Popis: |
This chapter describes and analyzes how logistics service providers (LSPs) differ in the resource management decisions they make to gain competitive advantage in a rapidly changing and uncertain business environment. The resource-based theory of the firm and dynamic capabilities are employed as a theoretical backdrop. Using archival data, the authors find that four case LSPs structure and bundle their resource portfolios to build capabilities, which they leverage to create and maintain value for their customers. Leveraging strategies employed by the LSPs are influenced by their environmental contexts, leading to different strategies and performance levels among the firms. This research enhances understanding of the constructive impact that resources and capabilities can have on the performance of LSPs. |
