Abstract

Expectations of principals concerning the effects of cooperation with providers of logistics services are significantly different. Some of them can be targeted to the effects, that appear directly after the beginning of cooperation, or appearing in the short term of operation. Others often are not interested in benefits of short-term cooperation. They are oriented on joint investments and support in mutual development with service providers. It should be noted that the achievement of long-term effects is usually dependent on the occurrence of certain benefits in a short period of cooperation. The purpose of this paper is to characterize selected criteria particularly for evaluation of short-term results of cooperation with providers of logistics service. These criteria concern, in particular the organization of cooperation, as well as principal market performance, in which provider may play the important role.
