Abstract

Manufacturing enterprises are attempting to change from product suppliers into product-service providers through product-service integration during product lifecycle. In this context, logistics capability plays a significant role in transformation and upgrading, apart from design and manufacturing capability. To further improve logistics capability, logistics product service system (LPSS) is proposed based on product service system. This paper focuses on provision of idle logistics resource sharing for promoting LPSS. In order to share idle logistics resources, a model for logistics product service allocation is established firstly. After that, a Vickrey-Clarke-Groves-based payment rule is designed to complete transaction. Finally, a demonstrative case with the logistics product service provider and eight manufacturers is presented to illustrate the feasibility and applicability of the proposed method.
