EPS Elements • Summary of approval by the Board of Trustees and Board of Governors • Recommendations for existing facilities • Recommendations for new facilities • Projected capital outlay full-time equivalent student enrollment • Inventory of existing sites and facilities The procedures to be used in conducting each EPS are specified -
Developing Purchase Planning
Developing purchase planning Anton Rudenko Bachelor’s thesis May 2018 Technology, communication and transport Degree Programme in Logistics Engineering Description Author(s) Type of publication Date Anton Rudenko Bachelor’s thesis May 2018 Language of publication: English Number of pages Permission for web publi- 95 cation: x Title of publication Developing purchase planning Degree programme Logistics Engineering Supervisor(s) Minna Kervinen; Ilola Mikko Assigned by Company A Abstract Global competition gets tougher and more intense forcing companies not only not to slow down but also to conquer new markets, niches, goals in pursuit of greater financial and op- erational results. There are 2 major ways of striving for such progressive goals: increase of sales indexes (e.g. quantity, margins, frequency) or operations optimization providing a company with additional free capital which may not only be treated as a profit but also re- invested stimulating growth. The key objective of the thesis was to develop a list of practi- cal solutions which can help improve company`s operations and efficiency. The imperfections and issues in the operations were examined and analyzed to improve efficiency and sustainability of the operations department. The research questions were “What are the requirements for a well working purchase planning processes?”; “What kind of challenges and benefits do current operations have?”; “What corrections should be made to reduce mistakes and bring cost efficiency?”. The research method used was qualitative method focusing rather on the meaning of the collected data than on the quantity. Thus, the interviews conducted were analyzed accord- ing to the vast theoretical foundation by implementation of various analysis methods such as brainstorming and SWOT-analysis. -

How Integrated Is Integrated Logistics?
11 South African Journal of Industrial Engineering Vol. 8, No.2, 1997 How integrated is integrated logistics? PJ Pretorius B.Eng (Industrial) CPIM MBA Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering University of Pretoria Description: A model is constructed from the necessary conditions derived from the definition of integrated logistic support that suggests how business logistics and logistics engineering have to co-exist and be integrated to achieve integrated logistics. Abstract: Industry and academia still have a major problem in grasping the extent and relationships of all functions involved in integrated logistics. This is because business logistics and logistics engineering developed separately, each with their own following, resulting in the two so-called different disciplines ignoring each other. By analysing the definition of integrated logistic support, it is possible to identify the necessary conditions for an integrated logistics model. From these necessary conditions, a model of the management functions and technical activities is constructed to suggest the purpose and place of all logistics functions to work in an integrated way towards the goal of the organisation. The model suggests that logistics engineering and business logistics are both required in the organisation and that it is of vital importance that these functions are executed in unison. This model is different to previous models in that it approaches logistics from the organisations viewpoint rather than from a logistics viewpoint. Keywords: Integrated logistics support, logistics engineering, operational logistics, business logistics. 1. Introduction The goal of any profit-seeking organisation is to make money (Goldratt, 1990:12). It is therefore necessary to approach all management and technical activities from this basic principle. -
The Development of a Framework for an Integrated Logistics Support System Within a High Technology Industry in a Developing Country
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FRAMEWORK FOR AN INTEGRATED LOGISTICS SUPPORT SYSTEM WITHIN A HIGH TECHNOLOGY INDUSTRY IN A DEVELOPING COUNTRY by KEITH RICHARD LAMBERT submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF BUSINESS LEADERSHIP at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA PROMOTER: DR M. M. MARSHALL March 2008 ABSTRACT Competitive and high-risk environments require complex high technology systems, which need to be supported and maintained over their respective life cycles. These systems often have a significant consequence of failure, and require complex management systems to achieve their operational objectives. Significant leadership and management challenges exist, not only in South Africa, but also in other developing countries, where systems may be utilised beyond the lifespan they were designed for and are susceptible to obsolescence. This study was conducted by following a structured process; the research consisted of three stages. The first stage dealt with the research problem, including the delimitations of the study. The second stage was further divided into three phases. The first phase deconstructed the appropriate literature, which included the interpretation of numerous definitions of logistics, integrated logistics support, and the integrated logistics support elements. In addition, the research was grounded in the fields of operations management, supply chain management and integrated logistics support. The second phase focused on the deconstruction of six case studies from four different high technology complex systems. From the analysis of the first two phases followed the third phase of research, which focused on the identification of areas requiring further research. Further research was conducted by means of a questionnaire, the results of which were analysed for variable dependency and variable association. -
