Summary: | 碩士 === 國防管理學院 === 後勤管理研究所 === 94 === Logistics is said to be a multiplier of military forces. Therefore, to refine and solidify logistical operations is critical to efficiency of military forces. In recent years, implementation of Supply Chain Management (SCM) has become a major direction of corporal transformation and refinement on business procedures. Hence, utilizing integrated management module of SCM’s Vender Managed Inventory (VMI) to comprehend military necessities in order to lower the logistical costs has a great influence on the effectiveness of military forces.
This research is based on a case study of parts supply and transportation procedure and its supply chain scheme of a certain military weapon system. First, I will identify the bottlenecks of current supply and transportation procedure and related issues of the logistical operations via bibliography researches, interviews with experts, and data analysis. Then, I shall demonstrate implementing each activity of the supply chain scheme into VIM management module and having each function linked closely. Finally, I will provide a number of suggestions to improve current parts supply and transportation procedure.
The results of this research are acquired through procedure reconstruction which applies VMI disciplines to transform current tier-by-tier appropriation procedures into an active dual-layered appropriation strategy. With this strategy, supplying divisions can employ integrations of information technology (IT) to apprehend prompted interactions between each tier within the supply chain. At the same time, by allying with civil logistic companies, supplying divisions can also lower or shift the transportation risk with the aid of civil logistic companies’ flexible logistical operations. In sum, this appropriation strategy, which includes IT integrations and civil logistic company alliances, will be able to effectively shorten the transportation time frame, quickly reflect maintenance necessities, improve overall operation capabilities, promote customer satisfaction, and, most importantly, successfully refine and solidify logistical operations.
