Abstract
With revenues of over US$1 billion, UPS Logistics Group was a wholly owned subsidiary of United Parcel Service, which offered a full range of supply chain services in North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America. UPS Logistics was responsible for distribution in Eastern Canada for the Canadian Pharmaceutical Distribution Network, an association of pharmaceutical manufacturers that jointly distribute products to hospital pharmacies. Members of this association are unhappy with the current performance of the supply chain, and have asked UPS Logistics'' general manager for operations to establish a set of key performance indicators for the network''s distribution operations. The general manager must determine how the logistics would be measured before setting specific improvement targets.
