Contract Design of Logistics Service Supply Chain Based on Smart Transformation

A logistics service integrator (LSI) usually requires a provider (LSP) to carry out smart transformation in order improve the level of service. However, LSP’s faces uncertainty terms investments and income, which seriously hinders enthusiasm for innovation. In this paper, we construct supply chain (LSSC) consisting an LSI LSP explore incentive mechanism LSPs undergo transformation. As benchmark comparison, first obtain equilibrium results under centralized decision making wholesale price (WP) contracts. Then, cost-sharing (CS), revenue-sharing (RS), cost sharing–revenue sharing (CS-RS) hybrid contracts are proposed. It is found that when CS coefficient certain interval, contract can increase profit service, but it will decrease LSP. With exception services decrease, RS WP remain consistent. Only CS-RS achieve perfect coordination LSSC. addition, by conducting numerical analysis, find enhancement effect encourage overall revenue To best our knowledge, paper study between context Our findings guide implementing effective contract.
