СКАЧАТЬ технологии инсорсинга в сфере логистических услуг: 1PL (логистика одной стороны) – когда все операции выполняет сам грузовладелец – свой транспортный парк и водительский персонал – автономная логистика. 2PL (логистика второй стороны) – когда фирма сама планирует и складирует, но не имеет транспортного парка.

      В период 1980 -1990 гг. появляется 3PL (или полный аутсорсинг) – логистика третьей стороны, при которой субподрядчики занимаются логистикой фирмы, фирма сама не занимается внешней логистикой.

      В период 1990-2000 гг. сформировался 4PL (четвертая сторона в логистике), – когда фирма пользуется услугами генератора логистики, т.е. системного логистического интегратора, предоставляющего услуги по проектированию, интегрированному планированию цепей поставок компании.

      Некоторые специалисты полагают, что в связи с развитием электронного бизнеса могут произойти изменения в логистике и возникнет следующий уровень логистических систем операторов – провайдеров – 5PL. Эти провайдеры – виртуальные интегрированные логистические операторы.
