  • Abstract
    The operational performance of logistics is the core-competitiveness of third-party logistics (TPL) enterprise. This paper brings forward the merger theory model of system integration and system specialization, and establishes the indicator system of TPL operational performance depends on the model, and then analyses the evaluation methods and data change. As an important phase in the circle of productivity engineering, the value of evaluation indexes in the establishment of TPL enterprise development strategy is discussed. In the end, this paper discusses the equilibrium between logistics integration and logistics specialization in the different develop phase of TPL enterprise depends on a case.
