Abstract
| |
| Competition around the world is increasing dramatically with the growth in manufactured trade volumes and the multitude of suppliers of comparable products. Indonesia has long relied on trade for its growth and job creation, and has been able to compete internationally in a wide range of products. Buyers around the world are increasingly focusing on reliability of supply and order cycle times, not only for high-value goods and perishables, but also for medium and low value goods where large-scale wholesalers and retailers seek to minimize inventories and reduce the risk of overstocking, while ensuring product availability. This is an area in which Indonesia can make significant progress by reducing lead time for producers importing raw materials. The inbound supply logistics performance is a key contributor to competitiveness by reducing transaction costs. There is no consensus on the definition of logistics, but it typically includes the following key elements: (i) infrastructure: ports, terminals, railways, and roads; (ii) operations: warehousing, storage, local distribution, trucking, and cabotage; and (iii) services: freight forwarders, and customs brokers. The objective of such activities is chain and shipping products (the outbound supply chain), as well as by increasing reliability in meeting fixed delivery times. The Logistics Performance Index (LPI) aggregates the performance in customs procedures, infrastructure quality, ability to track and trace shipments, timeliness in reaching a destination, competence of the domestic logistics industry and the ease of arranging international shipments. In Indonesia, competence of the local logistics industry (both private and public logistics service providers such as road transport operators, customs brokers, etc) and timeliness of shipments in reaching destination are key bottlenecks in Indonesia's logistics performance. The LPI also shows that: a) logistics infrastructure (ports, roads, warehouses) is weaker than in Singapore, Malaysia, China, and Thailand; b) the rate of physical inspection at customs is substantially higher than neighboring countries, causing uncertainty; and c) review procedures (for conflict resolution) are complex, causing delays and uncertainty. |
