Dear readers! In September the CeMAT RUSSIA exhibition was held, which showed everyone that innovations and robotics are increasingly penetrating the logistics industry. We can safely say that many technologies are tested here, and only then they go out into the world. However, it is not only CeMAT RUSSIA that demonstrates the prevalence of the digital agenda.
In the article authors compare two fundamental approaches to order fulfillment. First one is traditional functional approach where «order management» is a logistics function. On the other hand, process centric approach considers “order fulfillment” like key business process in supply chain management. Researchers investigate typical problems in core steps of order fulfillment process and its key performance indicators. In the context of process centric approach authors suggest allocation of responsibility between main supply chain agents on strategic and operational level of “order fulfillment” process. Moreover, researchers identify coordination mechanisms on the main steps of analyzed process. In addition, they give comparative analysis of different approaches to efficiency evaluation of order fulfillment process.
Key words. Logistics, order management, functional approach, supply chain management, order fulfillment, process centric approach.
