KMRP – Knowledge Management Research & Practice: Call for Paper
Special Issue
Logistics knowledge management: state of the art and future perspectives
Guest Editors
In today’s dynamic competitive environment, logistics management has become increasingly complex and knowledge-intensive.
The globalization of logistics processes, the development of collaborative logistics partnership, the role of human resources, and the digitalization of logistics processes are some of the trends that demonstrate how knowledge is a strategic resource for supporting the logistics of the future.
Accordingly, the adoption of a knowledge strategy and the implementation of a knowledge management (KM) approach are becoming crucial for achieving efficiency in managing logistics processes.
From the academic point of view, despite the increasing interest in studying KM in logistics, this topic has received little attention.
The aim of this special issue is to contribute to bridge this gap through presenting recent research in order to expand the application of both knowledge management theory and practices in logistics.
This Special Issue has been planned in conjunction with the 12th IFKAD 2017 (International Forum on Knowledge Asset Dynamics) held in St. Petersburg on 7-9 June 2017 where a special session has been dedicated to this theme.
Papers adopting different theoretical lenses, using different research methods, analyzing different types of organizations, exploring new application areas of KM in logistics and comparing evidence from different countries are strongly encouraged.
Authors are requested to submit high-quality and original papers that have neither submitted elsewhere and nor are under consideration by other journals.
Important date:
30 November 2017: Call for Papers will be closed. Collected papers will be sent to reviewers.
Maximum length of papers: 8,000 words
