LOGISTICS AND OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT 2
Deal and demand for transport have a linked partnership. To satisfy the need for
shipping, intermodal transport must be able to fill the supply dependency. Based on the form
of a mode utilized and the capacity to meet demand both in terms of quantity and funding,
transport service networks can, in several cases, vary (Tucker, et al., 2018). The movement
of passengers is primarily by air and by sea. Demand depends on the customer's choice, year,
age, ethnicity, and sales. I decided to travel with my four families eight hours at a younger
generation rather than traveling at the budget expense of a trip and then hire a vehicle at the
venue. Arrived in a crate, my home hold products were packed, transported via ground to a
port, and loaded into a freight, wherein less than 30 days they arrived in Korea. It is not quick
transportation, but it can hold more freight than air travel. Including the community, for
example, mobile calling and financial operation scale, educational levels, and standards of
living, is a feature that allows the knowledge attributes to shift. That kind of correspondence
is utilized every day by individuals. The market for telecommunications from teleworking to
video chatting for personal and professional use in a move and communicating knowledge is
increasing steadily, as it has developed into something more than telephone calls (Vuchic,
2017). My device is based in Korea. Due to geographical isolation, holding a face to face
meeting can be challenging. The unit utilizes video phone calls to get us together in a
chatroom and connect or meet in person when traveling for a train or vehicle. Through this
capacity, members will also get a physical talent without needing to drive away.
Role of Transport on an Economy
Transport plays an essential role in the growth of the economy. First, it has led to
increasing in infrastructure. High-density transport infrastructure is related. This is made right
by the shipment of commodities to reach citizens from different places with different
consumption needs (Pfurtscheller & Genovese, 2019). However, heavy machinery shipping
goods need a well elaborate system of road, pipeline, or air links. This creates a need for a

well-developed infrastructure system. Many industries are a contributive factor in the
development of infrastructure in the facilitation of safe and sound delivery of raw materials
and finished goods.
Without a well-established transport system, logistics could not have many advantages. A
sound transport system in logistics could lead to the provision of better logistics efficiency,
reduce operation costs, and enhance service quality. A good operating logistics system
increases the competitiveness of both the enterprise and the government. The role of transport
in the logistics system is more complicated than the transportation of goods by the owners
(Koh, et al., 2020). It can only function by high-quality management despite its complexities.
The products should be delivered to the right location at the right moment to satisfy the
consumers' needs by way of a well-handled distribution network. It is successful and also a
bridge between suppliers and customers. It provides a bond. Transport thus forms the
foundation of production and productivity in the area of company logistics. Therefore, a
robust organizational transportation network supports not just the standard of operation but
also the profitability of businesses.
