“…The reporting and waste management systems related academic studies research area has been shown an increase in publication numbers basically just for the last year or so. This finding certainly indicates the lack of work and clear research gap in the topic area and is well in line with a similar gap found by the previously mentioned studies in the warehouse management systems sector [38]. The found 28 studies had 93 unique authors, from which only Christensen contributed more than one publication.…”

Inspired by previous studies research gap findings and limitations in management system functions to produce sustainabilityrelated reporting authors set a goal to map the current academic literature in the context of waste management systems. The method chosen for the work was a systematic literature review, focusing on the Web of Science and Scopus databases. The authors found a total of 115 unique publications from the selected databases, which were filtered 28 contributing studies. With these studies, this study found that most of the publications are journals and almost half of the work has been published in the last 3 years. Additionally, sustainability and waste management reporting related literature seem to enjoy wide appreciation among the peers, indicated by a high number of references these publications had gathered. As an overall finding, the specific research area of waste management process quantified data reporting seems really young overall and needs additional research with multiple research gaps clearly waiting for follow-up research to pinpoint the specific areas to contribute in the near future.

“…The aim of this research was to build on the path of previous research [36][37][38] painted by indicating research gaps in clearly a large global emission contributing sector. If so obvious area as logistics has shortages of literature in sustainability reporting, what is the case in the waste management sector itself?…”

“…The parameterisation of each of these algorithms, such as the degree of autoregression in auto.arima, hidden layers in nnetar or smoothing parameters in ets, directly impacts the results of the forecasts. The data for prediction are drawn from the warehouse management system (WMS) and transport management system (TMS), systems that are generally already implemented in logistics companies [82][83][84], which, to some extent, demonstrates the adaptability of the proposed tool to a wider group of companies. Data gathered from WMS and TMS systems are crucial for forecasting.…”

This article addresses the key and current issues of smart cities in the context of last-mile supply management. Specifically, it explores how third-party logistics (3PL) activities impact last-mile delivery management in smart cities. It examines how 3PL affects delivery volumes, expanding the predictive capabilities of logistics operators. A research question included in the Introduction of this paper is also posed to explore the problem in depth. The research conducted focuses mainly on a case study conducted on the operations of an international 3PL logistics operator. In addition, predictive methods are used to analyse the shipment volume data for individual barcodes in the two analysed cities in Poland. Currently, the concept of a smart city assumes the limited participation of logistics operators in creating improvements for cities. The case study analysis shows that in the cities studied, 3PL companies, through predictive actions, can regulate the flow of vehicles out of the logistics centre and into the city, thus influencing the traffic volume in the city. The research is limited to two cities in Poland implementing smart city solutions and one logistics operator. The research also does not include e-commerce. The authors acknowledge that the results obtained cannot be generalised to a larger scale. This paper bridges the research gap on 3PL activities for last-mile logistics improvements. In addition, the paper proposes the first concept related to the implementation of a 3PL company’s predictive activities associated with the operator’s ability to control the impact on urban traffic.

“…Various jobs might be carried out within the same warehouse at various levels (Minashkina and Happonen, 2020). Outstanding operational performance at the warehouse typically implies that a company can operate more effectively than its rivals (Shah and Khanzode, 2017;Sharma and Shah, 2015).…”

This paper examines the relationships between three logistics activities: customer service, warehouse management, and distribution activity on business performance. The research adopts a quantitative research approach. A survey was utilized to assess managing logistics activities and business performance and evaluate the created research hypotheses. The author tests the hypotheses with a sample in Nawras Company in Erbil with SmartPLS version 4.0 to evaluate and process the data. The results show that the three logistics activities positively related to business performance. The research guides logistics managers in understanding how logistics activities enhance business performance. This research is one of the scholarly works to uncover the logistics activities performed by the company rather than outsourcing logistics activities for enhancing business performance in the Kurdistan region of Iraq.
