The Chair of Enterprise Logistics
The Chair of Enterprise Logistics (LFO) at the Technical University of Dortmund specializes in supply chain management and the management of Industry 4.0. To this end, we combine technology and management topics for the further development of companies and their future employees in the design fields of "people", "technology", "organization" and "information". An important goal and result of the research work at the LFO is the effective utilization of new technologies and feasible management solutions for practice in logistics, purchasing and production. Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Michael Henke has been full professor of the Chair of Enterprise Logistics since 2013.
