  • With the application enlargement of RFID technology in the field of logistics, it is needed to analyze the relation adoption factors of RFID with logistics performance. That is, this study aims at analyzing how RFID adoption would give an effect to logistics performance in logistics company, stating its implications. More specifically, this study tests empirical relation of CEO's support, technical competence, trading partner, compatibility, relative advantage and logistics performance of applying RFID in logistics company. Based on previous studies which are related to RFID in the field of SCM, logistics, distribution and manufacturing, this study established research model and hypothesis, and surveyed employees of logistics company. To analyze the data, exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation model were applied. The results are follows. Applying RFID in logistics, CEO's support and trading partner gives significantly positive effect to logistics performance. But compatibility and relative advantage do not give meaningful effect to logistics performance. Additionally, though technical competence does not have statistical significance to logistics performance, it is necessary to consider it can have meaningful influence on logistics performance substantially.

  • In modern marketing environment, we are more interested in logistics as industrial structure is complicated and globalized. Most companies focus on reducing the cost price. So a lot of companies study on cost estimation logistics. However, it Is very difficult to estimate the cost of logistics. Thus they mainly use linear method such as the simple distance of transportation. This study defines the cost of logistics, structure & network of military logistics and proposes the costing estimation model in the logistics. We apply to battle shoes which are the main clothing in the military. In the result, we found some differences on the rate of cost structure between military and civil companies. This study can be used directly to the decision making for optimal military logistics alternatives and contribute to the efficient operation of military budget.

  • Increasing costs and competition in the global trade and transportation arena have led to a search for effient, cost-effective, particularly through the application of computer and information technologies. Most recently the introduction of Electronic Data Interchange(EDI) technologies in both trading and trade facili-tation activitiess have bagun to change the complextion of the international transport space. Korea as well as the other developing countries has become aware of the need to embrace EDI strate-gies in order to maintain a competitive market position with their more technologically advanced neighbou-ring and international trading partners. A way of EDI implementation, KMPA has invested large budgets in the research of the EDI since 1990. As the result of study in EDI of transport, KL-Net(Korea Logistics Network) was organized for the EDI business in cargo logistics. In spite of these KMPA's activities, the development plan of container logistics data interchange is not good and useful. So a new model of EDI in transportation is required by using the concepts of cargo data sharing. The purpose of this paper is to suggest a new way of container logistics data interchange model. This paper therefore analyze the information flow in the current container logistics and find the problem in the area to derive a new model. The followings are the results of this paper : (1) There are many problems and user's requirements in container logistics data interchange in Korea. (2) Many messages of UN/EDIFACT are able to be used in container logistics data interchange. (3) The container cargo data are stored in Container Logistics Network(CL-Net) database. And when necessary by requesting message transmission, the container logistics data interchange is possible. (4) Customs cargo clearance system and PORT-MIS can be linked to CL-Net. If the systems, however, are to introduce EDI in data interchange, the quality of user's software has to be assured.
