Proudly Serving Louisiana


Louisiana Logistics Software Since 1995

Integrated business solutions for the seamless movement of goods.

The term logistics comes from the Greek logos, meaning "speech, reason, ratio, rationality, language, phrase", and more specifically from the Greek word logistiki meaning accounting and financial organization.  Logistics is considered to have originated in the military's need to supply themselves with arms, ammunition and rations as they moved from their base to a forward position.

Louisiana Customers

Louisiana Flag

Some information I know about Louisiana is I believe the state was admitted or ratified to the United States around or about 'April 30, 1812'.  Louisiana is located around latitude '30.39183' and longitude of '-92.329102' and has a population of roughly '4,657,757 million'.  If I remember correctly the capital is 'Baton Rouge' and the largest city is 'New Orleans'. 

If you care to know, in ancient Greek, Roman and Byzantine empires, military officers with the title Logistikas were responsible for financial and supply distribution matters.

Case Study

Case Study

In 1995 New Breed needed a Systems Administrator.  In face they needed an IT Director, Help Desk and Developers.  They hired me to do all of this and more.  In 1995 New Breed had 6 locations nationwide.  They entrusted me to manage all software, hardware and him to build the network cabling backbone over ISDN segmented lines.  He also managed Progress 4GL programming on their Syman package as well as all of their HP-Unix and Novell servers.

"We really appreciate your hard work on the Progress Dump and Reload.  I personally know the long hours in the past 2 weeks you put into getting the system stable.  Let me take you to dinner to celebrate it being over."

If at any point you decide to reach to me just know the area codes I am familiar with for Louisiana are '225, 318, 337, 504, 985'.  For Logistics assistance you will find my rates very reasonable for Louisiana.  Now just keep in mind my time zone is 'Eastern Standard Time (EST)' and I know the time zones in Louisiana are 'Central Standard Time (CST)' in case you wish to call me.  Anyway let me continue.

The Oxford English Dictionary defines logistics as "the branch of military science relating to procuring, maintaining and transporting material, personnel and facilities." However, the New Oxford American Dictionary defines logistics as "the detailed coordination of a complex operation involving many people, facilities, or supplies" and the Oxford Dictionary online defines it as, "the detailed organization and implementation of a complex operation:" Another dictionary definition is "the time-related positioning of resources." As such, logistics is commonly seen as a branch of engineering that creates "people systems" rather than "machine systems".

When talking in terms of human resources management, logistics means giving inputs, i.e.  "recruiting manpowers", which ultimately work for the final consumer or to delivery.  Logistics typically is around an area though.

You know, I don't make it out to Louisiana much but I would like to see the 'Eastern Brown Pelican' state bird.  I am a little familiar with the Louisiana 'Magnolia' state flower as well.  However, I do not know much about Louisiana's state tree the 'Baldcypress'.  Fishing is fun to me perhaps I would like reeling in the Louisiana 'White perch' state fish.  Anyway, sorry I went off topic.  Let me continue.

According to the Council of Logistics Management, logistics contains the integrated planning, control, realization and monitoring of all internal and network-wide material-, part- and product flow including the necessary information flow in industrial and trading companies along the complete value-added chain (and product life cycle) for the purpose of conforming to customer requirements.
