Last-mile delivery (LMD) is one of the crucial phases of the shipping process. Since e-commerce rapidly evolves, there are many issues that should be addressed in city logistics. This paper specifically tackles the issue of Third-Party Logistics (3PL) provider selection for sustainable last-mile delivery. The 3PL selection problem has been solved for the e-shop company from Belgrade, which has online sales. The management of the e-shop company has identified five possible 3PL providers. Those five 3PL providers have been evaluated according to six criteria such as distribution cost, on-time delivery, flexibility of distribution, IT capability, good cultural fit, and customer satisfaction index. To evaluate and rank the 3PL providers, two multi-criteria decision-making methods were coupled. The first one is a Best-Worst Method (BWM) used to find the criteria weights, while the second one is a Combined Compromised Solution (CoCoSo) method utilized to rank the 3PL providers from best to worst one. To check the stability as well as the robustness of the applied methods, sensitivity and comparative analyses are performed. The results show high confidence in the applied methods.

Last-Mile Delivery (LMD) phase is essential in city logistics. However, it presents challenges due to the increasing number of vehicles and negative transportation effects. Sustainable city development requires smart LMD courier selection based on various criteria. This paper introduces a new subjective technique, called FullEX, for the criteria importance assessment. FullEX incorporates experts' opinions and their influence on the final decision, considering their reputation determined by education degree and experience. The application of FullEX focuses on assessing the importance of criteria for LMD courier selection. Such criteria are delivery service cost, on-time delivery, air and noise pollution, brand, and safety. Five experts participate in the evaluation procedure. However, this number can be adjusted depending on a certain problem. The FullEX method ranks on-time delivery as the most important criterion for sustainable LMD courier selection. In addition, the comparative analysis with the Best-Worst Method (BWM) confirms the results obtained by the FullEX method. Nevertheless, the sensitivity analyses demonstrate the stability of the FullEX and justify its introduction. Measuring the consistency index of the experts' judgment has also the advantage of this method. This proposed criterion weighting method is versatile, user-friendly, and applicable to any MCDM problem involving expert opinions on criteria.
