1. 1. New Logistics Business Model Applicants propose a new logistics business model. This new business model connects logistics companies with component manufacturers that manufacture components for building and / or refurbishing properties (eg, homes, buildings, towers, wooden buildings, etc.). By consistently managing from "ordering of parts" to "delivery to the site", it is intended to shorten the delivery time until the parts are delivered to the site. In this new business model, a logistics company receives a request from a property maker to build and / or refurbish a property and orders the parts manufacturer for the parts needed to build and / or refurbish the property (especially those parts, If the parts require build-to-order manufacturing, order the production of the parts from the parts maker), and when the parts maker completes the production of the parts, the produced parts are collected from the parts maker and collected. Deliver the finished parts to the site. As a result, the property maker does not have to order the parts from the parts maker, and the parts maker does not have to deliver the produced parts to the site by themselves. Since the logistics company delivers the parts in bulk instead of delivering the parts, the merit that the necessary parts do not arrive separately at the site and the merit that the necessary parts arrive according to each process within the construction period. There is. Furthermore, for customers who request the property manufacturer to build and / or refurbish the property, there is an advantage that the construction period of the property can be shortened by shortening the delivery time of the parts, and the logistics company can deliver to the site. By reducing the total number, it is possible to reduce the time and cost for delivery, and it is environmentally friendly from the viewpoint of exhaust gas control. Further, by approximating the delivery unit of the member to the process unit of building and / or remodeling the property, it is possible to deliver the member to the site according to the process of building and / or remodeling the property.

In addition, the new business model described above will also allow logistics companies to create an estimation table of materials required for building and / or refurbishing a property, which is a process further upstream than ordering parts from a parts manufacturer. , "Creation of necessary parts integration business" to "delivery to the site" may be managed consistently. In this case, the logistics company creates a totalization table of the necessary parts and orders the necessary parts from the material manufacturer based on the totalization table, so that the property maker does not need to create the totalization table of the necessary parts. Moreover, there is an advantage that it is not necessary to order the parts from the parts manufacturer. The merits of the component manufacturer and the person in charge at the site are as described above.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an example of the flow of a new business model of logistics. In addition, "property maker" means a company that builds and / or remodels a property (for example, a house, a building, a tower, a wooden building, etc.), and "material maker" means a company for building and / or remodeling a property. A company that produces parts (for example, a "parts maker" makes to order parts for building and / or refurbishing a property). Hereinafter, each step of the flow shown in FIG. 1 will be described in detail.

Step S101: When the property maker receives a request from a customer to build and / or refurbish a property (for example, a house, a building, a tower, a wooden building, etc.), the property maker creates a drawing of the property and draws a drawing of the created property. Provide to logistics companies.

The drawing of the property directly or indirectly describes the components necessary to build and / or refurbish the property. For example, a drawing of a property contains information indicating the exterior of the property and the interior of the property (eg, living room configuration, system kitchen configuration, bathroom configuration, etc.). These pieces of information may be obtained from a database unit that stores information indicating the exterior of the property and the interior of the property.

When the logistics company receives the drawing of the property from the property manufacturer, it identifies all the parts necessary for building and / or remodeling the property based on the drawing and specifications of the property provided by the property manufacturer. The logistics company also prepares an estimation table containing information related to all the parts needed to build and / or refurbish the property. For example, the information included in the integration table includes, for each member, a member manufacturer that produces the member, an identifier for identifying the member (for example, a product number), specifications of the member (for example, color, dimensions, mounting position, etc.). ), Includes information indicating the number of the members. In addition, the logistics company may prepare a quotation for the materials required to build and / or refurbish the property based on the estimation table. For example, the information included in the quotation includes, in addition to the information contained in the estimation table, information indicating the cost and total cost of each member. For example, when the delivery of the parts to the site is planned to be performed in a plurality of times, the information contained in the quotation may be described in each of the plurality of deliveries. Alternatively, the information contained in the quote may include information indicating when each of the multiple deliveries arrives at the site. Here, each delivery unit may be approximated to the process unit of building and / or refurbishing the property.

Step S102: The logistics company orders the materials necessary for building and / or remodeling the property from the material manufacturer. If the necessary parts are in stock in the logistics company (for example, the necessary parts are in the warehouse of the logistics company), the logistics company does not have to order the necessary parts from the parts manufacturer. good.

When a parts manufacturer receives an order from a distribution company, it starts production of parts. The parts manufacturer informs the distribution company of the delivery date of the ordered parts before, at the same time as the start of the production of the parts, or after the start of the production of the parts.

The logistics company may provide the quotation to the material manufacturer in advance before placing an order. As a result, the member maker can grasp the type and quantity of the member to be produced in advance, and can start the production work of the member before ordering if necessary.

