Year 2018
Published
Abstract For sustainable development in the fierce market competition, enterprises outsource non-core business to third-party logistics (3PL) providers. Choosing suitable 3PL providers can help enterprise improve core competitiveness and corporate sustainability. This paper combines traditional influencing factors and new ones under the concept of sustainable development to examine the choice of 3PL providers. Based on the review, relevant literature and the interviews with scholars and experts, it summarizes 15 influencing factors that affect choice of sustainable 3PL providers. Interpretative structural modeling (ISM) and MICMAC, including the hierarchy diagram and driving-dependence classification analysis chart, were used to analyze the influential factors. Based on this, the best practices in the process of selecting sustainable 3PL providers are proposed.
