Third-party logistics industry trends? It is reported that with the development of modern logistics industry, more and more domestic traditional transport companies began to get involved in the field of third-party logistics. For more details, the following is a small series of third-party logistics industry consolidation trend analysis.

   According to Xiaobian learned that China's accession to the WTO, the internationalization of the domestic market, there will be more foreign logistics providers to enter the domestic logistics market, China's third-party logistics industry to form a severe challenge.

(1) to speed up the reform of property rights system to stimulate the vitality of enterprises.

   Most of China's existing third-party logistics enterprises from the state-owned warehousing, transport enterprises from the transition, with many planned economy remains, can not adapt to the international market competition.    

   Therefore, it is necessary to establish a joint-stock enterprise with a diversified shareholding structure and perfect corporate governance structure, rationalize the equity relationship, separate the government from the enterprise, separate the ownership from the management right, ensure the operation of the enterprise according to the market rules and stimulate the vitality of the enterprise. COSCO Group, in integrating its existing logistics resources and the business of China Ocean Shipping Agency Company, set up COSCO Logistics Co., Ltd. in early 2002 to reconstruct the global logistics system which covers all over the world. The use of the power of the capital market, corporate restructuring and listing, absorption and use of social idle funds to overcome the shortcomings of capital shortage to promote the rapid growth of enterprises; expansion, to promote the establishment and operation of modern enterprise system.

(2) to information technology applications as the core, to strengthen network construction.

   Informationization is one of the most important indicators of modern logistics enterprises. Many multinational logistics enterprises have "first-class three-nets", ie order information flow, global supply chain resource network, global user resource network and computer information network. With information technology, enterprises can integrate business processes, can be integrated into the customer's production and management process, the establishment of an "efficient trading" management and production mode. In the new situation of accession to the WTO, the logistics market from domestic to international expansion, whether there is a network extending in all directions become increasingly important. Enterprises should be two-pronged approach to network construction: on the one hand, according to the actual situation to establish a tangible network, if large-scale enterprises, business and more self-built business outlets; if only sporadic business, and other logistics companies can consider cooperation and build Outlets; also with large customers joint venture or cooperation, build outlets. Such as COSCO Group and Little Swan, Kelon jointly set up a logistics company, the rational allocation of off-site supply, and achieved considerable benefits. On the other hand, to establish information network, through the Internet, management information systems, data exchange technology (EDI) and other information technology to achieve logistics enterprises and customers to share resources, real-time tracking of all aspects of logistics, effective control and full management, the formation of interdependence Of the market symbiotic relationship.

(3) to cultivate an internationally competitive logistics group, the implementation of intensive management.

   Many third-party logistics enterprises are in the planned economy period of commercial, material, food and other sectors of storage and transportation enterprises from the transformation, there are specific areas of service, competition between them is not. In order to meet the need of fierce competition after entering WTO, it is necessary to break the restriction of business scope, industry, region, ownership and so on, set up the idea of national chess, integrate logistics enterprises, encourage strong alliance and set up large group. In order to rational allocation of resources and sound business network, it is possible to extend the antenna to overseas, to participate in international market competition.

(4) to strengthen value-added services, the development of strategic alliances.

   According to the development trend of the logistics industry, the hybrid companies with both the large number of logistics facilities, the sound network and the strong whole logistics design ability have the largest development space. Only these enterprises can integrate the information technology and the implementation ability, Station in place "of the overall logistics solutions. Therefore, China's logistics enterprises in the provision of basic logistics services at the same time, according to market demand, continue to segment the market, expand business scope, customer efficiency as its mission to develop value-added logistics services, extensive processing, distribution, freight forwarding business, But also provide logistics strategy and process solutions, build information platform and other services, with specialized services to meet the individual needs, improve service quality, service for efficiency, the company through the provision of full-service approach, and large customers to strengthen business contacts , Enhance interdependence and develop strategic partnerships.

(5) should pay attention to logistics personnel training, implementation of talent strategy.

   Competition in the final analysis of the enterprise is the talent competition. Our gap with the logistics of developed countries, not just equipment, technology, financial gap, more importantly, the gap between ideas and knowledge. Only the continuous improvement of the quality of logistics practitioners, continuous learning and application of advanced technology and methods, in order to build a third-party logistics industry for China's national conditions.

   The development of the third party logistics is a systematic project, logistics enterprises alone is not enough effort, but also the government and industry associations to promote and control the role of third-party logistics enterprises to create a favorable external environment. First, as soon as possible to establish and improve the corresponding policy and regulatory system, in particular the formulation and implementation of preferential policies to enable third-party logistics development according to; Second, as soon as possible to establish a standardized industry standards, the implementation of industry self-discipline, standardize market behavior, Thirdly, we should play the function of organization, coordination, planning, unified planning, reasonable layout, and establish a modern logistics center with multi-function, high-level distribution, strong function and wide range of radiation to avoid the drawbacks of segmentation. Duplication of construction and waste of resources, and promote third-party logistics health, orderly development.
