Six-R rule
The " six R rule " or " The 6 R of logistics " describes the so-called logistical task:
- the right material
- in the right time
- in the right place
- in the right amount
- in the right quality and
- at the right cost
The six-R rule was coined by Reinhardt Jünemann .
Since there is no uniform or generally applicable definition, there are isolated modifications of this rule. The 7-R rule with the addition of the target “to the right customer” is also widespread. In many cases, there is also a restriction to fewer than six goals (e.g. the right product at the right time in the right quality in the right place) under an adapted designation (4-R rule).
The goals of logistics are becoming increasingly demanding. That is why we now also speak of seven R or even 7R +.
