Abstract
The paper makes a distinction between management tasks which are associated with day‐to‐day operations in the distribution field and tasks which can be grouped under the title of planning and control. The first are concerned with tactical problems, usually on a short time scale, the fatter concentrate on strategy. The use of management science and the computer in some of these problems is briefly discussed.
