This paper aims to examine the factors influencing successful logistics information technology (LIT) among third-party logistics (3PL) service providers. Cross-sectional data from 136 Malaysian 3PL service providers were collected. Our findings indicate that the existence of technological capability, top management support, effective enterprise-wide communication and business process reengineering are pertinent. Nonetheless, the result demonstrate that firm size do not play a role in such initiative.

This chapter explores and evaluates the performance of supply chain management (SCM) (i.e., effectiveness and efficiency) in using global logistics information technologies (GIST) (i.e., information technology [IT] and information systems [IS]) in Hong Kong firms. This chapter is organized as follows. First, previous research on the role of functional information systems for supply chain management is discussed. Next, the characteristics of information systems utilized for supply chain management are identified, based on factor analysis of sample data from 71 Hong Kong firms. Third, a conceptual model and hypothesis relating to utilization of information systems, information technology, and SCM performance will be identified. Discussion and recommendations are explained, based on the results.
