Abstract: At present, manufacturing processes require time accuracy in deliveries of parts and materials. This accuracy can be affected by many factors, two of which are road infrastructure quality and traffic volume between suppliers and manufacturing company. Every increase of traffic can lead to road infrastructure overcrowding, which may have impact on accuracy in deliveries of parts and materials. This article aims to delay time assessment at the intersections as the main factor of late deliveries in short distances.

Abstract: The paper deals with the process of assembling which is one of the most important process of store management. Activities related to the assembling and the way of this process organization and realization has significantly impact not only on the accuracy and completeness of consignments but also on the quality of created logistics units. The way of realization of the assembling process is closely associated with its effectivity and with total costs.

Abstract: The increase of individual car traffic causes that existing transport networks fail to meet the needs of road traffic in the means of capacity. One of the possible options for solving this problem is the construction of new communications. This solution is difficult to implement due to the high investment costs and possibility for further development. Therefore, one of the options for avoiding this problem is to make public urban transport more attractive, for example, through its support and preference. One of the main criteria in the quality evaluation of public urban transport is the transfer speed from origin to destination. This speed can be most noticeably affected by the use of public urban transport preference.This paper will discuss the analysis of passengers’ satisfaction with services provided by carriers of urban transport and the possibilities of public urban transport preference through the preference of public urban transport vehicles in reserved traffic lanes and on signal controlled intersections.

Abstract: Purchasing and utilizing the vehicles is an important element of corporate logistics in the transport companies. Novel trends and customer requirements in terms of range and quality of received services of the carriers have continuous increase. This paper discusses about aspects influencing the utilization the environmentally friendly vehicles, in other words the motivation for their purchasing, in terms of toll charges for transport and logistics companies in the selected countries. This could be one of tools to maintain competitiveness of the particular company in the market. The paper is focused on description of selected elements regarding the future of alternative drive systems as well.

Abstract: This article deals with the method used for classification of material in manufacturing companies. The aim of the article is application of ABC analysis in manufacturing company and finding some advantages and disadvantages. This method can be used in company which deals with production, transportation or in logistics companies. We choose ABC analysis for its application within one manufacturing company, which produce a lot of various components. The results of ABC analysis are strike in the article.

Abstract: Logistics plays an extremely important role in all production and non-production processesin almost every business company. Logistics is a key part of the strategy of each company and none of today's evolving market opportunities may not be used if the supply chain (or logistics) will not work effectively. And effective management of global logistics is certainly not inconsiderable step in the process to the target of each company, which is undoubtedly the maximum profit.

Abstract: The paper deals with the possibility of using knowledge from unconventional financing of bus transport as an innovative tool for cost reduction in logistics. The first part provides an overview of financing road transport including public passenger transport in Slovak republic (with dividing on railway transport, bus transport and urban public transport). Other part of paper describes option of using CNG fuel in suburban bus transport in particular company (SAD Zilina). Also this part contains economic comparison between diesel and CNG buses.

Abstract: The task of integrated transport system in passenger transport is connection between their other modes. One part of implementation of integrated transport system is set up the ticketing system for validation. This problem can solving by the ticket machines and their location. When ticket machines are located in vehicle, we create conditions for Self-Service System in public transport. The paper is focused on the description of factors, which influences number of ticket markers in railway passenger vehicles. For example these factors is circulation time of vehicles, transport distance, travel speed and etc. One part of paper includes the methodology of calculation the ticket markers for rail passenger vehicles.

Abstract: Every participants of the supply chain want to be maximally effective. That is possible only with quality forecasting of demand, because based on this forecasting is scheduled main production plan. It is very important to affect each factor which influences the demand. This article focuses with demand forecasting in the food industry which has a lot of specifics.
