1 Turku School of Economics, Finland International Federation for Freight Forwarders Associations Addressing transport barriers on border crossings in the Western Balkans, SEETO Podgorica, 27 March 2012 Logistics Performance Index (LPI) and SEETO countries & Measuring national level logistics costs Background to LPI First report & data launched on Nov. 5, LPI 2010 launched by WB President Robert B Zoellick in Berlin on Jan. 15, 2010 Worldwide media coverage Prof. Dr. Lauri Ojala Turku School of Economics University of Turku, Finland Lauri.ojala@utu.fi Global Facilitation Partnership for Transportation and Trade December 24, LPI 2012 out in April 2012 Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 2 What is the LPI? A set of indicators that measure the performance of the trade logistics environment of countries Data for the LPI Logistics professionals in international freight forwarding operations LPI 2010 data collection Web-based Survey in: English, French, Spanish, Chinese & Russian 1,000+ individual respondents Responses from 130 countries 5,000+ individual country evaluations Seen from the outside Also domestic data from 100 countries Seen from the inside with a smaller N Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 3 Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala countries based on 5,000+ individual country assessments evaluated on: Customs and other border procedures Transport and IT infrastructure & services Availability of affordable shipments Logistics competence Tracking and tracing of shipments Timeliness of shipments Measures how easy or difficult a country s Trade Logistics is as seen from the outside More applicable to trade of manufactures by air, containers, rail or trailers than to bulk shipping Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 5 Overall LPI 2010 scores on a World map Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 6 1

Statistics-based studies applying models Econometric Other modelling approaches Case study-based approaches Surveys using questionnaires Comprehensive themes Single-theme surveys Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 17 Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 18 3

4 However, severe knowledge gaps on logistics performance indicators & costs Lack of uniform methods & terminology Very few cross-country studies made, thus little comparative data exists across Countries Industries Examples of statistics-based logistics studies Annual State of Logistics Report U.S 1989 Bowersox, Rodrigues, Calantone & Closs, Stank 1999, -02,-05 South Africa State of Logistics Survey 2003 Brazil (ILOS) 2006 Europe Top 100 of logistics providers 2007 Norway (TÖI) 2008 Svensk Makrologistik (Sweden) 2008 Comparisons across studies problematic Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 19 World Bank case studies on national logistics costs in Low-Income countries Estimating Albania s trade logistics costs (2007) Arvis: Sub-Saharan and North Africa 2003 Ojala: Moldova, Albania, Ukraine, Central Asia 2003 Naula: Central Asia 2007 Much of these are related to border crossing issues, and these can also be affected by better bordercrossing performance orld Bank Source: Ojala for The Wo Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 21 Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 22 Ex. of broad surveys using questionnaires ELA & A.T.

5 How high are logistics costs for manufacturing and trading firms? No statistical nor accounting term on firm or macro levels therefore conceptions inevitable vary Compared to Sales? Total Costs? GDP? Translation and educational issues are also prevalent in cross-cultural studies Logistics costs often 5--points higher in self-reported than in statistics-based studies Delimiting the object of analysis difficult How broad/narrow a scope along the supply chain? How to treat domestic vs. international operations? How to treat in-house vs. outsourced operations? Self-reporting subjective; aggregation may lead to double counting across sectors and supply chains Statistics cover national transport and storage cost; selfreported data also include international supply chains Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 25 Podgorica, March 26, 2012 Prof. Ojala 26 For high value adding firms, transport is a small part of logistics costs Main approaches in studies measuring aggregate level logistics costs Type of Logistics Cost Direct transport, warehousing, materials management...
