Materials, Inventory Warehousing and Distribution Management

Introduction

Material Management is a scientific technique, concerned with Planning, Organizing &Control of flow of Materials, from their initial purchase to destination. In the earlier years, Materials Management was treated as a Cost Centre, since Purchasing Department was spending money on materials while Store was holding huge inventory of materials, blocking money and space. Subsequently with the process of liberalization and opening up of global economy, there has been a drastic change in the business environment, resulting in manufacturing organizations exposed to intense competition in the market place. Manufacturers worldwide have been working out various strategies to face the above challenges and to cut down manufacturing costs to remain competitive.
