Reverse Logistics in Czech Companies: Increasing Interest in Performance Measurement
Original language description
Purpose ? This paper explores whether Czech companies believe that value is being generated by reverse logistics (RL), and whether (and how) they track its costs and benefits. The quality of performance measurement of RL was related to three corporate attributes. The findings were then compared to the results of an older study to describe developments over the past five years, and to evaluate the changes during this time period. Design/Methodology/Approach ? This exploratory research is based on data from 102 Czech companies collected in 2009. The basic statistical tests were applied in the analysis. A part of the paper takes the form of longitudinal research. Findings ? One third of Czech companies surveyed reported that RL had a positive influence ontheir profits. A positive relationship between the profitability of RL activities and a company?s strategic focus on RL was also identified.
