“…Likewise, JIT often reduces lead-time in production, stock levels, and holding costs which are directly linked to EC SMEs' operational performance (Mistry, 2005). Furthermore, previous research suggests several advantages of logistics outsourcing that include operating cost reduction, service level enhancement, core competence prioritizing, and capital cost lessening (Liu and Lyons, 2011). Particularly, EC SMEs can utilize logistics outsourcing to leverage economies-of-scale and knowhow that cannot be obtained singlehandedly, given their small scales and insufficient resources to run effective logistics systems.…”

“…For example, Ellinger et al (2008) used variables such as increase in personnel efficiency through the years and increase in market share, whereas Wang et al (2010) used operational variables such as customer service, delivery speed, and delivery reliability. Lai (2004) has used variables related to services such as assisting customers to solve problems, efforts shown in emergency cases, and assessing customer complaints, while Mothilal et al (2012) and Liu & Lyons (2011) used financial and operational performance variables. Karia & Wong (2013) used variables which are directly related with logistics services such as better services, greater percentage of on-time and accurate delivery, quick responses, more unique solution, more satisfied with the service level, more additional service, lower facility cost, lower distribution cost.…”
