Source paper
This design requirement is proposed by Decentralized Procurement Mechanisms for Efficient Logistics Services Mapping - a Design Science Research Approach (Tiphaine Henry, Roman Beck, Nassim Laga, Walid Gaaloul, Shenle Pan, 2022).
Addresses
- Design objective P1: Platform operating costs reduction - The paper states platform operating costs reduction "also relies on allocation flexibility (cf R1)."
- Design objective P2: Contractual flexibility - The paper states "the inner flexibility of the allocation mechanism ensures contractual flexibility (cf R1)."
