Supply

The interdependent organisation of supply and demand,
including forecasting and strategic asset investment
Supply Chain Complexity Involves:

Labour
Oil and alternative energy
Transport
Logistics
Finance
Business Processes
Transaction Systems

1. Urbanisation
• China’s industrial revolution - creating cities
• 60% of the world’s population lives in 700
congested cities
• In the next decade, 50% of GDP will occur in
440 new cities - in newly emerging cities and
new markets
• The city logistics challenge is everywhere and
involves amenity, efficiency, sustainability and
productivity gain
8
2. Global connectivity
• Global capital flows expanded 25 times between
1980 and 2007
• New flows of capital, people and information;
constant geographic change, and volatility
• The focus is on complex webs of interaction
connecting emerging markets
• We are now in a new and dynamic phase of
globalisation …. that we ignore at our peril

3. Accelerated technology
• Digital life and mobile electronic commerce
(meCommerce) is here
• The “Internet of Things” and big data usage
now drives supply chain thinking
• New technologies, logistics assets, processes
and people are required
• Entry level requirements in supply chain and
logistics > digital literacy is fundamental

4. Ageing populations
• Australia's “2015 Intergenerational Report”
o Greater need for more efficient aged service delivery
models
• 60% of the world’s population lives in countries
where the fertility rate is less than population
replacement
o E.g. China’s labour force peaked in 2012
• Increasing reliance on automated logistics
• Higher productivity is now critical to operate

Servicing an ageing population

What do these global trends mean for
Local Government Managers?
• Urgent need: to take a global perspective and to
understand that supply chain and logistics are
economic and social enablers
• Strategic plans need to be articulated across and
between each level of government
• Smarter land use planning and regulation is needed
• Flexibility and responsiveness is needed – to survive
• Local training and employment is needed in SC&L
• We need to help business deal with constant transition

New Asset Investment
Toll Group
AUS $150m sorting facility close to Melbourne Airport
• Dedicated e-commerce parcel delivery service
• 35,000 parcels per hour
• About 500 employees will be based at the facility, with
staff expected to be relocated from existing sites in
Altona and Dandenong

Strategic planning must be integrated

Productivity gain is essential
• Logistics and freight transport are changing
– there is higher granularity
e.g. larger vehicles (HPFVs) and smaller multi-product
delivery vans (LCVs)
• Optimisation – determines investment
Across the whole supply chain
And locally e.g. cross-docking; delivery systems;
automated pick and pack processes
27
Land use planning & regulation
• Change is needed to reflect and enable supply
chain reconfiguration and reality:
o More loading docks and cross-docking sites
o Parcel hubs
o Activity centre access
o Out-of-hours delivery
o Recycling surplus assets and industrial areas
 Importer/exporter SME business success
depends on it
28
Raising awareness
• Strategic asset management and ‘enabling’
regulation are as important as protecting hard
infrastructure investment
• Promote SC&L as enablers of economic activity
and local wellbeing
• 14.7% of GDP is involved in delivering freight
• Work with industry to enable their ‘flexibility’
• Local government has a critical role in
understanding and supporting how SMEs can
survive and prosper
