1 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The terminology “logistics” was first used in the late 19th century and for military purposes during wars. Since the 1950s, logistics have grown gradually from the simplest stage as first party logistics (1PL) to more complex stages such as third- party logistics (3PL) and fourth-party logistics (4PL) nowadays. To date, Asia Pacific’s logistics sector has been expanding rapidly together with economic growth; therefore the industry landscape of Vietnam’s logistics sector is teaming with both opportunities and challenges. The main drivers are the growth of GDP and import-export activities based on the upcoming Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) that Vietnam has joined recently. Inter Logistic Company is a small logistic firm with its head office located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. They have built a powerful workforce with more than 100 full time staffs and three members of Board of Directors (BoD), developed an official network in three big cities in Northern, Central and Southern regions of Vietnam. In reality, the high turnover rate at Interlog was increasing significantly in the last two recent years from 2013 till now from 20 to 27 percent out of total. Especially, the Sales Department is one of the most important departments at the company that accounted for 50% out of total. This rate is extremely high compared with the average rate in the same industry and it strongly affects the expansion and development activities of the company particularly before the Asean Economic Community (AEC) comes into effect and holds immense potential for the region in many aspects including logistics service starting in 2016. Indeed, the AEC allows the free flow of goods, services and skilled labor across 2 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com the region so that the competition has become even harsher than before in several industry sectors of Vietnam economy. After conducting research on various viewpoints of several people at different positions in the company by using in-depth interviews technique and collecting the secondary information from some reliable sources both inside and outside company. The author has noticed that there are some tentative problems that have directly affected the employees such as lackluster motivation and promotion, the ineffective internal communication between each other, and the heavy workload. Among these, the ineffective internal communication between Sales and Custom Department is the most serious issue because it comprises numerous causes such as inappropriate leadership style, shortcoming in the managerial skills of mid-level managers, poor working relationship etc. Hence, this dissertation has come up with two main objectives: critically review the vital factors that affect the high turnover rate of employees at Interlog Company and recommend solutions to solve the core problem in order to improve the entire organizational performance. All of these tentative solutions have carefully considered in three vital elements: benefits, costs and feasibility, then finally the most appropriate one is chosen to implement. In reality, the implementation plan breaks each solution into identifiable steps, assigns each step to one or more divisions and suggests when each step will be completed as well. 3 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Table of Contents EXECUTIVE SUMMARY . 2 LIST OF FIGURES . 6 LIFT OF TABLES .

VIETNAM’S LOGISTICS OVERVIEW 1.1 General Overview Nowadays, Vietnam’s logistics sector is expected to grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 27% from 2013 to 2020 with increasing 3PL – outsourcing needs from both existing and new multinational corporations as well. In fact, the 3PL industry in Vietnam is growing quick in terms of revenues and active firms, particularly in the Southern region. In addition, the 3PL revenues are projected to achieve 11.8 billion USD in 2020 with a CAGR at 25. Indeed, the number of 3PL members of Vietnam Logistics Association increased tremendously from four members in the period of 1994 to 1997 to 275 members in June 2014. Figure 1: Number of 3PL Members of Vietnam Logistics Association (VLA) 8 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Figure 2: The Growth Rate of Vietnam’s Logistics Market Logistics industry typically comprises of three key elements as the following: Infrastructure: ports, terminals, railway, and roads Operations: warehousing, storage, local distribution and trucking Services: freight forwarders and customs brokers The main objective of logistics is to move goods from their point of beginning to the point of consumption while conforming to customer requirements. Figure 3: Types of Logistics Service 9 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Among the above several types of logistics, the most common one is transportation (on the right-hand side), which occupies about 40% to 60% of logistics cost. Transportation can take the form of many combinations of modes and routes. Basically, there are five routes in worldwide: Table 1: Types of Transportations in Global Notably, Vietnam enjoys a good location within the region and is equipped with a huge transport infrastructure. As people may know, it has more than 3,000 kilometers of coastline, is situated nearby vital international shipping lanes; 49 seaports, classified in six groups according to their geographic location along the coastlines (Vietnam Marine Administration – VMA, 2013); and 206 thousand kilometers of roadways (GSO, 2012). Nonetheless, the quality of the transport infrastructure is still low compared with the good geographical condition. Vietnam was ranked 44th in infrastructure Logistics Performance Index (LPI), which is much lower than Malaysia (26th), China (23rd) and Thailand (30th). Additionally, in the “Global Competitiveness Report” of WEF, Vietnam was ranked low in terms of quality of transport infrastructure but did show a bit of improvements from 2012 to 2014. 10 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Table 2: Transportation Infrastructure in Vietnam 1.2 Limitations and Obstacles Presently, the World Bank assesses that the logistics infrastructure of Vietnam may be able to accommodate fast growth but there are still many limitations. The limitations come from the prevalence of unpredictability in the supply chains as follows: (i) Cumbersome and inconsistently applied government regulations (ii) Facilitation payments to avoid delay (iii) Isolation in planning and executing transportation infrastructure projects without considering supply – demand Despite several inefficiencies and weaknesses, Vietnam’s logistics are now becoming a major driver in the development of the nation’s economic development since Vietnam’s logistics cost occupies about 25% of GDP. It is expected to grow at a CAGR of 27% from 2013 to 2020, which is in line with the rising trend of GDP and import – export value. The establishment of the Trans-Pacific Partnership and other free trade 11 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com agreements such as the Vietnam – EU, NAFTA, and AFTA etc. coming into effect in the near future will serve to increase Vietnam’s international trade including the logistics sector. Nevertheless, 70% to 80% of the logistics market currently belongs to 25 big foreign companies among the 1,200 logistics companies that operate in Vietnam. Likewise, as some segments of the logistics market opens fully to foreign companies in accordance with WTO commitments; the growth opportunity for Vietnamese firms will narrow down significantly. In order to increase competitiveness as well as improve the capability of the logistics sector, the Vietnamese government has drafted a detailed master plan for each type of transportation mode and logistics services. It definitely takes time and cost to transform the master plan into the real life for Vietnam logistics firms. 12 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.1 Company Background Inter Logistic Company with its head office located in Ho Chi Minh City was established in August 2005.
