Overview of Contents

Conference tracks

The competitiveness of a country, a sector or a com-

pany depends largely on its ability to innovate. This

calls for creative ideas when addressing topics that are

of central relevance for the future. What innovations

are being developed in logistics, supply chain manage-

ment and information technology?

INNOVATIONS SECTORS

Well-structured networks are a key success factor,

both in managing the complexity of fl ows of goods

and information and for cooperation between com-

panies and across national borders. How can these

increasingly integrated networks be effi ciently con-

trolled and optimised?

NETWORKS IDEAS

Logistics is a cross-sectional function and a decisive

success factor spanning entire sectors of industry –

and it is of key importance both within companies and

as a cross-company activity. The focus is on models to

meet current logistical challenges in diff erent sectors.

Social change, scientifi c progress and business success

all begin with an idea and the courage to put this idea

into practice. The sequences will present future-ori-

ented projects from the media, research, industry and

humanitarian logistics.

Albert Einstein is supposed to have said he wasn’t interested in the past but in the

future, because that’s where he intended to live. This would also be a good slogan

for a conference that is seen as an important source of ideas and innovations.

But experience tells us that, on its own, looking to the future is not enough. The

future is always rooted in the past.

This year, we will be able to look back on 30 years of the conference and 35 years

of BVL. Our community is more future-oriented than ever before and can draw on

well-founded expertise and wide-ranging experience. Together with inspiration

from new stimuli and the development of new ideas, this is what drives innovation

– in global business processes, social communication and sustainable business

activities. Supply chain management and logistics are and will remain key topics in

all fi elds of economy and society.

The economic outlook is improving and, as a result, the logistics sector is also

experiencing a steady uptrend driven by the optimistic mood, even if events in the

fi eld of monetary and fi scal policy, energy and raw material prices and the eco-

nomic situation in Europe act as ever-present reminders that caution is the order

of the day. The active exchange of knowledge, the interpretation of trends based

on shared experience and the joint development of strategies are, as always, both

important and necessary to generate “Inspiration, Ideas, Innovation”.

Welcome to Berlin!

This “milestone” anniversary is the ideal opportunity to look back at the develop-

ment of logistics and at the key stimuli generated every year by the International

Supply Chain Conference. The presentations and discussions will focus on the inno-

vative drive of the logistics sector. “Inspiration, Ideas, Innovation” is the core theme

in an era characterised by rapid change, high uncertainty and great volatility – but

also by dynamic concepts and creative drive.

Mastering Challenges through Transparency and Individual Responsibility

The automotive industry is operating in an increasingly complex and global envi-

ronment. From the point of view of supply chain management, this means that the

entire supply chain must be as transparent as necessary. The ever more complex work

processes are increasingly being managed through self-organisation to ensure that

each participant in these processes can make their own individual contribution.

Production Driven by Perfection and Passion

One of the factors behind the success of Porsche AG is a production concept that is

systematically geared towards quality and effi ciency – and this includes the com-

pany’s tailored logistics operations. Production at Porsche is a byword for the ideal

combination of craftsmanship and series production. This is key to producing pre-

mium sports cars with a high level of customisation driven by perfection and pas-

sion.

Humans and Robots Working Together – A New Industrial Revolution?

The availability of new key technologies driving far-reaching economic and social change

is the hallmark of an industrial revolution. Production operations in Europe are often

characterised by front-to-end automation, where humans are primarily responsible for

planning and maintenance tasks but are not involved in the actual production process.

The goal for the future is to introduce a “sliding automation scale” in which humans and

robots work hand in hand and complement each other.

Global Logistics Trends and Strategies

In a global market network the winners are those with the best relationships who

are able to work collaboratively with the best players. This is true not only for verti-

cal relationships with suppliers, but also for horizontal relationships with other com-

panies. It is not suffi cient anymore to think in terms of one’s own sphere of infl uence,

as the unit of competition is now the global network. What are top-performing com-

panies from diff erent sectors doing to gain a competitive advantage?

Trends and Strategies in Logistics

Customer companies expect logistics and supply chain management

to continuously evolve and develop new solutions. BVL has been reg-

ularly publishing the study “Trends and Strategies in Logistics and

Supply Chain Management” since 1988. The fi ndings of this year’s

study are based on a worldwide survey with over 1,700 responding

specialists and decision-makers. What are the current challenges

companies face? What are the strategies of best-in-class companies

from diff erent regions?

The Challenge of On-Time Delivery?

Compliance with agreed delivery dates is a central criterion for cus-

tomer satisfaction and customer loyalty. As a result, reliable supply

operations and exact delivery times are fast becoming a key factor

in the competitive arena. How can suppliers plan and keep to agreed

delivery dates? What processes need to be put in place to improve

compliance with delivery deadlines?

Big Data – Using Knowledge Eff ectively

A high volume of data is generated every day in both the private

and business sphere, but around 80% of it remains unused. Intelli-

gent solutions like “big data evaluations” are needed to master this

glut of information. Various technologies and methods help to struc-

ture this data and allow it to be put to good use in-house on a cross-

departmental basis. But which approaches are truly practicable

when expense and benefi t are weighed against one another?

