摘要

许多在线企业都在努力优化最后一英里配送成本,通过实施旨在通过自动化或协作降低成本的配送模式。要成功实现这一目标,说服消费者采用具有成本效益的最后一英里配送模式势在必行。然而,有关消费者对不同配送模式的态度的证据并不多,而且目前对造成消费者态度差异的原因也不甚了解。基于对电子食品行业专家的定性访谈,我们确定了消费者对最后一英里配送模式态度的潜在驱动因素。我们通过实验对这些驱动因素进行了测试,发现与定时当面递送相比,隐私问题完全调节了消费者对上门递送和车库内递送态度的差异。此外,我们还发现有证据表明,在选择送货模式时存在隐私计算。因此,除了降低客户风险外,提供附加客户价值也是鼓励消费者采用更具成本效益的 "最后一英里 "送货服务的可行方法。

Identifying and testing drivers of consumers’ attitude towards last-mile delivery modes

Identifying and testing drivers of consumers’ attitude towards last-mile delivery modes

Many online businesses strive to optimize last-mile delivery cost by implementing delivery modes aimed at cutting costs through automation or collaboration. Convincing consumers to adopt cost-efficient last-mile delivery modes is imperative to successfully achieve this goal. Yet, evidence on consumers’ attitude towards different delivery modes is scarce and causes of differences in attitude are currently not well understood. Based on qualitative interviews with e-food industry experts, we identify potential drivers of consumers’ attitude towards last-mile delivery modes. We test these drivers experimentally, finding privacy concerns to fully mediate differences in attitude of in-home and in-garage delivery when compared to timed in-person delivery. In addition, we find evidence indicating the presence of privacy calculus in delivery mode choice. Next to reducing customer risk, providing added customer value could therefore be a viable approach to encourage consumer adoption of more cost-efficient last-mile delivery.

期刊介绍: The Internet and the World Wide Web have brought a fundamental change in the way that individuals access data, information and services. Individuals have access to vast amounts of data, to experts and services that are not limited in time or space. This has forced business to change the way in which they conduct their commercial transactions with their end customers and with other businesses, resulting in the development of a global market through the Internet. The emergence of the Internet and electronic commerce raises many new research issues. The Electronic Commerce Research journal will serve as a forum for stimulating and disseminating research into all facets of electronic commerce - from research into core enabling technologies to work on assessing and understanding the implications of these technologies on societies, economies, businesses and individuals. The journal concentrates on theoretical as well as empirical research that leads to better understanding of electronic commerce and its implications. Topics covered by the journal include, but are not restricted to the following subjects as they relate to the Internet and electronic commerce: Dissemination of services through the Internet;Intelligent agents technologies and their impact;The global impact of electronic commerce;The economics of electronic commerce;Fraud reduction on the Internet;Mobile electronic commerce;Virtual electronic commerce systems;Application of computer and communication technologies to electronic commerce;Electronic market mechanisms and their impact;Auctioning over the Internet;Business models of Internet based companies;Service creation and provisioning;The job market created by the Internet and electronic commerce;Security, privacy, authorization and authentication of users and transactions on the Internet;Electronic data interc hange over the Internet;Electronic payment systems and electronic funds transfer;The impact of electronic commerce on organizational structures and processes;Supply chain management through the Internet;Marketing on the Internet;User adaptive advertisement;Standards in electronic commerce and their analysis;Metrics, measurement and prediction of user activity;On-line stock markets and financial trading;User devices for accessing the Internet and conducting electronic transactions;Efficient search techniques and engines on the WWW;Web based languages (e.g., HTML, XML, VRML, Java);Multimedia storage and distribution;Internet;Collaborative learning, gaming and work;Presentation page design techniques and tools;Virtual reality on the net and 3D visualization;Browsers and user interfaces;Web site management techniques and tools;Managing middleware to support electronic commerce;Web based education, and training;Electronic journals and publishing on the Internet;Legal issues, taxation and property rights;Modeling and design of networks to support Internet applications;Modeling, design and sizing of web site servers;Reliability of intensive on-line applications;Pervasive devices and pervasive computing in electronic commerce;Workflow for electronic commerce applications;Coordination technologies for electronic commerce;Personalization and mass customization technologies;Marketing and customer relationship management in electronic commerce;Service creation and provisioning. Audience: Academics and professionals involved in electronic commerce research and the application and use of the Internet. Managers, consultants, decision-makers and developers who value the use of electronic com merce research results. Special Issues: Electronic Commerce Research publishes from time to time a special issue of the devoted to a single subject area. If interested in serving as a guest editor for a special issue, please contact the Editor-in-Chief J. Christopher Westland at westland@uic.edu with a proposal for the special issue.
