Especially in manufacturing terms the change is obvious and this fact puts a significant pressure on cost efficient and lead time wise supply chain solutions. At the same time there is a massive imbalance in the traffic flows between continents. This is in most cases due to the supply chain strategies large multinational companies opt for. Many of them optimize their network by embracing local sourcing to achieve control and responsiveness in their supply chains. As a consequence plenty of manufacturing units in Europe must use expensive raw materials and semi-finished items. The critical factors in most cases are related to transportation warehousing costs on the one hand and waste of time as a result of delays on the other. The optimal decision has to be reached considering the choice between centralized and decentralized inventory policies together with the choice of choosing the right combination of transportation modes.
