Empirical Evidence on Failure Factors of Warehouse Productivity in Malaysian Logistic Service Sector
(چکیده مقاله) :
Abstract :
Warehousing is a crucial industry for trade-dependent nations like Malaysia. According to the
World Bank Logistic Performance Index (LPI) 2016, Malaysia was ranked number 32 out of 160
countries in 2016, as against number 25 in 2014, despite a high level of warehouse activity during
that year. The decrease in ranking was due to low warehouse productivity in Malaysia. Therefore,
the objective of this paper is to consider ten parameters to assess the failure factors of warehouse
productivity in the Malaysian logistics service sector, by applying a fuzzy analytic hierarchy
process method. The findings highlighted the top three failure factors that influence the levels of
warehouse productivity in the Malaysian logistics service sector as being ‘labour productivity’,
‘warehouse utilisation’ and ‘inventory space utilisation’. This study contributes to the
empowerment of warehouse productivity in the industry, in alignment with Malaysia’s aspirational
2020 economic target. Consequently, this study provides new knowledge on warehouse
productivity issues that will benefit decision makers in the warehouse industry. This research may
enable decision makers to recognise problematic factors when planning their warehouse
productivity improvement strategy, which may contribute to fulfilling government targets and
empowering the national economy.
