This research attempts to classify the types of cooperation relationship between exporting firms and logistics firms from the more objective point of view. In order to fulfill the purpose of the research, the research figures out variables influencing the types of relationship and implement a cluster analysis and t-test. The results of this research are as follows. It shows that a variety of relations exist in exporting firms and logistics firms that differently take an effect on logistics output of exporting firms. Exporting firms, building active and comprehensive relations with their logistic firms, have achieved a better foreign logistics performance than exporting firms have not. In conclusion, as a result of conducting cluster analysis based on variables representing the relationships of firms, there is a meaningful difference in the types of performance and cooperation.

최근 기업들은 자사의 핵심역량을 극대화하기 위하여 배송업무를 포함한 물류업무를 전문적인 제3자에게 위탁하는 아웃소싱이 확대되는 추세이다. 특히 제조업체는 제품 배송업무의 아웃소싱을 다양한 형태로 추진할 수 있기 때문에 아웃소싱 계획단계에서 최적의 업무프로세스 모델링이 매우 중요하며, 자사에 맞는 아웃소싱 모델을 선정하도록 의사결정을 지원할 체계적인 접근방법이 필요하다. 본 연구는 배송업무 아웃소싱 현황을 조망하고, 배송업무 아웃소싱을 위한 고려사항과 업무절차를 배송전문업체 선정단계와 운영단계, 그리고 성과평가단계로 구분하여 제시한다.

The aim of this study is to present the importance of Risk Management and Risk Classification System in Supply Chain to cope with the rapidly changing distribution environment flexibly through the cooperation between a shipper and a distribution company. First of all, we considered existing studies related to the risks of Supply Chain Risk and analyzed 47 different risk factors by 18 kinds of risk causing factors. Second, we collected opinions of corporation specialist group based on the analyzed risk factors and then classified the risk factors into three categories and ten sub-categories. Third, we conducted a survey targeting shipping companies and distribution companies about classified risk and then verified the validity of Supply Chain Risk Classification using verification techniques such as Confirmatory Factor Analysis, Concentration Validity and Distinction Validity. Finally, we suggest some implications based on the verification results.

Recent trends in globalization and informatization underscore the importance of logistics. As a result, there is a need for skilled and specialized logisticians. Third Party Logistics (TPL) and Supply Chain Management (SCM) require logisticians with a broad base of knowledge in areas such as multimodal transport, international trade, information technology computers, finance, operations management, etc. This study conducted a survey to find out the opinions of demanders and suppliers. The results of the surrey show that there are more skilled logisticians in the field of management, computer works in manager level and system management. The survey also found that the certificate exam, which the Ministry of Construction and Transportation started in 1997 as the "Certified Logistics Manager" exam, should have more questions in areas such as foreign languages, computers, logistics information, management skills, etc. To produce better logisticians in Korea, the government will have to invest more into their education, especially near the major ports and metropolitan areas. In addition, it is important that universities and companies work together to provide students with internship and other field-experience teaming opportunities. Logistics education centers should be built at the national level. In addition, the existing certification should be divided into two separate certifications: one for ordinary logistics, and one for international logistics. To further improve the certification system, short-answer or essay questions should be added to the second exam, and an additional certification for the highest level logisticians, a so-called "professional logisticians certificate," needs to be introduced.ntroduced.

As the economic volume and trade in North-East Asia have dramatically increased, the competition for dominance over the value of logistics among many developed countries has taken a new turn. The Korean government has been planning a strategy for a north-east asian logistics hub in order to increase the global competitiveness of manufacturing companies by promoting a logistics industry. However, the competitiveness of Korean logistics industry is still quite premature compared to global competitors. Taking these accounts into considerations, this study advocates that the structure of Korean logistics companies should be changed from the function of furnishing simple logistics to extending integrated logistics services. It should also shift its focus from executing domestic logistics to meeting international logistics demands and from an execution-focused service to a knowledge-intensive service. The purpose of this study is to explore effective methods for stimulating an integrated logistics industry. Some detailed guidelines and economic interpretations, based upon the results of this research, have been suggested for supporting the related legislation.

In order for Busan New Port to secure more trading volumes than the competing ports at home and abroad, an alternative plan for the new port management policy needs to be sought. By the way, aiming to minimize trial and error while maximizing effect in establishing and driving the new port management policy, there is necessity of referring to the developmental strategies of the advanced ports such as Singapore and Hong Kong that are possessing the globally leading position as well as maximizing the substantial value added and the employment-creation effect even qualitatively. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to propose for a reasonable development strategy for Busan New Port in line with conditions and characteristics of Busan New Port by comparing and analyzing conditions and characteristics of these two advanced ports and by comparative analysis on the developmental strategy according to this.

This paper's object is to study the Advanced Foreign's Third Party Logistics Trend & View at Global Logistics Times. So, I analysed the Advanced Foreign U.S. & EU and the results are as follows: First, a growth in the number of outsourcing relationships has contributed to the development of more flexible organizations, based on core competencies and mutually beneficial longer-term relationships. So, the development of logistics relationships has brought mixed results. Across many industries, logistics outsourcing is a rapidly expanding source of cost savings, competitive advantage, and customer service improvements. Thus, it appears that Third Party Logistics(TPL) concepts could be useful in meeting the goals of the 1ogistics function. Second, the field of logistics and supply chain management is becoming strategically important. At the same time, it is becoming increasingly complex because of the rapid advances in management methods, e-commerce, technology, and enabling information systems. However, Third Party Logistics provider, many a times, lack broad set of skills, integrating technologies, strategies and global reach. So, Fourth Party Logistics(4PL) is the next significant evolution in supply chain outsourcing. 4PL delivers a comprehensive supply chain solution, and delivers value through the ability to impact the entire supply chain. The 4PL industry is likely to grow as more companies use e-commerce at Global Logistics Times.

With the change of various business environments, needs for the third party logistics(3PL) service are strategically considered for securing core competitiveness of manufacturers in China. Thus, manufacturers not only have worked with 3PL service providers for cutting costs of logistics, but also they are willing to have Win-Win relationship with the 3PL service provider. In this paper, comparing situation and characteristics of both China and developed-countries, especially in the particularity of manufacturing companies in China. The most important thing is that 3PL service providers must be able to manage supply chain of manufacturers with logistic planning abilities and to operate logistics services with logistic infrastructures and IT systems. In the view of long-term development, incubating logistics specialists is also the influencing fact that makes 3PL service providers more competitive with high quality logistics service and infrastructures.
