Abstract
This paper aims to provide a PESTLE (Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Legal and Environmental) analysis of current trends and changes in the urban goods transport market. The goal is to assess the macro-environmental factors that are affecting innovative solutions for last-mile delivery, and to use this analysis to support decision making and planning for horizontal schemes of collaboration and policy interventions that may be necessary for introducing these solutions successfully and becoming more competitive in practice. By carefully prioritizing these factors, relevant stakeholders can make informed decisions and take effective actions to improve the competitiveness of their operations in the urban goods transport industry.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
