dc.description.abstractThis study aimed at examining logistics management amongst telecommunication industry in Uganda. The study population comprised 40 employees who are responsible for logistics planning, ware house management, freight management. Given the small nature of the population all the 40 staff was studied. The respondents were selected using simple random sampling. Self-administered questionnaires were used to collect responses and measurements were done, subjected to vigorous data processing and analysis using statistical package for social scientists (SPSS). The results revealed that the majority of the respondents agreed about the average use of logistics planning and ware house management and few disagree about Freight management practices applied by Uganda Telecom Ltd in the management of logistics. It was recommended that Logistics management focuses on the organization as a whole and not on individual units and departments while deciding about the allocation of resources. The resources may be in the form of men, machines, materials, money and time. Logistics management helps in the efficient use and deployment of the scarce resources. In absence of effective logistics management, there will be a depletion of various meager resources.en_US
