Cost Structure Identification for Third-Party Logistics Services in Construction Projects
The third-party logistics services have been applied to some large-scale construction projects in several countries and research regarding this has been published in the last five years. However, a review of the cost structure for these services is still rarely done. The previous research has been done provides an overview of the potential value of third-party logistics services to support the logistics activities of small-sized contractors which can occupy an interface space between the supply chain of materials and construction projects in Indonesia. Therefore, a study on the cost structure of third-party logistics services will be conducted to complete the model. This paper presents a comprehensive study within a literature review and survey to identify the cost structure of the third-party logistics services to support strategic commodities of small-sized contractor in building construction and road projects. The activity-based costing approach is used to set out the cost structure. In general, the cost structure incurred on third-party logistics services consists of the direct cost of the commodities, transportation costs, costs, storage costs, administrative costs, and supporting service costs. The cost formulation of the third-party logistics service provider should be defined with counting analysis of the resources consumed for all activities and it will be a further study of this research. The result of this study will be used to assess the feasibility of the third-party logistics business model for small-sized contractors in Indonesia.
