A Logistics Project Manager’s Role

Achieving the above benefits depends on how well supply chain experts use project management to improve performance.

To help make this easier, the following describes the role of a project logistics manager.

A logistics project manager is a business expert whose primary objective is to manage any assigned logistics and supply chain projects. They introduce the project management framework and apply it to business operations. They also develop business processes, implement continuing education, and assess projects’ risks.

• Supervise the transportation of goods and services
• Schedule and oversee the supply chain management activities
• Manage warehouse and transportation staff
• Resolve supply chain issues and customer-related complaints

The role of a logistics project manager includes the following:

• Define and implement procurement procedures. A logistics project manager should establish a framework defining how to manage competing demands and make decisions. This person should also create a process for identifying and vetting suppliers.
• Emphasize transparency. Transparency is essential for a supply chain project manager to ensure accountability when outcomes don’t meet expectations. It also creates an environment that fosters the exchange of ideas and solutions.
• Optimize processes. Logistics and supply chain project managers should continuously analyze working procedures to identify areas of improvement. They should then develop a strategy for improving the company’s procurement efficiency.
