CAPSLOG: 'Capitalizing on collaboration in sustainable
logistics in food and flower chains’
Prof. dr. Jack G.A.J. van der Vorst

NWO, 21 Januari 2015
Case 1: SuperUnie – 13 retailers
• How can SuperUnie members’ supply chains best benefit from each other?
• What is the ultimate potential of horizontal collaboration of the member
chains, and vertical collaboration with suppliers and LSPs?
• How should costs, investments and benefits be fairly distributed?
• Can we create a consolidated transport flows database of all SuperUnie
members in the Netherlands that facilitates collaboration opportunities?
• What are the hurdles and benefits for members to participate?
Case 2: Flower supply chain
• How to make new collaboration concepts work?
• How to identify key collaboration partners and how to get them involved?
• What type of collaboration model and collaborative logistics concept is most
effective in improving sustainability performance of perishable products?
• What value can collaboration on sustainability bring?
Research questions
1. Performance assessment:
What are the relevant and important key performance indicators for measuring
efficiency, responsiveness, product quality and sustainability in fresh chains and
how can these indicators be assessed in an integral way, to make choices
between various network design structures?
2. Sustainable logistics collaboration concepts:
What are relevant sustainable collaborative logistics concepts for perishable
products, and what are the potential performance improvements in general, and
sustainability effects specifically?
3. Performance improvement via collaboration:
What are bottlenecks and drivers for effective collaboration concepts and how
does an ideal collaboration consortium looks like? How can collaboration and
improved sustainability be translated into value for customers?
Research objectives
Development and assessment of sustainable collaborative logistics
concepts, i.e. the joint logistics distribution network, the collaborative logistics
planning and control system, and the (horizontal and vertical) collaboration
formats.
Instruments are needed to assess these concepts collaboration models and
formats, hence, a toolbox will be developed comprising:
● diagnostic and benchmarking instruments to judge the current
performance on the different performance indicators
● decision support models to determine trade offs between all four
indicators of costs, quality, service and sustainability,
● performance and incentive models that provide guidelines to
practitioners to assess the value of (cross chain) collaboration efforts
and how to organise collaboration in and between chains effectively.
Contribution and impact
Using longitudinal case study approach, dedicated modelling efforts and
possibility to test modelling outputs to real life pilot results, we …
Identify successful collaborative logistics concepts
Improve people-planet-profit indicators for both cases
Unravel performance hierarchy and interaction effects in a network
Identify the value of collaboration and sustainability efforts in specific context
of agri-food sector
Focus on transition towards sustainable logistics concepts using real life pilots –
making it work – and show it works !
