Abstract

The market of Logistics services providers (Third Party Logistics – 3PL) is rapidly growing the last years in Greece. The demand for such services requires a systematic evaluation of the services offered and applications of certain methodology in selecting 3PL partners. In the framework of an informal contest, this paper suggests a methodology for bid evaluation of 3PL providers, based
on the estimation of a superiority index which achieves to discriminate them into beneficiary and non beneficiary. The aggregation method which defines the superiority index is based on Data Envelopment Analysis. The proposed approach is applied to an evaluation problem for 3PL providers of an industry activated in the food sector.
