Very possible to apply and customize it to your context... No logistic process resembles another and thus simply means the uniqueness of each logistic process triggers a project procedure

Logistics and supply chain often fit an operations model where there are regular processes with a continuous stream of inputs and outputs. The two most common types of projects I personally find in these environments either focus on the processes as new or revised products, or revisions to the products managed by operations processes.

Process improvements, new functionality, and new/upgraded office systems are a common source of projects which focus on efficient repeatable activities. Another common source is improvements to the products moving through the business systems. Supplier part cost, flow time, and error reduction activities are common to capture the aggregate benefit of many incremental improvements over extended timeframes.

As I mentioned in other of your post I think is not about PMP, is about project/program/portfolio management. Just to comment, I was in charge to do that in several companies in different niches of the market including it I was part of the first experience to create something that today is called blockchain for IBM for a hugh logistic company.

I do agree with Sergio - "it is about project/program/portfolio management."

My project management experience in the supply chain arena covers:
• New product and a new business process rollout
• Phase-out programs (products)
• Supplier Development Programs
• Value Engineering projects/programs
• Operational Excellence projects/programs
• Inventory rationalization
• New Technology Deployments - ERP
• Acquisition (two companies with different supply chains)
• Sustainability projects
