Research on the Impact of Logistics Outsourcing Collaboration Relationships on Logistics Efficiency in Small and Medium-sized Enterprises

Abstract

With increasingly fierce market competition, logistics outsourcing has become an important strategic choice for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to reduce operating costs and enhance core competitiveness. However, in practice, although many SMEs have carried out logistics outsourcing, they often face problems such as insignificant improvement in logistics efficiency and unstable service quality. This paper takes SMEs as the research object, analyzes the current state of their logistics outsourcing collaboration relationships, and uses questionnaire surveys and factor analysis to identify four core influencing factors: outsourcing contracts, information communication, outsourcing control, and logistics collaboration capability. It further analyzes the mechanism by which each factor affects logistics efficiency, providing a reference for SMEs to optimize their logistics outsourcing collaboration relationships and improve logistics efficiency.
