Any above-mentioned problems may cause consumers prohibitive and lost the stores’ sales opportunities. The main purpose of this study is to investigate how e-commerce companies can change the process to improve the quality of logistics. The study will review the related literatures from the drivers of change to the change process including planning, analysis, design, and implementation, and finally the change results and measure to change results. As e-commerce logistics has r far-reaching effects, its internal processes and external competition has become more evident, Therefore, this study hopes to explore, from a case study, how the logistics bottlenecks can be resolved by business process reengineering.