Operational excellence is key to long-term success in the fi eld of

mechanical and plant engineering. The presentations showcase suc-

cessful and transferrable projects ranging from in-house process

optimisation and modern, software-supported sales and operations

planning through to the creation of a global sales network. The cen-

tral question is: how are optimisation models developed and suc-

cessfully implemented in practice?

Focal Point “Contract Logistics”

The more detailed the required performance description, the

better and more eff ective the outcomes of an invitation to ten-

der. What diffi culties are regularly encountered in cooperation

between industry and logistics service providers during the ten-

dering process? Which problems occur again and again, and how

can these problems be resolved in practice? The BVL “Contract

Logistics” working group was asked to address these issues. Ship-

pers and service providers present and discuss the fi ndings.

Success Factor Social Media

The use of social networks for customer relationship management

holds great promise for companies in all sectors. But it is impor-

tant to ensure that this communication is the “right” communica-

tion, as this is the only way to improve service standards and avoid

“shitstorms”. Social media guidelines are often drawn up to support

employees in their interaction with customers in these modern net-

works. Are these guidelines really useful? Which approaches appear

to be most eff ective? Join the debate!

The Mobile Computing Revolution

The ongoing trend away from conventional computers and towards mobile computing

is driving far-reaching changes in our everyday lives. Across the entire spectrum from

industry, production and supply chain management to fi nance, education, public admin-

istration and the healthcare sector, mobile computing enables us to totally change the

way we live. How does the high-tech industry respond to the many new expectations

and how can high-tech companies set themselves apart from their competitors?

Logistics Needs the Best

The logistics sector needs inspiration, ideas and innovation to meet the challenges of

the future. The SCM and logistics awards presented by BVL International are seals of

quality for outstanding innovative concepts and excellent achievements.

The winner of the German Award for SCM will be presented with the award during the

Anniversary Evening and will showcase the success and outcomes of the winning pro-

ject in detail.

This presentation will be followed by the award ceremony of the Science Award for

SCM. This award is being granted to an up-and-coming scientist and the supervising

institute by the Jury Chairman together with Dr. Robert Blackburn as representative of

the award sponsor BASF.

Logistics Innovations in the Field of Medicine –

Inspiration for Other Sectors?

Life and health are things of great value that deserve the best treatment and tried-

and-tested services. How can logistical methods be applied in a hospital environ-

ment? Can industrial processes be transferred to a medical setting? In which areas

do emergency services outshine all the supply chain managers in industry and

trade?

The interplay of IT and logistics know-how opens up new options and perspectives.

This is an area in which vertical cooperation is already a reality: hospitals, emer-

gency services, pharmacies and logistics service providers work hand in hand, pro-

viding an inspiring example for all sectors of industry.

Success Factor Technical Logistics

Camera-controlled robots perform automatic transfer of small load

carriers into the warehouse. Intelligent systems control the preci-

sion-timed supply routes and monitor all processes and routines.

This is no more than state of the art in modern warehouses. But

how do these ideas fi nd their way from research and development

through to practical application in industry? How can new techno-

logical developments help to further optimise logistics processes?

What kinds of innovative and intelligent solutions are being created?

chain and how do suppliers ensure constant product availability?

Which global strategies are in place that also cater to the highly spe-

cifi c demands of local markets?

Management of International Networks

Companies increasingly rely on foreign markets to achieve their

growth targets. At the same time, there is a shift in the interna-

tional fl ows of goods due to the dynamic growth in emerging

economies. How do global players adapt to this development and

what challenges do they face? What are the best practice examples

for the management and expansion of international networks and

to what extent are cooperation-based models the answer? Interna-

tional and national experts outline their approaches.

Success Factor Humanitarian Logistics

Acute and ongoing disasters call for reliable and fl exible logistics

solutions. The BVL working group “Humanitarian Logistics” out-

lines the key role played by logistics in the humanitarian fi eld. This

includes not only disaster risk reduction, in which for example sea-

ports are prepared for the challenges of crisis situations. Moreover

disaster aid partnerships between companies and aid organisations

are created, geared towards saving lives and mitigating suff ering in

the short term.

Future-Safe Design of Transport Systems

Forecasts predict that the total transport volume in Germany will

grow by 75 percent up to the year 2025. Parallel to the increasing

power of German industry, the policymakers must expect corre-

sponding growth in other areas, in particular in terms of the amount

of freight that needs to be transported. In addition, Germany is seen

as Europe’s primary transit country. How can the transport infra-

structure keep pace with this growth? Representatives from the

fi elds of politics and industry discuss transport in tomorrow’s world

and outline future challenges and solutions.

Focus on the Trading Sector

The trading sector is aff ected by high volatility and hard-to-predict

consumer patterns. Trading logistics can increase agility and fl exi-

bility. While process optimisation in the branch outlet has become

a key criterion in the stationary retail segment, the main factors in

online trading are handling returns and ensuring same-day deliver-

ies. How do today’s traders deal with these challenges?

