Outsourcing and Supply Chain Management Quality and Supply Management Logistics and Transportation Systems

Abstract

The increasingly competitive and deregulated environment for domestic logistics is forcing firms to reexamine private provision of logistics services. Domestic logistics services may increasingly be provided by third party logistics companies, as they are in the international logistics realm. This paper reports results of an exploratory review that compares the influence of key forces that drive the logistics outsourcing decision in the domestic and international setting. The results of this review are used to develop propositions for future research and suggest an agenda for empirical testing. Results should influence strategies pursued by providers and purchasers of third party logistics services.