Step S103: When the component manufacturer completes the production of the component, the logistics company uses the transportation means owned by the logistics company (for example, a passenger car, a truck, a ship, an aircraft, a helicopter, a drone, etc.) to deliver the produced component. Collect from the parts manufacturer. The means of transportation of the logistics company delivers the collected parts to a predetermined place (for example, a major base where the collected parts are collected, located on the delivery route to the site (or near the delivery route)). do. Since the parts produced by other parts manufacturers are also aggregated at the main bases, the logistics company can collectively deliver the parts required at the site from the main bases to the site.

Step S104: The physical distribution company delivers the collected parts to the site by using the transportation means of the physical distribution company. The logistics company may use a trunk line flight, which has a high demand for delivery and a large delivery capacity, to deliver the collected parts to a PF (platform) near the site. By using such a trunk line flight, it is possible to efficiently deliver the collected parts to the vicinity of the site.

The predetermined place may be a site, for example, because the address of the member manufacturer that produced the collected member is close to the site. In this case, the produced parts are delivered directly from the parts manufacturer to the site by using the transportation means of the distribution company.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram for explaining a method for determining a method for a logistics company to determine the timing of collecting members A to F from a specific member manufacturer. In FIG. 2, a single horizontal line indicates a member to be delivered to site X, and a double horizontal line indicates a member to be delivered to site Y. In FIG. 2, the horizontal axis is the time axis.

The logistics company knows the delivery lead time, which indicates the standard time required to deliver each of the plurality of components to the site. Therefore, the logistics company aggregates a plurality of parts into a predetermined place in order to deliver each of the plurality of parts by the delivery date to the site based on the delivery date to the site and the delivery lead time. It is possible to decide if it needs to be kept. Delivery lead times exist for each site (or for each area where the site is located). In FIG. 2, the due date P indicates the due date for collecting the members to be delivered to the site X as the first flight (that is, the flight arriving at the site X first) at a predetermined place, and the due date Q is the second flight. Indicates the due date for the parts to be delivered to the site X as a flight (that is, the flight arriving at the site X second) to be aggregated in a predetermined place, and the due date R is the third flight (that is, the third flight to the site X). Indicates the date when the parts to be delivered to the site X as (the flight arriving at) should be collected in a predetermined place. However, the flight arriving at the site X is divided into three flights, the first flight, the second flight, and the third flight, which is an example, and is not limited to this. The number of flights arriving at site X can be any number of one or more. In addition, the number of flights arriving at each site may differ.

In addition to the delivery lead time, the logistics company keeps track of the production lead time, which indicates the standard time required from the ordering of each of the plurality of components to the completion of production. In FIG. 2, ● indicates the start time of the production of the member by the member manufacturer, and ▲ indicates the completion time of the production of the member by the member manufacturer. Therefore, the logistics company can determine the collection timing T before the due date P by a predetermined period in order to deliver the plurality of parts to a predetermined place by the due date P, and at the collection timing T, the collection timing T can be determined. The member A and the member B (inside the shaded area in FIG. 2) whose production is completed before the timing T are collected from the member manufacturer. In this way, the logistics company can simultaneously collect the parts to be delivered to a plurality of different sites from the parts manufacturer.

The production of the member E is completed before the due date P, but since the timing of the production completion of the member E is too close to the due date P, the member E is collected at the collection timing after the due date P and before the due date Q. To. Alternatively, the member E may be collected from the member manufacturer immediately before or immediately after the collection timing T. The member C and the member D can be recovered after the due date P and at the recovery timing of the due date Q. The member F can be recovered after the due date Q and at the recovery timing of the due date R.

For example, when the property is a house, the member is a building member of the house, and the site is a building site of the house.

In this way, since the logistics company knows both the delivery lead time and the production lead time, the multiple parts are placed in a predetermined place based on the due date and the delivery lead time when the multiple parts should be delivered to the site. It is possible to determine the due date (for example, due date P) to be aggregated, and determine the collection timing T based on the due date (for example, due date P) to aggregate a plurality of parts in a predetermined place and the production lead time. be. Further, the logistics company can efficiently deliver the plurality of members to the site by collecting the plurality of members at the collection timing T.

3. 3. Processing of the physical distribution management system FIG. 5 shows an example of a processing flow executed in the physical distribution management system 310. Each step shown in FIG. 5 is executed by the processor unit 311 included in the distribution management system 310. Hereinafter, each step shown in FIG. 5 will be described in detail.

