Production Logistics

What is Production Logistics?

Production logistics is part of both logistics and production. As a business term, it describes the planning, management and control of the internal storage, handling and transport processes of purchased parts, auxiliary materials, raw materials, spare parts, operating materials and other products that are required for production within a company.

The production logistics thus comprises the entirety of all logistical measures, activities and issues arising from the provision of services. As a link in the logistics chain, it is located between procurement logistics and sales logistics.
