Contemporary Challenges and Practices in Logistics and Supply Chain Management
This interdisciplinary open-access volume investigates the profound disruptions and operational adjustments experienced by global logistics networks and supply chains in the wake of recent global epidemics and humanitarian crises. Moving beyond conventional, fragmented approaches, the book blends insights from marketing, engineering, management, and transportation law to map out resilient, future-ready business strategies. Key thematic topics explored include supply chain predictive analytics, human resource constraints in transport, and sustainable or reverse logistics framework applications—such as eco-friendly supplier selection, risk management, and service quality control. Additionally, the text evaluates the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) sensors for real-time fleet asset tracking, evaluates company profitability indicators, and clarifies the evolving legal positions of freight forwarders. Ultimately, this collection serves as a vital analytical guide for researchers, logistics managers, and policymakers striving to position global trade around systemic digitalization and technological integration.
