Economic efficiency of outsourcing in the field of transport and logistics

Abstract

In the modern economy, the aggregate supply of "goods and services", i.e., the services (transportation, storage of goods, warranty service, etc.) associated with the purchase of a good, along with the goods to the buyer, is becoming increasingly important. Thus, in addition to producing or selling goods, businesses are also engaged in the delivery of products, customer service, and other logistics operations, resulting in prices that are not only close to the cost of production, but can exceed it several times. That is, businesses are becoming increasingly multifaceted. This requires a wide variety of resources and skills of employees, which complicates the management process and the organizational structure of the enterprise.
