More And More Enterprises Have Turned Their Attention To Logistics.

The proportion of the total cost of iron and steel is more than 10%. How to optimize the logistics cost in the future and realize it in the future

Upgrading is an urgent problem for iron and steel enterprises.

"One belt and one road" provides new opportunities.

In September 2013, when President Xi Jinping delivered a speech at Kazakh, Steiner, Zal and bayev University, he proposed to use innovative cooperation mode to jointly build the Silk Road Economic Belt.

In October of the same year, when President Xi Jinping visited Indonesia, he put forward the strategic conception of constructing the maritime Silk Road in twenty-first Century.

From the perspective of international regional development, "one belt and one road" put forward the key points of pportation development from the Baltic Sea to the Pacific Ocean, from Central Asia to the India ocean and the great economic corridor of the Persian Gulf. From the perspective of peripheral regional development, the "one belt and one road" proposed in-depth docking with the development strategy of Central Asian, South Asian and Western Asian countries, and cooperation in maritime resources, energy cooperation and port infrastructure construction will reach a new height.

From the point of view of industrial division of labor, "one belt and one road" has proposed the need for industrial development and industrial upgrading through industrial cooperation to solve the problem of linking up the infrastructure such as highways, railways and ports, creating a more free and open trade and investment environment. From the perspective of directly benefiting regions and industries, "one belt and one road" has provided new opportunities for the pportation facilities in Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and coastal areas, and has directly benefited the industries such as logistics, trade, finance, culture, tourism and infrastructure construction.

In June 11, 2014, Premier Li Keqiang chaired the executive meeting of the State Council, discussed and passed the "medium and long term plan for the development of the logistics industry", and made clear plans for 12 key projects, namely, agricultural product logistics, manufacturing logistics and supply chain management, and basically established a modern logistics service system in 2020.

According to statistics, the logistics cost of China's iron and steel industry in 2013 is about 260 billion yuan. At present, the logistics cost of China's iron and steel industry accounts for 10.5% of the manufacturing cost, compared with the international advanced level, Japan is 6.6%, and China is 5 percentage points higher.

According to the full cost of logistics supply chain, China's steel logistics costs account for 13%~15% of the total product cost, while the steel logistics cost of developed countries is only 8%~10% of the total cost of their products. If we reach the level of iron and steel logistics cost level of developed countries, we can save nearly 3 of the logistics cost. Therefore, the cost of logistics cost in China's steel enterprises has great potential.

However, the current situation of China's steel logistics development is not good.

Li Xinchuang, President of the metallurgical industry planning and Research Institute, said that the problem of arbitrary fees and fines for logistics enterprises was prominent in some places. The proportion of self owned enterprises in iron and steel logistics industry is still high. There are still scattered, small, and chaotic phenomena. The concentration of industries is relatively low, the advanced technology is difficult to promote, and the standard of material flow is difficult to be unified. In addition, there are many ways of pportation of steel and logistics, which fail to realize multimodal pport, and the problem of roundabout pportation and waste of resources is prominent.

Li Xinchuang believes that logistics runs through the whole process of purchase, production and sale of enterprises. In order to adapt to the modern market environment, it is very necessary for enterprises to develop an intelligent, efficient and green unified logistics management platform for logistics, and make systematic and scientific logistics optimization planning.

To some extent, upgrading the logistics industry is a pressing problem for iron and steel enterprises.
