Abstract: For logistics service integrator (LSI), in a dynamic market, the only effective way for logistics enterprise obtaining greater benefits is to continue innovating and maintaining dynamic capabilities. In the use of sub-model multidimensional approach, we proposed that the dynamic capacity composed by the environmental awareness, resource integration capability and logistics flexibility capability. The paper gives the dynamic capability measure, the concept definition of LSI, how it affects the ability to build dynamic growth performance LSI growth models, and make an empirical analysis. It also finalise the structural model that dynamic capabilities impact on LSI growth performance. Then, we construct the model of the effect of dynamic capability on the growth performance of LSI. We deeply analyse mechanism of factors that affect growth merits of logistic service.
Keywords: logistics service integrator; LSI; dynamic capabilities; enterprises growth performance.
