Logistics in the Czech universities

Logistics is a highly complex system that is used in almost all fields of human life and if it is used skilfully, any company will be successful. Nowadays, Logistician is required in almost every company, because thanks to logistics there is a continuous circulation of goods and transport, information, financial and material resources are planned and regulated.

There are several disciplines within this industry:

  • manufacturing logistics;
  • procurement logistics;
  • transport logistics;
  • Information logistics;
  • Distribution logistics.

The task of logistics is to optimise the processes of transporting goods or people, ensuring delivery:

  • at the appointed time;
  • at a designated place;
  • in a certain quantity;
  • in the required quality and with the required service;
  • at optimum cost.

The logistician, for his part, must always be aware of the current location of the goods, the stages of their processing and be ready every minute to deal with issues that arise during the entire delivery process on the way to the recipient. Practical skills and personal qualities are of great importance in this profession. Logisticians need to be highly disciplined and have the stamina to make decisions in the event of unforeseen situations in the work process (deadlines, transport breakdowns, suppliers or employees not acting in good faith).
