2. Introduction
Selection of Topic:
In partial of our M.B.A course, we are supposed to prepare a project
report for our subject “Project Report” in order to show our skills and
also to prove our abilities. Hence, we took the opportunity to increase
our knowledge concerning to the Foreign Trade Field through this
topic.
For us it was a great opportunity and therefore we have selected
the title of my project i.e. “LOGISTICS and EXPORT PROCEDURES”
with reference to Prof. Joystana Jadhav.

3. Objectives of Project
Since we have a keen interest in knowing new things especially
related to the area of Foreign Trade. We selected a topic related to the
area of this field.
As we want to enhance our career from the Foreign Trade
stream, the research made by us to complete this project will prove to
be very helpful.
The main objective of our project on the topic “Logistics and
Export Procedures” is to study the import and export procedures under
logistics and advantages of it with the opening up of Globalization
which indeed resulted as the main cause for the emergence of
FOREIGN EXHCANGE EARNINGS IN India.
So, we would like to clearly mention that, my project purely
involves the basic concepts of The Logistics and Export trade.

4. LOGISTICS
Logistics is the art of managing the supply chain and the science of managing
and controlling the flow of goods, information and other sources like energy and
people between the point of origin to the point of consumption in order to meet
customers’ requirements. It involves integration of information, transportation,
inventory, warehousing, material handling, and packaging.
Export Logistics involve international movement of cargo. This business has
undergone a great change over the years. Not only have volumes gone up
manifold, the approach to handling those volumes has also seen a paradigm shift.
In short integrated logistics is concerned with getting products and services where
they are needed and required.
The operating responsibility of logistics is the geographical repositioning of raw
materials, work in process and finished inventories where required and achieving a
target level of customers at the lowest cost possible.

5. SUPPLY CHAIN
A supply chain is a network of facilities and distribution options that performs the
functions of procurements of materials, transportation of these materials into
intermediaries and finished product and the distribution of these finished products to the
ultimate consumer.
A supply chain consists of three or more companies directly linked to each other a basic
supply chain consists of a company and immediate supplier and an immediate customer.
Supply chain involves integration of business processes and linkages with suppliers and
customers in the value chain.
Logistical competency can be achieved by integrating and coordinating its 5 main
constituents.
Hence logistics is concerned with the following functions:
1. INFORMATION
Information plays an important role in every logistical system. Information quality
is of great importance as it reflects on positioning inventory and movement of
goods ultimately results into efficiency of total operations.
Forecasting and Order management are two areas of logistical work that depend
on information.
2. NETWORK DESING
It is the determination of the number and location of all types of facilities required
to perform logistics work based on geographical location of facility. Specific tasks
related to processing customer orders, maintaining inventory and material

6. handling are all performed within the network design framework. In global
logistics, issues related to network design become more complex in nature.
3. TRANSPORTATION
Based on facilities like network design and information system, transportation is
the operational area of logistics that geographically positions inventory.
Transportation is having fundamental importance and visible cost. It can be
accomplished by –
Having own/Private fleet of vehicles;
Having contracts with transporters/logistics service providers – contract
carriage;
Appointing number of carriers to execute different orders in relevant
manner – common carriers.
4. INVENTORY
The inventory requirements of a firm depend on the network structure and the
desired level of customer service. Common objective is to accomplish efficiency
in customer service by maintaining inventory at minimum level with consistency
in lower total cost. Errors in design of logistical system and inferior management
results into excess inventories.
5. WAREHOUSING, MATERIAL HANDLING AND PACKING
Earlier a warehouse is typically viewed as a place to store inventory. However, in
many logistical system designs, the role of the warehouse is more properly viewed
as switching facility as contrasted to a storage facility. A major problem in
logistical operations during the past several decades has been the level of labor
productivity. Productivity is ratio of physical output to physical input.
Material handling process deals with number of labor hours required to perform
creates a vulnerability to any reduction in the output rate as per labor hours. The

7. application of labor to product selection and handling represents one of the
logistics highest personnel cot components.
Packaging has a significant impact on the cost and productivity of the logistical
system. Costs are associated with packaging raw materials, labor and disposal
functions.
Therefore logistical service is a balance of service priority and cost.

8. Three Parameters to Measure
Logistical Competency
1. Availability:
Having inventory/stocks to consistently meet the customer product needs.
2. Operational performance:
It deals with the lapse time from the order receipt till/to the delivery of the
product. It can also be viewed in terms of its flexibility in accommodating
unusual and unexpected customer request.
3. Service flexibility:
It means quality attributes of logistics.
The firm established with expressed of objective of providing integrated
logistical services to shipper customers. The vision of these firms is to offer a
service sufficiently comprehensive to provide all or a significant part of
shipper’s total logistical requirements. This activity is called as “Third party
logistics (3PL) and the firm who undertakes the said activity is called as
“third party logistics service provider”.

9. EXPORT PROCEDURES
INTRODUCTION TO EXPORT

carried out under definite procedures. The various procedures that are followed
in the export of goods facilitate execution of export in a systematic manner.

an getting an enquiry, the exporter must process it immediately by making an offer
in the form of proforma invoice.
