In logistics coordination, arranging transportation for same day delivery is difficult. How we can handle this?

If you fail to plan then you plan to fail.  You have to always thing ahead and put different back-up plans to serve the logistical purpose.  With this you will be successful.  In cases of emergency you will also need to keep a database for suppliers of 3PL. who can basically help you do your job in short-time frames.

Its All depends, What kind of Logistics we are dealing With, (Domestic, National, International) and Place or Country Origin we are living in, Specially in the Developed Countries its not that difficult to handle these kind of logistics (Likewise I Used to handle in London) people do pay for whatever its to handle their logistics. So its our call to say yes to their requirements.

• Other cities Pickup/ can be arranged with third parties by using the local medium approach may cost you cheaper than sending a man from where your companies based and saves a lot of time.
• If with in the City.. Cab/Motorcycle delivery (Hand to Hand) I personally have seen people paying for delivery charges for Paris to London
• (UPS, ParcelForce, DHL, FedEX)

In my previous experience we delivered on same day but some times delay to delivery i will explain and convince due to delay

Planning ahead is the most efficient way to deal with logistics, in this exceptional case the logistics in charge should be a solution provider. You can deliver in hours but it depends on many factors that you should take it into consideration ex : goods ready date, weight and CHW of the parcel, type of commodity ...

Express services have a special delivery service called courier on board or agent on board, which mean that an agent take your parcel get on board on the first flight going to the destination and deliver it by himself. Definitely this will cost extra money and it is an expensive service. Usually used for luxury services ( for far destinations)

Within Europe / MEA / GCC , express service is used for fast deliveries and can be delivered in one Day.

Dear sir,

steps are  (1) calling the customer by informing and explaining with good reasons  about the difficulties or by asking the customer about the urgency of his goods (customer satisfaction)    

                 (2) if the goods are urgent,you can give him another a truck which the goods are not urgent from another customer from the day as a first priority (customer care )

 

 

If we have advance planing it would never delays accept weather effect.

Most of the time , It is possible to deliver goods on same day if it local delivery. International through air freight within 24 days is also seen possible. 

Its a job of big responsibility. The cargo or shipper, whosoever is there should be well known & familiar with his territory.Route should be well planned to reach to the customer's destiny. 

the fist step for the quick delivery is be informed to the logistic officer to pass the request to the warehouse.

By means of Journey Management Program.

On that way, we can properly arranged our transportation safely.

Very rarely such cases occur where we need to send in a shipment on the same day. usually we get schedules in advance for deliveries so that we can arrange appropriate transortation. in case of a case of same day delivery. we contact the service provider and inform them of the urgent shipment that is to be delvered in the same day. it helps everyone.

Planning is very crucial, anticipation of delays, lags and inconveniences have to be planned for or catered for before hand. As part of planning, the logistics in charge has to ensure effective work division so that they come up with relevant teams to handle specific roles or responsibilities thus in this case; an arranging team with corresponding roles or duties as well as targets must be in place, a transportation team with corresponding roles or duties as well as targets must In place, a coordinating team with corresponding roles or duties must be in place and ultimately the logistics in charge must have an oversight of the activities & processes in order to ensure effective & efficient delivery. Thanx for the invitation
