This article describes the notion of “customer activity” in logistics services as an interaction with providers. We reviewed concepts of customer activity in services offered by logistics service providers (LSPs) in the food sector. We then analysed customer activity in transport, storage and management of services. We used a direct diagnostic survey for comparative analysis of groups of customers. The roles of LSPs in the supply chain and within the framework of cooperation in the business-to-business market are presented. Basic customer activities were examined by studying the supply chain, within which LSPs adapted their processes to the activities of their customers. The research results present the degree of customer activity in supply chains.Theoretical background: Customer activity in logistics services is mainly understood as part of interaction with providers. This study goes beyond this view by focusing on the independent activity of the customer in solutions related to transport, storage and the management of logistics services.Purpose of the article: The purpose of the article was to review concepts of customer activity in services offered by LSPs in food-sector supply chains; customer activity was characterised and applied in exploratory research.Research methods: A literature review, comparison of groups of customers, and a direct diagnostic survey method were all used.Main findings: The perspective of customer activity predominating among customers allows LSPs to pursue different activities on behalf of different groups of customers. This article contributes to research on logistics services while focusing on the concept of customer activity.

The article discusses the theoretical principles of statistical research with regard to the national market of logistics services during wartime. The system of statistical indicators of the research of the logistics services market is structured through the allocation of separate blocks of indicators by priority of their estimation in war conditions. The market of logistics services of Ukraine is characterised by selected blocks of indicators. The paper identifies the main structural changes that occurred due to the hostilities faced by the country. Moreover, the authors determine the main factors influencing the functioning of the analysed market during war, as the statistical study of these factors is considered necessary for the transformation and development of logistics services. It is substantiated that taking into account such statistical indicators as the level and availability of logistics infrastructure, security, the human factor and changes in legislation are likely to result in a new alternative direction of logistics routes and contribute to the development of the logistics services market in general. The authors proposed the construction of a centralised electronic service (or several services) with the purpose of consolidating information about the logistics infrastructure. The software system should offer the option of an operational interactive visualisation.

Background: The paper is focused on some selected aspects of the cooperation between logistics service providers and their customers and considers the results of comparative analysis of importance assessment of the variables determining: the scope and nature of that cooperation, quality of providers' sales offer as well as changes in their customer service policy. Methods: To analyze the underlying problem direct research was conducted, i.e. a survey based on a questionnaire among 50 logistics service providers and 50 shippers. The sample was determined on special purpose. In the statistical analysis chi-square independence test, U Mann-Whitney's test as well as Cramer's V and Spearman's rho correlation ratios were used. Results: There were observed significant statistical differences between analyzed groups in the way the cooperation is perceived. The most vital discrepancies are related to customers' satisfaction degree and the assessment of the influence the providers' prices and competencies have on the cooperation. For the customers, declaring higher degree of the satisfaction from the cooperation, service quality was the most important factor. However, for the service providers, price factor was the most important one. Moreover, some differences in the answers related to changes in the service were observed, mainly with reference to: logistics capacity, out-of-loss shipments and communication. Conclusions: The group of customers revealed to be little demanding about logistics service. They tended to order mainly routine services, not demanding special skills from the service providers. This is the most probable reason why customers/providers preferred cooperation with greater number of entities. The customers, unlike service providers, also didn't have the need to develop more advanced forms of cooperation. Moreover, the observed differences related to the importance hierarchy of the cooperation determinants as well as service standards, should be considered by the logistics service providers when continuing their cooperation with customers.

Wstęp: Artykuł koncentruje się na wybranych aspektach współpracy usługodawców logistycznych z klientami, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem wyników analizy porównawczej oceny znaczenia determinant odpowiedzialnych za jej zakres i charakter, a także jakości świadczonych usług oraz zmian w polityce obsługi klienta. Metody: Podjęty problem badawczy zrealizowano na podstawie badań bezpośrednich, które przeprowadzono z zastosowaniem metody wywiadu kwestionariuszowego wśród 50 usługodawców logistycznych oraz 50 przedsiębiorstw zlecających obsługę logistyczną. Próbę badawczą dobrano w sposób celowy. W analizie statystycznej wykorzystano test niezależności chi-kwadrat, test U Manna-Whitneya oraz współczynniki korelacji V Cramera i rho-Spearmana. Wyniki: Odnotowano istotne statystycznie różnice w sposobie postrzegania współpracy pomiędzy badanymi grupami. Główne rozbieżności dotyczyły poziomu zadowolenia klientów oraz oceny wpływu cen świadczonych im usług i kompetencji obsługujących ich pracowników na przebieg współpracy. Dla klientów, deklarujących większą satysfakcję z tytułu współpracy z usługodawcami, najważniejsza była jakość usług. Z kolei usługodawcy największą wagę przypisywali głównie cenie. Odnotowano także różnice w odpowiedziach dotyczących zmian w obsłudze, zwłaszcza w odniesieniu do: potencjału logistycznego, bezszkodowości dostaw oraz wymiany informacji. Wnioski: Grupa usługobiorców okazała się mało wymagająca pod względem obsługi logistycznej. Klienci zlecali głównie usługi rutynowe, których świadczenie nie wymagało od usługodawców szczególnych umiejętności. Najprawdopodobniej właśnie dlatego, dostawcy/odbiorcy ładunków utrzymywali relacje z większą liczbą podmiotów. Nie odczuwali oni także potrzeby budowania bardziej zaawansowanych poziomów współpracy, na czym zależało przedstawicielom drugiej grupy. Odnotowane w badaniu różnice, zarówno te dotyczące hierarchii ważności poszczególnych determinant, jak i te odnoszące się do standardów obsługi, powinny zostać uwzględnione przez usługodawców podczas ich dalszej współpracy z klientami.