Holistic Procurement Management

Hidden costs are everywhere, but how can they be identifi ed and

optimised? The TCO principle (total cost of ownership) is a proven

instrument to ensure holistic procurement management and pin-

point all cost drivers. It is not only of relevance to purchasing deci-

sions but can also help to create transparency along the entire

value added chain and therefore to ensure more eff ective corpo-

rate management. Companies from diff erent sectors outline their

approaches.

Success Factor Refurbishing

Particularly in times of increasing scarcity of resources, the resale of

a used or repaired product is advantageous for companies not only

from an ecological but also from an economic point of view - but

these re-use processes pose many diff erent challenges. This is why

there is still huge untapped potential for additional business in the

form of refurbishing, remanufacturing or recommerce in many sec-

tors.

The German Success Model – Outlook, Potential and Risks

The German economy is the cornerstone and the future hope of the eurozone. Dual-

element vocational training, employee participation and our innovation networks are

considered role models all over the world. At the same time, competitors are becom-

ing increasingly strong in the sales markets in our globalised world and production

locations are becoming centres of research and development. What are the implica-

tions for the German success model?

Business with Purpose

More and more people are looking for products that “make sense” and that promote

the development of humankind and our planet. This was the inspiration for the cre-

ation of the organic food retailer Alnatura almost 30 years ago. How can we rethink

industry and business so that we act in a meaningful and ecologically sustainable

way?

Production and Services in the Digital Era

The “Fourth Industrial Revolution” is a term used to describe the integrated produc-

tion operations of the future, where autonomous, self-organising production enti-

ties are networked with each other and supported by intelligent products. Parallel

to this, there are indications of a structural change in the classic service sector. The

perspective is that the use of secure cloud infrastructures and the provision of new

service platforms will lay the foundation for the future “Internet of Services”.

The Challenge of Young Professionals

Today’s “young generation” have been hugely infl uenced by digitalisation, globali-

sation and fl exibilisation and have new and diff erent expectations of their future

jobs. How can companies ensure that young professionals see them as attractive

employers? What should companies bear in mind when recruiting new personnel?

Let yourself be inspired by the creative ideas of experienced experts in an interac-

tive workshop.

Moderation:

The German Award for SCM, to be pre-

sented by BVL for the 30th time this year,

is a highly prestigious award among

logistics and supply chain managers in

all sectors of industry. The motto for the

fi rst time this year is “Wanted: Innova-

tion”. While the focus of the jury under

Chairman Prof. Bernd Gottschalk has pre-

viously been on integrated logistics solu-

tions, the spotlight in 2013 is on innova-

tions. Entrants may submit descriptions

of methods and processes that have

resulted in improvements to SCM and

logistics. The concept should preferably

already have been implemented in prac-

tice. It is all about the innovative charac-

ter, implementation and outcomes of the

concept. The entry should be as specifi c

as possible. Facts, fi gures and data play a

decisive role. The deadline for entries is

June 30, 2013.

www.bvl.de/en/gascm

Every year, the International Supply Chain Con-

ference is also the setting for award ceremo-

nies. Which companies and which scientists

have developed outstanding concepts for the

future organisation of logistics and supply

chain management? Which current and hands-

on theses present innovative approaches?

Day-to-day logistics thrives on innovation

and inspiration from the world of science

– the kinds of ideas that are found in dis-

sertations, for example. This is why BVL

has been presenting the Science Award

for SCM for 20 years now. This award is

conferred in recognition of outstanding

academic work of young scientists that

is of particular real-world relevance. The

award also goes to the supervising insti-

tutes, as they generated decisive stim-

uli and created the necessary conditions

for targeted work and research. The Jury

Chairman is Prof. Michael Schenk. The

award winner is chosen in a two-stage

process. The ceremony for the award,

which is once again being supported by

BASF in 2013, takes place on the Thursday

of the conference.

www.bvl.de/en/sascm

BVL confers its Thesis Award, which this

year is being supported by DB Schenker,

in recognition of outstanding Bachelor,

Master and “Diplom” theses. The theses

should be application-focused and topical

and should be of relevance to logistics. In

2012, 84 university lecturers put forward

the best thesis they supervised in the

fi eld of logistics in the preceding year and

nominated the student in question for

the award. The award winner receives a

certifi cate and an invitation to the Inter-

national Supply Chain Conference. Nom-

inations for the 2013 Thesis Award can be

submitted between June 3 and 30, 2013.

The annual Supply Chain Day will take place for the sev-

enth time on April 10, 2014 under the motto “Logis-

tics paves the way”. Since its launch in 2008, this day of

action has proven a great success; on the last such day in

April 2013, around 36,000 visitors found out more about

logistics solutions and services at 381 events. The con-

cept: many companies, organisations and educational

institutions provide the public at large with the chance

to take a look behind the scenes, to obtain information

and to gain insights into logistical processes and activ-

ities. Around 640 companies and organisations were

involved in Supply Chain Day in 2013. And, as in 2012,

career prospects in the logistics sector, whether in indus-

try, trade or logistics services, was one of the central

themes. Many companies made valuable contacts with

school and university students who were interested in

training options, degree courses and career entry follow-

ing graduation.

their doors and showcase their logistics expertise on