Step S501: An integration table including information related to all the members required for the property is created. For example, the information included in the integration table includes, for each member, a member manufacturer that produces the member, an identifier for identifying the member (for example, a product number), specifications of the member (for example, color, dimensions, mounting position, etc.). ), Includes information indicating the number of the members. The information included in the integration table may be stored in the delivery lead time database unit 352 in a state associated with the information for identifying the property (property ID).

The process of step S501 may be automatically executed based on the received drawing of the property, for example, in response to receiving the drawing of the property from the property maker device ₃₃₀₁ . In this case, for example, the physical distribution management system 310 is configured so that information indicating a plurality of members required at the site (for example, member ID) can be read from the drawing of the property, and by reading from the drawing of the property. , Information indicating a plurality of members required in the field (for example, member ID) may be specified. Alternatively, the logistics management system 310 is configured to be able to read information indicating the exterior and interior of the property (for example, a decorative ID) from the drawing of the property, and by reading from the drawing of the property, the exterior and interior of the property and Information indicating the interior (for example, decoration ID) may be specified, and information indicating a plurality of members required in the field (for example, member ID) may be specified with reference to the decoration database unit 354.

Alternatively, the process of step S501 (for example, by operating the input unit of the physical distribution management system 310 by an employee of the physical distribution company) provides information (for example, a member ID) indicating a plurality of members required at the site in the physical distribution management system. It may be executed based on the received information in response to the reception via the input unit of 310.

After step S501, the processor unit 311 of the physical distribution management system 310 may prepare a quotation related to a plurality of members required in the field based on the integration table created in step S501. The quotation may at least state which component is required in what amount, the cost of each component, and the total cost. The processor unit 311 of the distribution management system 310 transmits this quotation to the component maker device 320 ₁ , so that the component maker of the component maker device 320 ₁ grasps in advance the types and quantities of a plurality of components to be produced. It is possible, and if necessary, it is possible to start the production work of a plurality of parts before ordering.

Step S502: A plurality of members required in the field are ordered from one or more member manufacturers. This process is executed, for example, to order a plurality of members described in the integration table based on the integration table created in step S501. Of the plurality of parts required at the site, only the parts that are not in stock need to be ordered. Which component manufacturer to place an order for may be determined, for example, by reading the manufacturer ID from the received drawing of the property (that is, in response to a request from the property manufacturer), or refer to the manufacturer database unit 353. Therefore, each member may be randomly determined from at least one member manufacturer that handles the member.

Step S503: A delivery lead time indicating a standard time required to deliver each of the plurality of members to the site is specified. The delivery lead time of each of the plurality of parts can be specified. This process is executed with reference to the delivery lead time database unit 352. The processor unit 311 of the distribution management system 310 refers to, for example, the delivery lead time database unit 352 to determine the distance and / or travel time between the site where the property is located and the predetermined location where a plurality of members are aggregated. Based on this, the standard time required to deliver each of the plurality of parts to the site may be adjusted and / or updated.

Note that step S503 may be executed at any timing prior to step S506.

Step S504: It is determined whether or not there is a required number of stocks of a plurality of members required at the site. This process is executed with reference to the inventory database unit 355, for example, based on the member ID. If the determination result is "Yes", the process proceeds to step S508, and if the determination result is "No", the process proceeds to step S505.

Step S505: A production lead time indicating a standard time required from the ordering of each of the plurality of parts required in the field to the completion of production is specified. The production lead time of each of the plurality of components can be specified. This process is executed with reference to the production lead time database unit 351. The processor unit 311 of the distribution management system 310 refers to, for example, the production lead time database unit 351 and inputs from one or more component manufacturers received from the component manufacturer device 320 ₁ (for example, the production start time of the component). The standard time required from the ordering of each of the plurality of parts to the completion of production may be adjusted and / or updated based on the input indicated and the input indicating the scheduled production completion time of the parts.

Step S506: Based on the production lead time and the delivery lead time of each of the plurality of components, the collection timing for collecting at least some of the ordered plurality of components from one or more component manufacturers is determined. .. This process may correspond to the process described with reference to FIG.

The processor unit 311 of the distribution management system 310 determines, for example, a due date for a plurality of components to be delivered to the site and a delivery lead time, and determines a due date for aggregating the plurality of components in a predetermined place. The collection timing is determined based on the deadline for consolidating the products in a predetermined place and the production lead time.

Step S507: At least one means of transportation α (eg, passenger car, truck, ship, aircraft, helicopter, drone, etc.) destined for one or more component manufacturers at the recovery timing determined in step S506 is assigned. As a result, at the time of collection timing, at least one transportation means α asks one or more member manufacturers to collect at least some of the ordered members from one or more member manufacturers. Head. The at least one transport means α then delivers at least some of the recovered components to a predetermined location (eg, a major location where the plurality of components are aggregated).
