The seven Rs of logistics contain the main goals of logistics , which are constantly expanding with the ongoing development of lean manufacturing and Industry 4.0 . This is why the term 7R + was coined.

The R stand for each an aspect of logistics , the right (engl. Right ) must occur.

At the beginning of this millennium, logistics essentially concentrated on four basic elements.

So should

  1. the right product
  2. in the right condition (e.g. quality)
  3. in the right time
  4. in the right place (or with the right customer)

be available.

With the reduced vertical range of manufacture in lean manufacturing, the importance and control of logistical processes in industrial production continues to increase.

So far, the four Rs mentioned have been expanded to 6 R or 7R by specifying additional goals :

The

  • correct amounts
  • the right cost and
  • the right information

added.

These other goals are based on lean manufacturing, which u. a. aims to minimize storage volumes . Since the same value is swapped, generally increase the procurement cost and the need, all the logistic processes in so-called ERP systems information map stechnisch.

With Industry 4.0 and in particular the Internet of Things , logistics are subject to new requirements, which are described by 7R + and which keep future extensions open. In particular, the importance of

  • correct packaging

continue to increase, which has so far been partially covered by the categories right product and right quality . Correct packaging includes small load carriers , pallets , containers, etc. These will be increasingly intelligent (smart) in the future, e.g. B. by using RFID or smart cards , and independently communicate data such as the current location and information on the type and quantity of the content and the destination of the delivery. The packaging will thus contribute to the correct information category .
