The first dimension of logistics innovation is BUSINESS MODELS.

The SECOND dimension of logistics innovation is best practices.

From a logistics and innovation perspective, we can define a Best Practice as a solution that uses an innovative approach to improve freight transport sustainability in economic, environmental or social terms. An innovative logistics practices inventory can be used as an instrument for the transfer of knowledge throughout the freight transport industry.

Future work focus will be to identify knowledge on what the drivers for successful logistics innovations are and how the barriers to innovation adoption can be mitigated and transferability increased between different sizes of operators, small to large, type of operation and geographical location in Europe.
