“…Lindawati, van Schagen [8] investigates the factors considered by stakeholders to participate in urban logistics collaboration for Singapore. The survey was conducted by the focus-group discussion with senior industrialists and researchers in logistics industry, and six industry partners from the food, electronics, logistics, and retail sectors.…”

“…Government agencies have sought measures to mitigate negative effects caused by freight transport systems in their municipalities [3][4][5][6][7]. Private logistics service providers have endeavored to improve their operational efficiency to satisfy the heightened expectations of customers and to deliver products with shorter life cycles in a timely manner [8][9][10][11]. Meanwhile, the contribution of diesel trucks to air pollution in urban areas has increasingly been identified by researchers, resulting in efforts to reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT) for trucks in urban areas [12,13].…”

This paper estimates the environmental, social and financial effects of logistics collaboration of the existing logistics companies in Seoul, Korea. The truck routing models for collaborative and non-collaborative deliveries are proposed to estimate the collaboration effects. Findings show that both major and minor companies can benefit from logistics collaboration by saving delivery costs and time through economies of scale. The results from the study further indicate that logistics collaboration can mitigate negative environmental impacts resulting from urban logistics by reducing the number of delivery trucks, and shortening delivery times and travel distances. Discussion of related challenges that must be addressed during the implementation of logistic collaboration is included as well.

“…An effective conflict resolution process can reduce ‘campaign risks’ (Wood, ). Especially in uncertain environments – with new environmental regulations – a port's abilities to collaborate with multiple supply‐chain actors (Cheon and Deakin, ; Lindawati et al ., ) contribute to improving social legitimacy and reputation (Haddock‐Fraser and Tourelle, ) and future EP.…”

This study examines the mechanisms that shape relationships between port economic and social performance. Based on the concepts of organizational paradox and stakeholder heterogeneity, the study develops a paradox-stakeholder combination matrix to explain context-and issue-specific economic-social performance relationships. Differing economic-social performance links may vary with different stakeholders' roles in relation to ports' sustainable development issues. The empirical evidence from US ports provides crucial implications for quasi-public organizations, which face complex organizational identities.

“…However, the lack of stakeholder involvement -especially in the early stages of the decision making process regarding UFT -is considered as a major source of failure (Dablanc et al 2011;Dablanc 2007;Lindholm 2014;Lagorio et al 2016). UFT projects involve a large variety of stakeholders (i.e., traders, transporters, traditional couriers, innovative and "green" transport companies), usually with contrasting interests (Lindawati et al 2014). Even when all the relevant stakeholders are involved and their interests are aligned, stakeholders might not have all the correct information or skills to understand the nature and complexity of UFT problems, and they often overlook fundamental aspects (Lindholm, Behrends 2012).…”

An Assessment Framework to Support Collective Decision Making on Urban Freight Transport

et al. 2018

This paper proposes a framework that supports the collection and classification of information about the features of a city relevant to Urban Freight Transport (UFT). The information is organized in a framework of 28 different layers that are then stored in a Geographic Information System (GIS) tool to enable efficient data retrieval and effective information graphical display. The resulting GIS tool thus represents a decision support system for UFT problems, providing decision makers and stakeholders with a wide range of easy to understand information aimed to support the identification and preliminary evaluation of UFT solutions. Moreover, by providing a standardized set of features and sources of information, the framework enables the comparison of different cities. To illustrate the benefits, prototypical real-scale tests based on the framework have been realized in two mid-sized European cities: Bergamo (North of Italy) and Luxembourg. For both cities, data were mainly collected from publicly available sources and organized according to the framework. The data and information collected have been used in collaboration with the stakeholders in order to identify the priorities of intervention and evaluate alternative UFT solutions. The real-scale applications confirmed the usability and effectiveness of the framework in engaging stakeholders and support the process of envisioning shared UFT solutions.
