Role of Reverse Logistics and Recycling With In a Supply Chain ?


The process of planning, implementing, and controlling the efficient, cost effective flow of raw materials, in-process inventory, finished goods and related information from the point of consumption to the point of origin for the purpose of recapturing value or proper disposal. More precisely, reverse logistics is the process of moving goods from their typical final destination for the purpose of capturing value, or proper disposal.


Re-manufacturing and refurbishing activities also may be included in the definition of reverse logistics.Reverse logistics is more than reusing containers and recycling packaging materials. Redesigning packaging to use less material, or reducing the energy and pollution from transportation are important activities, but they might be secondary to the real importance of overall reverse logistics.


Importance of Reverse Logistics If no goods or materials are being sent "backward", the activity probably is not a reverse logistics activity. Reverse logistics also includes processing returned merchandise due to damage, seasonal inventory, restock, salvage, recalls, and excess inventory. It also includes recycling programs, hazardous material programs, obsolete equipment disposition, and asset recovery.


Key Reverse Logistics Management Elements:

  • Gate keeping

  • Compacting Disposition Cycle Time

  • Reverse Logistics Information Systems

  • Central Return Centers

  • Zero Returns

  • Re-manufacture and Refurbishment

  • Asset Recovery

  • Negotiation
