One area that is suggested needs additional research is the mismatch between the 3PL as service provider's promises to service user and its actual capabilities and performance. That is, how service users of 3PL expect them to manage and utilizer their intangible asset which is human capital as internal strengths in order to maintain a competitive advantage to attract the support of existing and potential clients research focused on identifying and understanding of how the right knowledge, skills and abilities (KSAs) of employees in third party logistics (3PL) service companies are matched to their clients' expectations.
