Abstract

Sharing of commercial vehicles is less popular than private vehicles despite their high volume of traffic on road. This paper addresses the difficulties of applying AHP framework of considering sharing commercial vehicles as part of a logistic fleet. An in-depth interview with an experienced logistic consultant was carried out. Due to the diversity and complexity of commercial vehicle sharing, the decision maker should know the technical issues of vehicle sharing. This paper raises an important point for AHP application: Information overload of developing technology and difficulty of pairwise comparison when alternatives are very different in scales and investment involved.
