Abstract

In this master thesis the procurement process in the Company X in Kosovo and their associated logistics costs are discusses. Based on the analysis the rationalizations of listed logistics procurement process are set as the primary goal in this thesis. In the firs part of this master thesis are presented opening remarks. In second part we show the basic concepts of the logistics enterprises; In the third part of this paper the results are presented that were obtained on the basis of: • Systemic approach to capturing spatial - temporal transformation of material goods and the costs incurred through all parts of the company within the procurement process, • The selection of the dominant group on the basis of material goods via Pareto-ABC analysis. The Fourth part presents the results that were obtained on the basis of: • Selection of reference lines delivered with the introduction of its own fleet, based on the Pareto-ABC • Analysis of the selection of transport routes (routing) based on the method of "pendulum" • The procedure for the

determination of transport capacity, where the number of vehicles count on the basis of transport requirements (c1) and the ability of the transport fleet (Wq). After ABC analysis is conducted for the purpose of gradual introduction of company own fleet, in those directions where delivery is generating the highest transport costs and determine the costs that would occur during the formation and operation of company own fleet for a period of twenty years has led to the following conclusions:

• Distinguished funds to transport milk by someone else (leased) fleet annually: 403465.58 [euro] • Distinguished funds to transport milk using company own fleet at annual level: 238772.15 [euro]. The difference in segregated funds before and after implementation of the proposed measures, on an annual basis, is 164693.42 [euro] or 40.81 [%]. The total logistics costs before the intervention were: 521415.32 [euro], and then after the intervention they are: 356721.89 [euro], representing a decrease of 31.59 [%]. By applying appropriate methods, mention above, for analysis of the current situation an insight is given into the complete process.As we presented above, after the process of improving the current situation was made, a comparative review of the cost price of existing and improved conditions and on the basis of these data an approach in giving the final considerations has been made. As an end result a reduced logistics costs, and successfully carried out rationalization process of Inbound Logistics appeared.
