NO	KOMPONEN	FAKTA	PEMAHAMAN
1.	Facility location structure (struktur fasilitas)	Classical economic analysis had been deficient in that it neglected the importance facility location to operating performance. When economists of studied relationships within a variety of market structures, location advantages and transportation cost were often to be either nonexistent or equal among competitive firms. The number, size, and geographical arrangement of facilities operated or used near a direct relationship to the enterprise’s customer service capabilities and corresponding logistical cost outlay. (PAGE 43)	Struktur fasilitas sangat penting terhadap kinerja operasi, seperti fasilitas lokasi dan biaya transportasi. Dan perusahaan harus memperhatikan lokasi yang efektif sebab keuntungan meningkat di lihat dari lokasi dimana berada.
2.	Transportation (transportasi)	Generally, an enterprise has three alternatives in establishing transportation capability. First, a private fleet of equipment may be purchased or leased. Second, specific contracts may be arranged with transport specialists to provide contract movement service. Third, an enterprise may engage the services of any legally authorized transport company that offers point-to-point transfer at specified charges. These three forms of transport are known as private, contract, and common carriage. (PAGE 44)	Pada umumnya ada 3 alternatif dalam perusahaan untuk membangun kemampuan transportasi, alternatif pertama peralatan pribadi bisa di beli dan di sewa, kedua dalam bentuk hubungan kontrak dengan jasa pengangkut, dan ketiga perusahaan melibatkan layanan yang berwenang secara legal pada perusahaan transportasi untuk menyewa tanpa harus melewati kontrak.
3.	Communication (komunikasi)	Communication is an often-neglected activity in the logistical systems. In the past such neglect was due in part to the lack of data-processing and data transmission equipment capable of handling the necessary flow of information. A more important reason, however, has been the lack of understanding regarding the impact rapid an accurate communication can have upon logistical performance. (PAGE 46)	Komuikasi dalam sistem logistik sering kali di abaikan, karena kurangnya pemahaman terhadap prestasi logistik. Mungkin juga karena informasi yang di terima kurang akurat dalam kebutuhan suatu nasabah tersebut. Dan peralatan pengolahan data menangani arus informasi tidak ter-urus dengan baik.
4.	Imventary (persediaan)	The requirement for transport between facilities is based on the inventory policy followed by an enterprise. Logistical programs should be initiated with the objective of committing as few assets to inventory as possible. The answer to a sound inventory program is found in selective deployment centering on four factors: (1) customer qualities, (2) product qualities, (3) transport integration, and (4) competitor performance. Each of these factors is discussed briefly. (PAGE 45)	Persyaratan integrasi persediaan dalam logistik untuk mempertahankan kuantitas terendah. Program logistik di mulai dengan tujuan melakukan sedikit mungkin inventori asset, faktor yang mempengaruhi ialah; 1) kualitas pelanggan 2) kualitas produk 3) integrasi transportasi 4) kinerja pesaing. Jika perusahaan memiliki persediaan yang sedikit akan dapat mengatur dengan tepat jika kelebihan perusahaan akan sulit mengaturnya
5.	Handeling and Storage (penanganan dan penyimpanan)	In a broad sense, handling and storage involves movements, packaging, and containerization. Handling accounts for a great deal of the cost of logistics in terms of operations and capital expenditure. It stands to reason that the fewer times a product has to be handled in the total process, the less restricted and more potentially efficient will be the total physical flow. (PAGE 47)	Proses penanganan dan penyimpanan berhubungan dengan semua aspek operasi, menyangkut arus persediaan melalui fasilitas yang hanya bergerak untuk kebutuhan suatu produk. Dengan semakin dikit produk yang di tangani semakin sedikit hambatan arus total fisiknya

KESIMPULAN : Kekuatan utama logistik terletak pada teknik dan konsep penanganan yang terpadu. Komponen logistik dapat berkembang dari pengembangan konsep hingga ke sistem yang integritas. Focus pusat logistik adalah komitmen pada persediaan, jika perusahaan tidak secara konsisten memenuhi kebutuhan waktu dan tempat maka tidak efisien usaha yang di capai.
