Abstract
If we want that our companies meet criteria of future develepment trends of world economy, we must radically change, we can say, leave old principles of operating and management and acquire absolutely new models. Models BPR (Business Process Reengineering), that is a part of ITQM (Integrated Total Quality Management),in these tendencies are appearing to be very positive. So as to put these changes into practice, we need fully to know structure of organisation and internal progresses in organisation and management in context with external enviroment.Preparation for realization of reengineering processes requires detailed analysis of micrologistics of material flow in food processing company MECOM, a. s., Humenné too. This analysis in primary stage follows movement of basic raw material through particular departmetns of purchase, production and distribution, where it specificaly deals with these processes in looking at time, quality and quantity, based on a need to keep priority order.Logistic coordination and synchronisation of material flow, information flow and flow of finances,have an impact on company and can resolve conflict of partial targets of individual divisions which are very varied and often opposite.Entire synchronisation of these single aims isn´t possible, partial accommodation is achieveable only. The task of logistics in this company is to amend opposite partial aims, in priority order to achieve the one mutual target for all departments of company. This target presents total satisfaction of wants of consumers, achieveable by common fulfilment of performance and economical destination.
