“…This strategy is barely implemented in current practices. According to Rouquet and Vauché (2015), this type of pooling is known as District pooling, and leads to a more collective and stronger supply chain.…”

From 2010, the health transportation in France has become one of the top ten priorities of the risk management plan due to the increasing cost of these transports. For social and Medico-Social Institutions (MSI), this cost represents the second-biggest expense after that of the wages. In this context, the NOMAd project aims to improve the daily transportation service for people with disabilities between their home to MSI. To this end, we performed a field survey to identify the needs of the different stakeholders. This survey allows us to propose the transportation pooling among several MSIs on one side, and a global transport management process on the other side. This process makes possible to group and optimize routes on a given geographical area. The challenge is then to improve economic performance while maintaining social and environmental goals. A decision aiding tool for the transport optimization is proposed to tackle this problem.

“…to achieve the personal objectives such as reducing logistics cost and the environmental impacts and increasing efficiency. Several key factors are needed to implement an efficient pooled system; generally, these factors are linked to the presence of resources, motivation and specific capabilities [14]. A high collaboration among stakeholders is compulsory to manage and move forward pooling; in other words, agreement and commitment of all involved stakeholders are essential to achieve a successful pooled system [10].…”

“…Pooling integration not only has the same difficulties as the city logistics initiatives' implementation but also requires more organizational planning and consideration. In the literature, authors have focused on overall problematical aspects [10,14,19], nevertheless to integrate pooling in the city logistics system with regard to the system complexity and the inevitable interconnectivity of actions, more information and knowledge about the logistics and transportation system are requested; therefore, the objective of this study is to bridge this gap by providing profound analysis of the city logistics system and its processes. The first step is to identify and analyse the current status, to gather needed information in order to diagnose actual system.…”

City logistics comprises all freight transportation and distribution activities in urban areas and aims to raise the prosperity of a city while mitigating the negative externalities. Hence, resources scarcity and the need for large investments on initiatives implementation have driven researchers toward collaboration as a promising solution. In conjunction with this, pooling has been emerged as a systematic collaborative solution which is defined as the mutual and contemporary use of resources while all involved stakeholders have direct influence on decision making during the whole process. To this end, a comprehensive approach is required to explain how pooling is achievable in urban area. For this reason, this article focuses on the development of a general framework to discuss required steps to integrate pooling into the city logistics system. This framework includes two main parts: the first part contributes to diagnose the current status of the system while the second part discusses organizational planning steps for the three strategic, tactical and operational level. Furthermore, in the first part of the framework we propose a new concept, Typology of Flow (ToF), which is presented to study the main elements of the city logistics system and consequently, the urban flows with more attention into details. The information provided by this concept will help to choose the most compatible solutions for pooling integration in city logistics.

“…Another study used the intended approach of this research to identify and develop a theoretical understanding of pooling strategies in LSCM [27]. This research aspired to consider an extensive number of case studies to extract a typology and, therefore, used secondary data case studies to achieve a reasonable depth of research effort.…”

Abstract:In the context of logistics, blockchain can help to increase end-to-end visibility along global supply chains. Thus, it can lead to improved tracking of goods and offer tamper-proof data to build trust among parties. Although a variety of blockchain use cases already exists, not all of them seem to rely on blockchain-specific features, but could rather be solved with traditional technologies. The purpose of this paper is, therefore, to identify characteristic use cases described for blockchain in the field of LSCM and to analyze them regarding their mindful technology use based on five mindful technology adoption principles: engagement with the technology; Technological novelty seeking; awareness of local context; cognizance of alternative technologies; and anticipation of technology alteration. The authors identified five blockchain case clusters and chose one case for each category to be analyzed in detail. Most cases demonstrate high engagement with the technology, but there are significant differences when it comes to the other mindful use principles. This paper highlights the need to understand the problem and to apply the right technology in order to solve it. When solving a problem, care should be taken to address a technology's unique features to ensure effectiveness and cost-efficiency.
