In addition, added more and more production out of the so-called low-wage countries, but many still control the logistics from their base.This means that the number of cross files are increasing. Local stock is also less than in the past, so the need to reduce lead times and above all, held has become increasingly important.

Also of increasing importance in view of the lower stocks the clients sitting on today
