Abstract
This paper introduces the concept of maritime logistics value as one of the most
significant strategic goals that maritime operators want to achieve. The value is
reflected in operational efficiency (e.g. reducing lead time and business costs) and
service effectiveness (e.g. flexibility, responsiveness and reliability in the service).
Drawing from key theories and practices in strategic management such as
knowledge-based perspective and social network embeddedness perspective, this
paper adopts a knowledge management strategy as a way to create and sustain
the maritime logistics value. A conceptual framework is established for the
exploration of the way to acquire knowledge and the effectiveness of the acquired
knowledge in maximising the maritime logistics value. Following the parameters
of this framework, the positive relationship between social networks, knowledge
acquisition and maritime logistics value is identified, and its relevant theoretical
and practical implications are discussed.
