Analysis of Linkages between Logistics Information Systems and Logistics Performance Management under Uncertainty

چکیده
Logistics performance management has received more attention by government and organizations in recent years as it becomes the critical success factor of the supply chain. The study of logistics performance management in this paper aims to analyze dimensions and relevant factors of logistics information system (LIS) usage that affects logistics performance management under uncertainty. A survey was conducted on distribution activity and applied Technology Acceptance Model to extrapolate the intention to use LIS. Exploratory factor analysis and ANOVA were employed to examine the association among the dimensions that influent on LIS usage. A case study was taken from a large household product firm whose business survival depended on logistics performance. We analyzed various logistics activities to determine the associativity among these activities. As such, related linkages can be established for subsequent logistics performance monitor and improvement. Summary of findings and future work are reported.

An optimization model for management of empty containers in distribution network of a logistics company under uncertainty
In transportation via containers, unbalanced movement of loaded containers forces shipping companies to reposition empty containers. This study addresses the problem of empty container repositioning (ECR) in the distribution network of a European logistics company, where some restrictions impose decision making in an uncertain environment. The problem involves dispatching empty contain...

متن کاملInnovative Logistics Management under Uncertainty using Markov Model
This paper proposes an innovative uncertainty management using a stochastic model to formulate logistics network starting from order processing, purchasing, inventory management, transportation, and reverse logistics activities. As this activity chain fits well with Markov process, we exploit the very principle to represent not only the transition among various activities, but also the inherent...
