Abstract

The Indian third-party logistics industry (TPLI), in the last 15 years, has witnessed a hyper velocity and hyper competitive environment, especially in the context of e-Tail. Though TPLI firms have been considering several strategies to address the environment and sustain competitive advantage, many of them are struggling. Blue Dart, a leader of the industry, has survived and sustained its competitive advantage. This study, adopting extended case study method, conducts an in-depth case study on alliance formation and its effect on firm performance. The study analyses alliance portfolio diversity and neo-strategic alliances, as a new strategic choice, to develop dynamic capability to sustain and consolidate market dominance in the industry. The study explains research context, method, propositions, and proposes implications for the firm in hyper competitive, emerging market contexts.
