Question

In the logistics-systems design matrix, volume, cost and speed of delivery are three variables (assume three levels: low, moderate or high) used to describe attributes of transportation modes. Rail is associated with:________

Answer 1

Answer:

High volume, Low cost and moderate speed of delivery.

Explanation:

Logistics-systems design matrix is a framework use to describe process of logistics. We check different mode of transport on the parameter of this matrix to compare and choose the best one as requirement. Mode of transport are Rail, water, hand delivery, road, pipeline and Air.

Parameter used in this matrix are Speed, volume and cost of delivery, which help us to identify which mode will be cheaper on every mile of transportation, which mode can be used to delivery products on time, and which mode of transportation should be used to delivery higher volume or lower volume of product.
