20.500.12556/DKUM-86575 Barriers to applying last-mile logistics in the Egyptian market an extension of the technology acceptance model Drawing on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), this research aims to investigate the impact of social, environmental, and technological barriers on adopting the last-mile logistics application. This research used a self-administrative questionnaire to collect 1060 respondents from the Egyptian market and analysed it using partial least square structural equation modeling. The findings revealed that some elements could obstruct the implementation of last-mile delivery technologies, namely complexity, collaboration efforts between users and application developers and the impact of technical knowledge and expertise on the potentially involved users. The sharing economy helps organisations reduce contaminants, emissions and carbon footprints, and last-mile logistics is one of the tools of the sharing economy that can enhance the productivity and competitiveness of logistics and boost consumer fulfillment. This research will help enhance organisations’ performance in Egypt as a developing country and push towards applying environmental sustainability practices, as it introduces a tool to enhance customer satisfaction and reduce emissions by illustrating how last-mile logistics can be implemented. This is particularly important as last-mile logistics face some implementation barriers, especially in developing countries. In addition, it will help in extending the theory through conceptualising its abstract ideas with the research variables and applying it in a different context. technology acceptance model technology implementation barrier last-mile delivery sustainability sharing economy structural equation modelling model sprejemljivosti tehnologije ovire pri uvajanju tehnologije dostava na zadnji milji trajnost delitvena ekonomija modeliranje strukturnih enačb true false false Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2023-12-15 10:51:33 2023-12-15 10:51:33 2023-12-16 03:37:37 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2023 0 0 str. 1-25 issue 17, [article no.] 12748 Vol. 15 Sept. 2023 0000-00-00 PostprintKoncna Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2023-09-01 005.51:656 177636355 10.3390/su151712748 2071-1050 https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/15/17/12748 1 884c81ab-9b2f-11ee-962d-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=174874 Sultan_et_al.-Barriers_to_applying_last-mile_logistics_in_the_Egyptian_market.pdf Sultan_et_al.-Barriers_to_applying_last-mile_logistics_in_the_Egyptian_market.pdf 1 7D1F8D1E8EFA06D57BBA24F93D74F05C c1548cdac2f3ec9ecc0d079a4329112ae1f1e55eb89d6b36231462ce00b12fd9 d8678393-9b2f-11ee-962d-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=174875 Fakulteta za logistiko 0 0 0
