Abstract:
The second part of this double e-book focuses once again on the growing number of organizations that are outsourcing select or entire logistics activities to Third Party Logistics (3PL) or Fourth Party Logistics (4PL) service providers, not merely as a means to achieve cost efficiency but also with a long-term strategic objective for creating competitive advantage through increased service and flexibility.
