Transshipment as a logistic process has a great influence on the transportation system. Although the rate of failures while changing means of transport and time of process is low, transshipment should be taken into account during assessing systems factors, e.g. reliability. In the paper a five phases-reliability model of an intermodal system is presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper concerns the recognition of possibilities of using the Analizer Logistic 2000 system for computer-assisted design of warehouses and palletization of various assortments of load units, with taking into account the parameters of the load units with their content, these load units assuring a stream-based supply of the process cell, and being formed in the framework of this process cell.

Idea of supply chain appeared in the eighties as a result of changes that had influenced enterprises and their environment. Supply chain management means an integration of all enterprises that work together in order to ensure the end client a product in right time, quality, quantity and at right cost. Introducing of supply chain has resulted in changes in other market participants' perception. Close cooperation with suppliers, clients and others enterprises responsible for logistics is a basic concept. While ideas of common interest and trust were promoted they started to be partners instead of being opponents. The results of investigations conducted in American enterprises identified the factors that determine a success in supply chain management. The most important factors were: reducing response time across the supply chain, increasing trust among its members, improving activity integration across the chain and searching for new ways f this integration, establishing more frequent contact among supply chain members. It is obvious, that those elements concerned simply collaboration and information flow with supply chain members, especially with suppliers. The problems that hinder the supply chain management were also mostly connected with the matters mentioned above. Not so long time ago procurement was regarded as a tactical function that, while well performed, can bring an enterprise only limited benefits. This opinion influenced the way in which supplier were treated. Since that time the point of view was entirely changed as it is shown in Table 2. A necessity of long term relationship with strong both side involvement, two way systematic digital information flow, joint and long term planning, shared benefits and risks is now emphasized. The last section of the paper concerns the subject of relations with suppliers. The most important problem is "how to choose a supplier?", so the criteria that are used during the supplier selection are listed. The most common used criteria are: quality, overall cost, delivery time and flexibility; however their importance varied in dependence of product type, kind of enterprise, situation on the market etc. The next question that has arisen is "how to choose our most important suppliers?". One uses model for value measurement - it determines supplier importance in relation to the costs of purchase. The second model takes into account supplier importance in relation to the trust. On the grounds of this models the enterprise can point the suppliers that are especially important, determine where the time and the biggest efforts should be engaged etc. In some cases big number of suppliers makes difficult building a relation of partnership. In such situation the optimization of the base of suppliers is necessary. It concerns mostly the first tier suppliers who become the second tier suppliers. It often occurs when the enterprise abandons the production of a component in order to buy it from another enterprise. American research shows that the number of key suppliers increases while the total number of suppliers decreases. Early supplier involvement is a good example of collaboration between an enterprise and its suppliers. It is a mean for improving costs and quality of a new product design. The other way of cooperation is the suppliers' access to production or sale plans or shared using of analysis and forecasts. This advanced collaboration requires a good information exchange. The application of modern computer and network communication tools is the basic condition of achievement so advanced level of information flow. Extranet and different solutions of electronic data interchange are presented as the means of information flow between enterprise and its suppliers.… [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the existing conditions of globalizing economy, the uncertainty in business uncertainty grows. When searching for competition possibilities, more and more enterprises create delivery networks, whose principles of functioning can be compared to the functioning of mutually penetrating systems or fuzzy sets. In order to assure their efficient functioning (what, in fact, signifies their elasticity in adapting to changing conditions), it becomes necessary to determine certain game rules, which will be observed by all the participants. Relations between the participants, founded upon trust, create bases for good knowledge exchange. If conditions appear for creating trust, then the communication is also better functioning (the communication channels are opening), what creates a space for the diffusion of knowledge in the framework of the network. In order to assure an efficient communication course, it is necessary to use advanced informatic tools. The knowledge flow between the participants, the access to knowledge (among them best practice) is negatively correlated with risk. The greater the inclination is for sharing knowledge and the higher the trust between the participants, the smaller is the risk connected with management of the delivery network.
