  • Abstract
    At present, the successful operations of the fourth party logistics (4PL) in practice gradually demonstrate that it is an effective mode to integrate the supply chain´s complicated resources rationally, efficiently and flexibly. In order to thoroughly analyze the supply chain resources integration problem in 4PL from a quantitative perspective and to guide the integration practice, based on the previous study results, this paper takes the multi-objective optimization action of the integration decision as an analysis pivot, builds a improved ant algorithm to resolve the integration decision optimization process. Finally, the reasonability and feasibility of the algorithm are validated through the simulation of a calculation case.
