Abstract
Within this paper, we discuss benefit sharing in modern freight logistics. We propose to introduce transport management platforms for organising intermodal transports. As this idea is not new at all, we focus on the sharing of (costs and) benefits within these platforms as in our understanding one main obstacle in collaborative logistics is the willingness of people (decision makers) to collaborate with (potential) competitors. Although in a future world where collaborative logistics are well-established there might be no need for such strategies, we think that during transition a fair sharing among participants which does not advantage one of them is crucial. A simple, yet fair calculation method is presented. Impacts and future works are then discussed.
