Abstract

Logistics performance measurement has become increasingly important for countries as the competitive environment has increased. For this purpose, the World Bank has begun publishing logistics performance index (LPI) reports. The LPI ranking of countries is determined by the experts’ scoring system. By re-analyzing this scoring and reevaluating it without the need for expert opinion, this study analyzed the evaluation of country rankings according to criteria weights from several different angles. This study aims to provide a detailed analysis of the World Bank’s 2023 report using the ENTROPY-based ORESTE method, which has not previously been used in LPI evaluation and provides a more accurate and robust approach to the research. Although several studies have explored this similar topic in the literature, using a new method and comparing the criteria weights by including them in the analysis gave the present study a broader perspective. LPI analysis is an important tool for assessing and improving a country’s competitiveness, and it can help investors compare logistics infrastructure and processes across countries. This can help stakeholders to better plan and make direct investments. Logistics researchers can use the LPI to examine sectoral and economic trends and forecast future developments. Furthermore, the LPI can be used in academia to train and raise awareness about assessment, logistics, and supply chain management programs. This is an important resource for training future logistics professionals and managers and providing policymakers and practitioners with a more refined tool for identifying areas for improvement and investment in logistics infrastructure.
