Logistics paper Question one Service level ensures the organisations have enough stock for a specific period. It is a point where the sales managers get an alert that more stock is needed. Uncertainty is a state of being unpredictable. Safety stock entails an extra amount of the stock that is purchased to cater for uncertainties such as stock out (Dubelaar, Chow & Larson, 2001).  An order quantity refers to the number of products a supplier is directed to bring to the company. The four elements relate to each other. For instance, organisations increase the safety stock when the service levels go below the expected point. This helps a firm to cope effectively in a competitive environment (Benton, 1991). When safety stocks and order quantity are well done, the service level goes up.
