Critical evaluation of the role of analytics for decision making in global logistics systems and services.

ASSESSMENTQuestion: Critical evaluation of the role of analytics for decision making in global logistics systems and services.Task/Assessment Brief: Contemporary logistics systems and services across logistics businesses are globally driven big data and analytics. Critically evaluate the role of the analytics for decision making across the global logistics systems and services (e.g. warehousing, inventory management, location analysis, costing (tariffs, taxes), policies, reverse logistics and multi-modal transport).Referencing You are to use the Harvard Referencing system throughout your work.
