Abstract:

With the rise of the gig economy, crowdsourcing has gained traction in many industries. This study examines the untapped potential of crowdsourced last mile delivery (CSLMD) in the express courier industry. Crowdsourcing is a critical facet given the rising demand for cost-effective, efficient, and sustainable last mile delivery (LMD) solutions. The escalating costs associated with LMD increase the imperative for effective management. As an evolving solution, crowdsourcing has found acceptance among various LMD stakeholders, notably in e-commerce; however, the same cannot be said for the expre

Abstract:

E-commerce has been growing in Sweden over the years. It has not only contributed to economy, but also has shaped people’s way of living, especially with the service of home delivery. Consumers enjoy the various choices of products with reasonable prices and the convenience of receiving parcels with a single click on the mouse or by using their phones. Meanwhile, the problem of not-at-home and repeated delivery have caused trouble for both consumers and logistic service providers leading to an increase in delivery cost. Therefore, it takes a lot of cooperation and innovations to come up with s

Abstract:

When a package is shipped, the customer often requires the delivery to be made within a particular time window or by a deadline. However, meeting such time requirements is difficult, and delivery companies may not always know ahead of time which customers will need a delivery. In this thesis, we present models and solution approaches for two stochastic last-mile delivery problems in which customers have delivery time constraints and customer presence is known in advance only according to a probability distribution. Our solutions can help reduce the operational costs of delivery while improving

The understanding of what motivates a customer to pay more for a product or service has al-ways been a fundamental question in business.

It has been a common practice within the commercial airline and hospitality industries for over 30 years, allowing adopters to reach their service capacity with increased proﬁt margins.

Most deliveries use fossil fueled vehicles, and this is problematic for the environment, society and the economy.

Abstract:

Con la presente ricerca si pone in essere uno studio sulla dimensione del business del Retail, mediante un approccio teorico al quale sono stati correlati alcuni casi aziendali. Negli ultimi anni, l’evoluzione dello spettro di abitudini del consumatore, con la rapida diffusione delle tecnologie di rete, ha richiesto alle aziende di attuare approcci e strategie nuove ed integrate per il raggiungimento del successo aziendale. L’analisi dei segmenti di clientela ha dimostrato come l’avvento di Internet abbia inevitabilmente generato impatti sia sulla vita delle persone sia sul modo di fare imp

Abstract:

I veicoli a pilotaggio remoto, o più comunemente droni, stanno sempre più prendendo piede in una società che non ha più tempo per l’attesa e desidera tutto nel minor tempo possibile. Grazie alla loro versatilità, alla loro facilità di controllo e al loro prezzo accessibile, anche i più grande player logistici hanno iniziato ad intravedere in questi mezzi un modo per diminuire i costi, aumentare il livello di servizio e cavalcare allo stesso tempo l’onda dell’avanzamento tecnologico portato avanti dai principi dell’industria 4.0. All’interno dell’ottica supply chain, i droni hanno la capacità d

We have conducted a study that is intended to investigate and understand how logistics companies in city logistics handle increased e-commerce challenges and describe what actions they take. To be able to do that, two question formulations have been formulated that goes: “What challenges, caused by an increased e-commerce, exist for logistics companies within city logistics?” and “What are logistics companies doing to address the challenges that exist and that are caused by increased e-commerce?”. Further is the theoretical frame of references presented where challenges and innovations for log

This thesis deals with light utility vehicle design (class N1). Apart from designing vehicle’s appearance, other goals such as finding suitable usage of this electric vehicle type or adapting design to user’s needs and new technologies available were set. Usage of light e-van as a last mile delivery vehicle is proposed and following design process takes this purpose into account. Reasoning behind determining decisions is also given in this thesis. Final design stands out with original shaping, while possibilities of colour and graphics make it easily distinguishable among other vehicles. Desig

E-commerce is in a growing phase where consumers are getting more aware, picky and comfortable when it comes to delivery of their packages. This case study investigates the requirements that consumers have regarding last-mile deliveries as well as various digital logistic solutions that may meet these requirements. In the study, relevant people in three different companies working with delivery, have been selected to get a deeper insight into how companies view consumers' new requirements and how they work to meet these and how they reflect about the future when it comes to last-mile deliverie

Abstract:

Cette thèse vise à améliorer la résolution problèmes de transport en intégrant des contraintes liées aux infrastructures urbaines dans des algorithmes basés sur les données. Nous nous concentrons sur deux défis contemporains : la livraison du dernier kilomètre et la planification d’un système de transport à la demande. Pour le premier défi, nous nous intéressons à l’apprentissage de fenêtres de temps multiples. Pour ce faire, nous utilisons des algorithmes de type multiarmed bandit. Les résultats montrent que l’apprentissage permet d’obtenir des itinéraires plus réalistes et plus efficaces. Co

Le rôle du planificateur est crucial pour assurer le respect des exigences du client et la pérennité de l'entreprise de transport. Plus que construire un planning faisable, le planificateur doit sélectionner, parmi plusieurs plannings possibles, celui qui assure la meilleure efficience des ressources de l'entreprise quelles que soient les

Dans cette thèse, nous étudions les problèmes de tournées de véhicules dans le contexte de la livraison du dernier kilomètre lorsque plusieurs options de livraisons sont proposées aux clients. Le mode de livraison le plus commun est la livraison à domicile ou au travail. La livraison peut également être effectuée dans des points de collecte tels que des consignes ou des magasins. Ces dernières années, un nouveau concept appelé livraison dans le coffre / dans la voiture a été proposé. Avec ce mode de livraison, les colis des clients peuvent être livrés directement dans les coffres des voitures.

Lower operational cost and capital investment, as well as delivery flexibility, are the main advantages of crowdsource delivery when compared to the conventional LMD. Positive results of integrating crowdsource delivery into the LMD have been reported in terms of delivery cost, service level, and environmental impact. This study investigates the delivery plan of LMD in a collaboration with the crowdsources as one of the delivery options. The crowdsources provide d

Abstract:

<p>The rise of technologies and the Internet have provided opportunities to connect logistics demand and supply using the crowd. In this system, named crowd-shipping (CS), a requester doing the shipping selects a courier via a platform. In reality, the idea of CS has been explored by many firms over the last several years. However, there is a lack of fundamental understanding of the issues related to: (1) the markets that are likely to be influenced by CS; (2) the considerations that govern the success of this system; and the (3) the impacts of CS and its design.</p><p><br></p> <p>To address
