The system is complex and requires staff, funds, information, supplies, transport, communications and overall guidance and direction to function properly. These elements interact with each other and, as in the logistics system, there are uninterrupted physical, decision-making and information flows between its most important elements, which include: service providers, service recipients (patients), a payer (the National Health Fund), control and supervision institutions, the Ministry of Health. The Polish healthcare system is struggling with many problems, such as insufficient access to health services, inefficient system management, shortages of medical staff, or underfunding. The use of Value Stream Mapping (VSM) standards can significantly contribute to the improvement of logistics processes of the Polish healthcare system. The standards can be also used to improve the processes of treatment of other diseases, but also the functioning of healthcare units.The aim of the article is to present the possibility of applying Value Stream Mapping standards in the process of ischemic stroke treatment as the results of the project ‘Lean Management in Healthcare’, implemented by the consortium consisting of the Medical University of Warsaw, the Institute of Psychiatry and Neurology in Warsaw and the Polish Society of Health Economics, financed by the National Centre for Research and Development under contract no.

This study examines factors affecting consumers’ intention to use parcel lockers through the Unified Theory of Acceptance and the Use of Technology (UTAUT). This study proposed the mediating role of performance expectancy in the relationship between social influence and effort expectancy with the intention of adopting parcel locker services. An online structured questionnaire was employed and managed to collect data from 444 respondents. The non-probability purposive sampling technique was chosen as the sampling technique, while the SmartPLS version 4.0 analysed research data. The data found that performance expectancy and compatibility over consumers' intention strongly exerted the intention to use parcel lockers. For the mediator factor, the analysis uncovered evidence that performance expectancy can effectively mediate the relationship between social influence, effort expectancy, and intention to adopt parcel lockers. The research demonstrated the significance of the UTAUT model in pinpointing the reason for the parcel locker's adoption intention in Malaysia. The research findings could provide meaningful information to logistics businesses, courier companies, and relevant government bodies to design and implement strategies to enhance the acceptance and usage of parcel lockers as the last delivery option compared to home delivery.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"119 41","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139134241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective is to determine the major service quality characteristics that affect customer satisfaction for using e-hailing taxis in Johannesburg. Questionnaires were randomly distributed to 499 e-hailing taxi users in Johannesburg. This study identified and tested service quality dimensions relevant to passengers’ desire for a transport service. The study added safety and affordability to the traditional five service quality factors for analysis. The data collected were subjected to exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and regression. EFA identified reliability, tangibility, safety, and empathy as the major service quality factors for e-hailing taxis in Johannesburg. It was found that these variables significantly affect customer satisfaction with e-hailing taxi services in Johannesburg. A change in reliability will contribute about 19% to customers’ perception of e-hailing taxi services, 28% for tangibility, 15% for safety and 19% for empathy, respectively. The study indicates the importance of safety as a major service quality dimension of public transportation. It implies that e-hailing taxi operators need to pay attention to passengers’ safety with vigilance and appropriate safety measures.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":" 1031","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139136649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates the factors influencing the intention to provide cold warehousing service logistics providers in Malaysia. Employing a purposive sampling method, data were gathered via an online survey of logistics companies in Malaysia. 184 usable datasets were valid for further analysis. Owing to concerns regarding predictive purposes, structural equation modelling with SMART-PLS 4 was applied to test the hypotheses of this study. The analysis found all direct hypotheses were supported. The relationship between CEO innovativeness and intention, and government support toward intention, is positively mediated by organizational readiness. Meanwhile, cost failed to mediate the relationship between CEO innovativeness and intention. The study developed a new model with two mediators for a better understanding of the factors influencing the intention to provide cold warehousing services in Malaysia from the perspective of logistics providers. The findings will provide meaningful information for the government to craft a better policy to enhance the number of cold service providers.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136280573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The logistics industry generally contributes a critical portion of a nation's economy, so further study of the management effectiveness in logistics companies is essential. Any company requires a reliable workforce to function at its best. This research investigates some variables influencing employee engagement in the Indonesian logistics industry. The first variable is corporate governance; the second variable is internal control; corporate reputation is the third, where all these three are set as independent variables. The research also examines whether leadership style moderates the influences of the three independent variables on employee engagement. This study collected data research by distributing questionnaires to 742 respondents from 353 logistics firms. Statistical results came from the Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) method used in this study. The findings revealed that the three independent variables positively and significantly impacted employee engagement. The leadership style functioned as the moderating role in corporate governance’s impact and the corporate reputation’s effect proven in this research; in contrast, it did not apply to internal control’s impact. These results suggest that logistics companies in Indonesia can improve employee engagement by ensuring exemplary implementation of the three independent variables while adopting a leadership style that supports these efforts.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136341482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lowering this cost is vitally important for companies to stay competitive. Nowadays, storage systems are a critical part of any company’s logistic system, and many of them try to reach an optimum level where they can operate with little freedom of movement of goods declared by the changing market. There are several manual and automated methods to achieve this. However, we hear quite little about the use of artificial intelligence in the field. This study focuses on the implementation of AI technology into warehousing, especially in categorizing goods. After an overview of the recent literature on AI technologies and their application in the field of logistics, the introduction of an AI application follows. The main goal of the application is to categorize each good stored in a warehouse into ABC-XYZ groups, which determines the place of the good in the warehouse and the ordering frequency with the quantity. After acquiring and cleaning the training data from a real company, the determination and selection of the least input parameters is an important and challenging task, which is demonstrated. The effectiveness of the supervised learning can be seen as an ANN (artificial neural network) can output, with the aid of a non-conventional metaheuristic approach - the black hole algorithm - as the learning agent is demonstrated by an example, which also shows the result of an ABC-XYZ categorization run on a dataset from a multinational company.","PeriodicalId":36880,"journal":{"name":"Acta Logistica","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136280423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
