INTRODUCTION

• Transportation is the main artery of logistics and supply chain management.

• Transportation means movement of goods and persons from one place to another.

• Transportation plays a significant role in supply chain processes because products are rarely produced and consumed in the same locations.

Page 3: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Definition

• According to Marshal, “ The transport industries, which undertakes nothing mere movements in persons and things from one place to another, have constituted one of the most important activities of men in every stage is advanced civilization.”

Page 4: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Features of Transport System

• Transport infrastructure is capital intensive• Creation of transport infrastructure requires

time• Involves huge cost• Provide linkage between production and

consumption• Effective use of energy is a critical aspect of

transport sector

Page 5: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Transport Cost Elements

• Tariff of transport mode• Transit time cost• Obsolescence cost• Packaging cost• Insurance cost• Breakage • Miscellaneous Cost

Page 6: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Role of Transportation

• Widening of market • Economies of large scale production• Transport increases the economic efficiency or

resources• Increases the mobility of labour and capital• Transport curbs monopoly of the traders• Stability in prices

Page 7: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Contd.

• Transport is the basic service for increasing national income

• Transport helps to create new economic activity

• Specialization and division of labour• Transport enlarges the trading activities of a

country• Increases employment oppurtunities

Page 8: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Parties in Transportation

• Common Carrier• Contract carries• Exempt carriers• Private carriers

Page 9: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Basic elements of Transportation

• Vehicle or carrier to carry passengers or goods• Route or path• Terminal facilities for loading and unloading of

goods and passengers from carriers• Involvement of time• Involvement of cost• Prime mover or energy• Cargo

Page 10: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Main task in transportation management

1. An assessment of the transport requirement is made

2. The mode of transport is selected by the distribution manager by considering the cost factors, the product to be transported and the market to be tapped

3. The distribution manager decides the route4. A detailed operational plan is developed for

each product and supply warehouse

Page 11: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Modes of Transport

1) Land Transport 2) Water Transport3) Air Transport4) Pipe-lines

Page 12: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

1) Land Transport

Land transport can be further be classified in to-1. Pathways2. Roadways3. Tramways4. Railways

Page 13: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

2) Water Transport

1) Inland water transport consist of river and canal transport

2) Ocean transport

Page 14: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Selection of mode of transport• Speed• Cost• Flexibility• Regularity• Safety• Nature of commodity• Special service• Distance• Versatility• Transit time

Page 15: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Transport pricing

• Pricing plays a major role in transport in many countries.

• Efficiency leads to the rule that prices are based on marginal social cost implying that the marginal benefits of transport activities equal the marginal social costs.

Page 16: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Contd.

• These social costs usually depends on four elements

I. Cost related to timeII. Cost of inputs acquired via the private

market III. Costs related to the services rendered by the

public sector IV. External costs imposed on others

Page 17: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Methods of Transport Pricing

1. Cost based pricing2. Pricing method based on competition3. Distance based pricing

Transport infrastructure in India

• Railways. Indian Railways is one of the largest railways under single management.

• It carries some 17 million passengers and 2 million tonnes of freight a day in year 2007 and is one of the world’s largest employers.

• The railways play a leading role in carrying passengers and cargo across India's vast territory. However, most of its major corridors have capacity constraint requiring capacity enhancement plans.

Page 19: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Roads

• Roads are the dominant mode of transportation in India today.

• They carry almost 90 percent of the country’s passenger traffic and 65 percent of its freight.

• The density of India’s highway network -- at 0.66 km of highway per square kilometer of land – is similar to that of the United States (0.65) and much greater than China's (0.16) or Brazil's (0.20).

Page 20: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Contd.

• However, most highways in India are narrow and congested with poor surface quality, and 40 percent of India’s villages do not have access to all-weather roads.

Page 21: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Ports

• India has 12 major and 187 minor and intermediate ports along its more than 7500 km long coastline.

• These ports serve the country’s growing foreign trade in petroleum products, iron ore, and coal, as well as the increasing movement of containers.

• Inland water transportation remains largely undeveloped despite India's 14,000 kilometers of navigable rivers and canals.

Page 22: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Aviation• India has 125 airports, including 11 international airports.• Indian airports handled 96 million passengers and 1.5

million tonnes of cargo in year 2006-2007, an increase of 31.4% for passenger and 10.6% for cargo traffic over previous year.

• The dramatic increase in air traffic for both passengers and cargo in recent years has placed a heavy strain on the country's major airports.

• Passenger traffic is projected to cross 100 million and cargo to cross 3.3 million tonnes by year 2010.

Page 23: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Challenges

India’s roads are congested and of poor quality

Rural areas have poor The railways are facing severe capacity

constraints Urban centres are severely congested Ports are congested and inefficient

Page 24: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Key Government Strategies

Increasing public funding for transportation in its Five Year Plans. Launching the ambitious National Highway Development

Program which has seven phases and is expected to be completed by 2012. It includes improved connectivity between Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata, popularly called the Golden Quadrilateral, in the first phase, North- South and East- West corridors in phase two, four laning of more than 12,000 km in phase three, two laning of 20,000km and six laning of 6,500 km respectively in phase four and five, development of 1,000km of expressway in phase six and other important highway projects in phase seven. Total expected investment is INR 2.2 trillion.

Page 25: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Contd.Accelerated Road Development Program for the

North East Region to provide road connectivity to all State capitals and district headquarters in the region.

Financing the development and maintenance of roads by creating a Central Road Fund (CRF) through an earmarked tax on diesel and petrol.

Operationalising the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) to act as an infrastructure procurer and not just provider.

Page 26: TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT

Contd. Improving rural access by launching the Pradhan Mantri

Gram Sadak Yojana (Prime Minister’s Rural Roads Program).

Reducing the congestion on rail corridors along the highly trafficked Golden Quadrilateral and improving port connectivity by launching the National Rail Vikas Yojana (National Railway Development Program)

The development of two Dedicated Freight Corridors from Mumbai to Delhi and Ludhiana to Dankuni.
