IBM Business Consulting Services conducted the GMA 2005 Logistics Survey in January 2005, in conjunction with the Grocery Manufacturers Association. This survey identifies current practices, captures significant trends and establishes operational performance benchmarks in key areas of supply chain logistics: strategic objectives, distribution and transportation practices, benchmarks, trends, outsourcing, alliances, information technology, forecasting and inventory management. The GMA committee has sponsored the logistics survey every two to three years, for the past two decades. In this year’s survey, several additional management practices and benchmarking questions were included. The team conducted 12 interviews with GMA committee executives to gain further insights into current issues and survey responses. External data was also incorporated to compare supply chain performance with other industry segments.
The GMA 2005 Logistics Survey was performed to better understand where supply chain logistics is today and how it is evolving. The survey provides insight into the adoption of leading practices. By capturing significant trends and operational performance benchmarks, it also places the research findings into an overall context and provides perspective on the continuing evolution of supply chain management principles and trends.
