Abstract
Procurement logistics is a segment of logistics spanning business processes from goods procurement to the transport of materials to a receiving storage location or production site. Procurement logistics connects the distribution logistics of the external supplier with the production logistics of one’s own company. Its primary tasks within the framework of need-based procurement are to make available all goods and services necessary for planned operational performance processes in the correct type, quality and quantity.
