To address those challenges, five information services, named as access management services, are identified that can mobilize interorganizational information flows to achieve effective terminal and transport processes. In those processes, previous research has examined the effects of such services only in the access phase, that is, when containers are loaded and/or unloaded, leaving out the potential effects in the pre- and post-access phases. Consequently, the purpose is to clarify how the five identified access management services can affect activities and resources for all three access phases in the terminal and transport processes. Two empirical studies were performed: a prestudy, which involved 30 observations to identify terminal and transport processes in a seaport terminal, and an improvement study, which involved eight interviews and four focus groups to explain how the processes can be managed effectively. Access management services that can exchange information in real time can perform and utilize the activities and resources in all three access phases effectively. Namely, with the services, effective loading and unloading require fewer movements, drivers, administrators, controllers and less container lifting.","PeriodicalId":46529,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44367025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, less is known about the existence of a vertical reputation commons among supply chain members. The purpose of this consumer-centric study is to examine the spillover effect of an upstream incident in the supply chain on consumer perceptions of a retailer's reputation and consumer repatronage intention. Specifically, this study explores two factors that may impact consumer perceptions: location of the incident within the retailer's supply chain and the severity of the incident. Study 1 tests the spillover effect on the retailer's reputation and repatronage intention using a two-tier supply chain and two relative extremes of severity. Study 2 examines how a retailer through messaging could dampen the spillover effect following an upstream incident. Our findings provide insight regarding when and how consumer perceptions regarding a retailer's reputation may change following an incident in the retailer's supply chain and how those perceptions can be influenced by effective messaging. Collectively, our results offer initial theoretical insights into the concept of a supply chain (vertical) reputation commons.","PeriodicalId":46529,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46043250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, locks and dams that enable traffic flows through the waterway system are aging and causing disruptions frequently, bringing considerable financial damages to shippers. Cost of the major system rehabilitation is estimated to be over $1 billion, and the prospects for getting such a large funding from the government are bleak. Public-private partnership (PPP) based on the conventional business model that requires collecting end-user fees to provide revenue to the participating private firms has been proposed, but not implemented due to the regulatory barriers that forbid the collection of user fees. This study proposes a new PPP business model that does not require collecting user fees. This model seeks to attract funding from shippers in exchange for reducing their financial losses due to frequent system disruptions. We describe the model concept and examine its effectiveness by performing a series of analyses that combine analytical, econometric, and simulation techniques. Results show that the proposed model is not only viable, but also financially attractive to shippers if the invested amount is optimal, allowing them to reduce supply chain disruptions considerably while also achieving sizable investment returns.","PeriodicalId":46529,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42876734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In \"A Framework for Transportation Decision Making in an Integrated Supply Chain\" (Supply Chain Management: An International Journal 5 [2]: 71–77) T. P. Stank and T. J. Goldsby proposed an original transportation decision-making framework to address the need. The framework is cited over 250 times in the academic literature and referenced by firms seeking to optimize cost-service tradeoffs in an environment characterized by higher levels of market freedoms, service innovation, and supply chain collaboration. Since the year 2000, though, the digital revolution, customer expectations, and supply chain resilience concerns have given rise to new demands for transportation decision-making, with operations residing in a hyper-integrated and further globally entrenched state. Therefore, we revisit Stank and Goldsby's original framework to review major transportation decision areas and devise contemporary mechanisms to address the modern business environment. Our framework highlights the rapid and interdependent nature of today's corporate transportation decisions to help firms tackle current business needs and long-term strategic interests. We also seek to illuminate prospective avenues for research endeavor.","PeriodicalId":46529,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70918945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These tradeoffs exist because contract freight provides loose volume guarantees but lower linehaul rates, whereas spot freight commands higher linehaul rates while being more stochastic in nature. The issue of carriers’ mix of spot market and contract freight, while of utmost importance in practice, has received limited theoretical and empirical attention. Drawing on dynamic transaction cost theory, we develop middle-range theory that explains why carrier traits such as size and use of team drivers as well as characteristics of the freight markets in which they are embedded impact carriers’ reliance on spot market instead of contract freight. To test our theory, we rely on archival survey data collected by CarrierLists, a firm that specializes in compiling and disseminating motor-carrier information. Our econometric estimates corroborate our theory and remain after robustness testing. Apart from extending theory regarding dynamic transaction costs, our findings have important implications for carriers, brokers, and shippers.","PeriodicalId":46529,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2022-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44890573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
