Recently there are many changes of logistics environment such as integrated logistics information system, the rapid growth of the domestic and international small package express service and third party logistics with Electronic Commerce. At this time it is very important to deliver to customers the goods sold through EC speedy, accurately and safely. That is to say, the role of small package express service is very important at EC times.
The bottlenecks of small package express service in the circumstances of EC are the weakness of EC operating company and small package express service provider, the shortage of distribution centre and cargo terminal, the shortage of skilled man with related small package express service etc.
It suggests that for activation of EC it is necessary to strengthen the strategic alliances, introduce GPS and use the third party logistics positively in the side of small package express service provider. So, it is necessary to prepare for the settlements of traffic problems, support the introduction of integrated logistics service and logistics information system and deregulate restriction such as weight limit of vehicles in the side of the government.
