Answer to Question 1

Traditionally, the term measure was used to denote any quantitative output of an activity or process. Today, the term metric is being used more often in place of the term measure. A measure is easily defined with no calculations and with simple dimensions. Logistics examples would include units of inventory and backorder dollars. A metric is more complex to define and usually involves a calculation or a combination of measurements, often in the form of a ratio. Logistics examples would include inventory future days of supply, inventory turns, and sales dollars per stock-keeping unit. An index combines two or more metrics into a single indicator. Usually an index is used to track trends in the output of a process. A logistics example of an index is the perfect order.
