Seven Functions of Logistics Transportation

In the eyes of laymen, logistics is the function of delivery, delivery and receipt. Is the logistics transportation management in today's society still the traditional logistics transportation? In fact, this is not the case. The traditional mode of logistics transportation can no longer meet the needs of today's consumers and workers. In the long-term accumulation of experience in the logistics industry, the current logistics transportation has seven functions.

1. Transportation function. Transportation function is the most basic and core function in the logistics industry. Transport the customer's goods from the local place to the designated place.

2. Warehouse function. At present, enterprises engaged in logistics, transportation and freight forwarding will have their own warehouses, which is convenient for users to store packages and their own goods storage management.

3. Packaging function. Some users send large packages to logistics companies. Some logistics companies will unpack and repack packages after consultation with customers.

4. Loading and unloading function. This function is also indispensable in the logistics industry. Some fragile products are easy to be damaged in the handling process. Therefore, intelligent mechanical equipment and handling equipment can greatly reduce the losses and labor costs caused in the handling process.

5. Delivery function. Today's logistics companies are no longer limited to door-to-door pick-up like traditional logistics, but will have delivery personnel to take door-to-door service to improve the service quality for customers.

6. Circulation processing function. Now many enterprises will seek software development companies to develop centralized transportation systems, transshipment systems, logistics management systems, etc., to facilitate high-quality management of corporate customers and customer packages. At the same time, there will be some additional functions in the software system for the convenience of users.

7. Information processing function. In the information age, people use intelligence in their own production and life, and the development of enterprises is even more so. Replacing labor with mechanized equipment improves work efficiency and facilitates users' use.

Therefore, the function of the logistics industry is not limited to the transportation of goods, and the labor cost is replaced by scientific and technological technology, which greatly improves the work efficiency.
