Title: Business Models for Advanced ICT in Logistics
Abstract: This scientific work explains how ICT together with an innovative business approach may enhance supply chains. The presented results derive from the application of a novel methodology developed to study the evolution of the business models of different business actors belonging to a business ecosystem focused on co-modal logistics networks. Each type of actors is pursuing its own value system on the basis of the key elements that identify and characterize the nature of its activities and business. The focus of the business models is on the key elements that characterize the value-creation links between the involved actors in the proposed Logistics Reference Value Chain. The presented work focuses on broadening and exploring the traditional concepts of business models showing their evolution when considering the future business environment. Two cases studies are presented to show in practical terms the evolution of the business models of the involved logistics actors in a business ecosystem and to present concrete examples from industries.
