Increasing competition as a result of globalization forces companies to focus on the core activities they are specialized in and to use outsourcing in areas other than these core activities. Companies seek to outsource their logistics functions partially or completely since this is not in their main field of activity. Thus, companies are faced with the problem of choosing a Third Party Logistics (3PL) service provider that can contribute to their sustainable development and perfectly perform the logistics activities. In this study, the 3PL selection problem of a cable manufacturing company is discussed. The study aims to solve the business problem and to show the applicability of Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) methods in the most appropriate 3PL selection problems. The 3PL selection was made in line with the criteria and alternatives determined by a team of decision-makers working in the relevant department of the company. First of all, the weight value of each criterion was determined by using the SWARA method based on the MCDM method. This method was chosen because it takes group decisions into account and is easy to implement. Afterward, calculations were made according to the criteria levels of each alternative service provider with the WASPAS method. In the study, 12 criteria were determined by the decision-makers. Besides, 5 different 3PL companies were taken into account. According to the results of the study, it was the third 3PL that met the criteria at the most appropriate level.

El planeamiento estratégico forma parte del proceso estratégico que hoy en día es llevado a cabo en la mayoría de las organizaciones públicas o privadas, se trata de la acción de proponer un objetivo y el camino que se debe seguir para lograrlo; este proceso contempla 3 etapas: Formulación, implementación y evaluación; la etapa en la que el Planeamiento estratégico se desarrolla es la Formulación, esta etapa es determinante, ya que se trata de plasmar lo que se va a implementar; y es este punto en el que casi todas las entidades de la administración pública fallan, sin una idea clara de lo que se quiere lograr para empezar, es poco lógico pensar que se alcanzará el objetivo propuesto. El objetivo de la investigación es determinar el impacto del planeamiento estratégico en la administración pública reportado en investigaciones empíricas relevantes. La revisión sistemática de literatura permitió identificar 48310 estudios de bibliotecas digitales como Web of Science, Scopus, ProQuest, Wiley Online Library, Taylor & Francis Online y EBSCOhost, de los cuales fueron seleccionados 60, estos ayudaron a responder las 4 preguntas de investigación planteadas. La RSL ha concluido en una tendencia en cuanto a las investigaciones sobre el Planeamiento estratégico y su efecto en la administración pública. La presente investigación contribuye a comprender las diferencias y similitudes de los estudios considerados, y se sugiere considerar una mayor cantidad de estudios que incluyan un mayor rango de años.
