Everything there is to talk about logistics and logistics flows has been said in the last 100 years. However, when researching the literature, looking for foundational elements of the structure that describes the passage of the logistics flow through the system and its components, although the "columns" and "foundations" of this construction are found, it can be seen from the logistics work a treatment of planning and control rather than physical management of the flow of materials, goods, services and operational information that is transparent in the processes of supply and distribution but that in production is assumed by this department. Assuming a systematic review of a historical-conceptual type, we seek to understand if this gap exists and the reasons why it is maintained, if it exists. If this is so, it becomes the starting point for studies that contribute to the solution of this apparent discontinuity and thus, give formal operational treatment to the Pipeline concept proposed by Bowersox.
