国外物流成本研究前沿及进展——一个文献综述

国外物流成本研究主要关注微观企业物流层面的实证研究。相关研究主要集中于供应商选择策略、企业物流/配送系统设计、库存/仓储订货及优化策略、运输策略/路径选择、物流设施规划/选址、逆向/回收物流规划等专门领域,充分反映出国外物流成本研究的实用性倾向。研究表明,国外现有研究成果散落于各个学科和问题领域,建立一个系统性的理论研究框架具有重要意义。

A Literature Review on the Frontier and Progress of Logistic Cost Researches

Through a literature review,it is found out that the researches on logistic cost in other countries mainly focus on the empirical study at the level of micro enterprise logistics.Related researches concentrate on the supplier selecting strategy,the design of enterprise logistic and distribution system,the inventory and warehouse ordering strategy and their optimization,the choice of transportation strategy and transportation routing,the layout and location of logistic facility,reverse and returned logistics planning,and other specific areas.This fully indicates that the logistic cost researches in other countries are pragmatic-oriented.However,it is also found that current research results in foreign countries fall into different disciplines or areas.Therefore it is of great significance to establish a systematic framework of theoretic research.
