港口企业开展物流金融业务的模式及意义

我国港口货物吞吐量和集装箱吞吐量已经连续多年居世界第一,但我国港口大而不强,还是以传统的仓储、搬运等物流活动为主,缺少增值服务,港口之间的竞争也越来越体现为其所在的供应链之间的竞争,因此发展融入港口供应链中的物流金融增值业务,是增强港口竞争力和盈利能力的重要途径.本文研究了物流金融概念,港口企业开展物流金融业务的模式及意义.     

基于DEA方法的物流园区投资方案决策

在物流园区面积既定的情况下,不同的投资方案,物流园区的经济性是不同的。但是物流园区投资和运营的特殊性,如寿命期很长、市场需求变化大等特点,问题变得比较复杂,使得用传统的技术、经济方法进行投资方案决策受到很大的限制。针对物流园区投资是一个多投入、多产出,长期的动态的决策问题的特点,提出将物流园区投资决策问题分成两个步骤进行简化,先利用DEA方法对物流园区经济性作静态分析,把物流园区效益问题转化为资源的利用率问题进行分析;再利用层次分析法综合考虑物流园区土地、资金等其它实际条件,判断出最终最优方案。     

数据包络分析在物流园区规划方案评价中的应用

物流园区是我国现代物流发展中出现的新生事物,许多省份和经济中心城市在区域物流发展规划中都提出规划建设若干物流园区。物流园区的投资效益评价是物流园区规划评价中的一项重要内容。本文根据物流园区规划投资建设具有多投入、多产出的特点,应用数据包络分析方法对物流园区的投资规模规划进行投资效益评价,以期找出非有效的投资规模规划方案,并对其进行有效性改进。     

区域物流线路网络双层规划研究

研究政府和运输企业、物流企业博弈情况下物流线路网络容量最优设置问题。运用系统分析和博弈理论,通过对政府从宏观角度进行物流线路网络规划、建设与管理,运输与物流企业从企业微观角度进行物流线路优化调度的目标与博弈过程研究,建立上层政府追求系统广义物流费用最小化,下层企业追求自身企业费用最小化均衡配流的两级Stackelberg模型,具体优化采用基于ANN的优化计算、非线性规划灵敏度分析和多目标决策置换率相结合的综合仿真,例子仿真计算显示采用双层规划进行物流线路容量最优设置思想方法的正确性与可行性。     

Foreland-based regionalization: Integrating intermediate hubs with port hinterlands

Development and changes in port hinterlands have received considerable attention as they represent substantial opportunities to improve the efficiency of global freight distributions. Port regionalization was a concept brought forward by Notteboom and Rodrigue (2005) to articulate the emerging port hinterland dynamics in light of containerization, supply chain management and the setting of inland terminals. This paper expands this concept by focusing on a particular dimension of the regionalization paradigm concerning the evolving role of intermediate hubs. It is argued that, in addition to hinterland-based regionalization, there is also a foreland-based regionalization where intermediate hubs capture a maritime hinterland. This intensity and viability of processes of foreland-based regionalization depend on multiple geographical, technical and market-related factors, and this paper identifies and analyzes these underlying parameters. By doing so, it assesses whether foreland-based regionalization is simply a transitional phase in port development or, alternatively, represents emerging functional characteristics of contemporary freight distributions.

Aligning the purchase of green logistics practices between shippers and logistics service providers

This paper explores shippers’ (i.e. logistics buyers) and logistics service providers’ (LSPs) perceptions of green concerns under diverse contractual settings during the key phases of the logistics purchasing process: request for proposal, negotiations, contracting and execution. Accordingly, it derives recommendations that could increase the actors’ inter- and- intra-organisational alignment on green targets throughout these phases. Empirical data are obtained from eight individual cases of three shippers and five LSPs, representing the buyer/seller roles within logistics arrangements. Contrary to previous literature holding the view that setting more green demands by shippers would guarantee green outcomes, the findings show that shippers’ green demands may hinder green logistics applications due to impediments to LSPs’ asset-sharing strategies. Also, a deadlock situation is revealed in the negotiations phase, where both actors await each other to introduce additional demands/offers—calling for further regulatory intervention to release this deadlock. Moreover, this paper shows how a mismatch of interests in contractual periods between shippers and LSPs can obstruct green investments—signalling that the green criterion is not the decisive factor in shaping shippers’ outsourcing strategies. The findings also stress a lack of follow-up efforts by shippers on green measures that were specified pre-contract, attributing this to contrasting intra-organisational objectives within shippers’ firms. This paper contributes to the green logistics purchasing literature by revealing how different contractual settings play an important role in shaping shippers’/LSPs’ perceptions of green concerns during the logistics purchasing process. Further, it is one of the first studies to provide phase-specific recommendations to increase the actors’ alignment on green targets.
