Abstract
ABSTRACT A Collaborative logistics network is a new service style that is oriented from a platform economy and that aims at a win–win of network participants and higher customer satisfaction. As a new business mode in supply chain management, this network style can attract all kinds of logistics entities, schedule various resources distributed in space–time and provide efficient customised services for customers. In the current paper, we first employ the 5W1H method to introduce collaborative logistics networks from a theoretical perspective. First, we construct an analysis system consisting of three parts: market positioning, operation mechanism and profit model. Furthermore, we give the canvas of this business mode, including a service list, core stakeholders, application scenario, operation mode and profit allocation. Finally, we introduce some typical cases operated in the USA, EU and China, discussing the application prospect in green supply chain management.
