  • First we provide an overview of how virtual enterprise works, including the lifecycle of a virtual enterprise, expected benefits from a virtual enterprise, and various types of collaborative networks. Next we focus on a problem encountered in the port logistics industry and suggest that implementation of a virtual enterprise can be a good solution to the problem. Then we suggest a prototype of the virtual enterprise in the port logistics industry and a freight transportation process as a business process in the prototype. And then we introduce major functions of the business process management system (BPMS) which, in general, can be regarded as a tool to create the virtual enterprise. Finally by adopting a specific BPMS, we illustrate how to design and implement the freight transportation process in the prototype.

  • This paper aims to explain the reasons of manufacturing's reshoring (U-turn) and to suggest the supporting law and policy and the utilization of enterprise architecture (EA) in order to attract reshoring manufacturers into port logistics park. First, this paper found the reasons of reshoring reviewing the previous researches. The reasons are 1) advanced country's manufacturing competitiveness in total production cost compared to the emerging countries such as China, 2) the government policies enhancing the reshoring of their enterprise, and 3) the deterioration of management environment of foreign companies in the emerging countries. Second, this paper reviewed the supporting law and policy of korean government for reshoring manufacurers, and suggested the method to attract them into port logistics park. The current law to support the reshoring manufacturers does not have articles about moving into the port logistics park in order to help global trade from outsourcing countries. Finally, this paper provided the method of utilization of enterprise architecture to help reshoring decision making to get their benefit for the future and collaboration among related government departments with the ministry of maritime affairs and fisheries.

  • Today, the problem of the logistics rationalization has significant meanings as one of the new strategies for improving the power in the international competition. In order to achieve the logistics rationalization, the enhanced recognition to logistics of each enterprise is essential. However, the complete arrangement of the logistics external environment, that is, logistics infrastructure is also one of the most important matters. In this respect, to rationalize the container logistics, this paper deals with the strategies for strengthening the function of Pusan port which is handling the 95% of the export and import container. Some suggestions for those are as follows : First, the coastal container transportation system must be strengthened to dissolute the preponderance of road transportation. Second, a new large port must be developed at Gadeok island to handle the increasing container traffic in the years of 2000. Third, the port authority must be established under the cooperation of the central government and local government to comply with the necessity of the synthetic control for city and port. Fourth, the Inland Clearance Depot in going must be promptly completed to establish the efficient and synthetic container logistics system.

  • To promote process effectiveness and efficiency, it is necessary that port logistics employ automated equipments for handling containers. There exists a system for automatically managing the container flow, called Control Module. However, it has limitation to assign the execution order to the machine and monitor the container flow in real time process. Business process management (BPM) provides a suitable and effective framework to address this problem including controlling and monitoring the flow of each container. Since the nature of container handling process is different with the common process in BPM that is conducted by human performer, it is necessary to adjust the BPM framework in the domain of port logistic management. This study presents a BPM framework corresponds with both human-based and machine-based activity to enhance the efficiency of port process flow including container flow. This framework is introduced as an integrated approach and mechanism of BPM application into the container handling system for the purpose of port logistics process automation.

  • Logistics in a supply chain network has become an important operational strategy in a competitive market. A number of internal and external risks involved in the logistics operations in a company tend to create problems in fulfilling customer orders. This research presents how ERM (enterprise risk management) can be used to identify, assess, and control logistics risks. An electronic company's logistics activities were used as an industry case to demonstrate a way to identify and assess risks surrounding global logistics function. This paper has further presented action plans to mitigate the impact of the risks that occur.

  • A research on logistics cost needs a great deal of effort to calculate logistics cost and analyze its characteristics due to the complexity of logistics cost components. For this reason, the logistics cost is generally calculated based on the government level analysis. However, the standards for calculating logistics cost have not been obvious so far. Furthermore, it is true that it takes a long time and a lot of money to evaluate the percentage of each logistics cost component. The expansion of SCM entities has diversified the factors determining the logistics cost and the change of business environment has had an effect on the components of logistics costs. Therefore, in order to research on logistics cost, it is needed to focused on not only the segmentation of logistics cost components but also on their characteristics, and to separate the former from the latter. That is because the logistics cost components or the characteristics of these components depend on the current situation and conditions of companies. In addition, a strategy to reduce the components of logistics costs such as the transport cost and the storage cost without analyzing the characteristics and causes of the logistics cost could be an alternative unsuitable for the current status of companies concerned. In conclusion, this study was aimed at investigating the factors which are required to fundamentally assume and consider in an effort to calculate and reduce logistics cost based on analyzing the characteristics of logistics cost components.

  • This study is following the study of "A Meta Analysis on International Trade Transportation and Logistics" published in Korea Trade Review(KTR) in 2014 and adding additional analysis for articles published in journals of international trade transportation and logistics. Studying issues of KTR are moving from transportation to logistics after 2014 and it is similar with the other international journals. The ratio of the thems of 'Economic, Policy, Regional, Technical, General Enterprise Management' in KTR is 36%, while 57.36% of IJLM and 61.88% of JBL. Main theme in the field of international transportation and logistics is Supply Chain Management(SCM). After the former study, in the viewpoint of research methods, quantitative researches are increased while their portion is still low compare to International Journal of Logistics Management(IJLM) and Journal of Business Logistics (JBL). Especially econometric research method is highly adopted in the international journals compare to KTR. Number of authors of KTR is less than IJLM and JBL, because the collaboration between researchers is needed when they publish articles in the international journals like IJLM and JBL.
