“…Some other works such as (DeLoach and Matson, 2004), (Krauth et al, 2005) and (Xu and Zhang, 2005) have looked at modelling organization using the notion of agents roles, goals and indicators; in distinction to our work, they do not capture the binding between the human and his/her tasks, these models fail to take into account the human perspective, thus is human in the loop, as it is a key element in any concrete application.…”

This paper describes a comprehensive multiagent based modelling approach for collaborative and dynamic organizational roles support. The method is a role centred one, where agents collaborate to assist human users through collaboration within the same role, with other roles of the same team, as well as roles of different teams that share tasks dependencies. Agents in the system are not restricted by predefined schemes they can join and/or leave the coalition. We identify the key elements of the role model as rules, agents, and relationships. Our role model integrates both the operational functionalities and the performance management towards specific goals, the former involve human individuals in the loop, whereas the later are performed by software agents to assist in monitoring, control, and adaptation of the performance in dynamic organizations.

“…To adopt the most optimized logistics outsourcing strategy adapted to each company’s operations, a number of key logistics performance indicators are used to measure logistics performance. A taxonomy of logistics performance indicators has been developed by Krauth et al and covers all logistics activities (Krauth et al , 2005a, 2005b). Figures 2 and 3 group all these KPIs according to two perspectives of performance: an internal perspective from the point of view of the 3PL’s manager and employees and an external perspective from the point of view of the 3PL’s customer and civil society:…”

Purpose The aim of this research is to underscore the pivotal role of warehouse management in the current turbulent global landscape exacerbated by the confluence of a health crisis and geopolitical instability in Europe. In today's interconnected global economy, the turbulence of the global supply chain causes a lack of its resilience among companies. Facing this critical crisis context, companies are refocusing on business processes and outsourcing support processes such as logistics. In this paper we have empirical and methodological objectives. Methodologically, we employ a qualitative research approach utilizing action research in a collaborative framework that involves academics and practitioners. The purpose of this methodology is to empirically investigate warehouse outsourcing as a solution for enhancing a company's performance and agility within the crisis context. Design The authors’ action research based on case study approach is conducted through an immersion within the ALCL French multinational company located in Morocco. The authors mobilize the theory of constraints, which allows us to set up a process of identification and optimization of managerial constraints (Goldratt, 1990). The approach allows to set up a retroactive loop to increase the performance of the constraint. Findings The study shows that ALCL has a storage over-dimension constraint due to the decrease of physical flows caused by the global crisis. The results of action research protocol show that the optimization of warehousing constraint is achieved by the total outsourcing of the process. Originality The study provides new insights into how action research can improve management practices within companies and explore concrete solutions to the logistical challenges faced by businesses.

“…The performance indicators are used as the basis for assessing the performance in planning stage, implementation and thereafter. Determination of logistic performance indicator needs to be investigated in order to fulfill the main objectives of logistic assessment which are cost reduction, capital reduction and service improvement (Krauth, 2005).…”

Logistic issues are still become a serious matter for Indonesian society. This problem should be seriously considered by Indonesia. Many sectors that support logistic growth should be arranged properly in order to increase the value of performance of logistic in Indonesia. Agriculture sector is one of the sectors that has important role in national development integration. Unfortunately, production growth for this sector is still relatively low compared to some other sectors with value 1.85%. One of the agricultural sectors in Indonesia was palm oil plantations that produces cooking oil. Currently, Indonesia was suspected by having problems on the cooking oil distribution. Cooking oil distribution margins are tending to increase, while margin is one of the efficiency indicators in distribution system. The increasing of distribution margin indicates that the distribution of the commodity is inefficient. Thus, we need to improve efficiency and effectiveness in all logistics activities. The issue is, what are the relevant indicators to manage the logistics of cooking oil in an effort to improve the efficiency and effectiveness. Determination of performance indicators can be done by getting the opinion and consensus of the experts who understand the logistics of cooking oil. The method used is the Delphi method that will integrated with fussy method. The method is called Fuzzy-Delphi method.
