The Logistic Management for E-Commerce

Abstract

Logistics is an important part of electronic commerce, while physical distribution systems have become an impediment restraining the development of electronic commerce. Meanwhile, the application of electronic commerce offers new opportunities for public and private institutions to improve the logistics and transport process and infrastructure. The results of e-commerce can be new distribution channels, new goods delivery concepts, and new networked configurations between goods producers and the suppliers of transport and logistics services. This thesis analyses the relationship of EC and logistics, makes a discussion on the development of logistics in the EC environment, and establish a new EC logistical network based on the postal service system, with the aid of the management information system.
