The definition of logistics is determined by integration of logistics functions. Various authors define logistics differently. There is probably no single correct definition of logistics. One option to define logistics is the Integrated management and control of physical and informational flows in time and space, starting with raw materials, production components, final products, including suppliers, manufacturers and end users. The word “logistics” and the principles applied by modern logistics date back to ancient times.
