| Summary: | Logistics service providers (LSPs) struggle to offer supply chain finance (SCF) but little is known about how such firms can effectively extend their provision to such services. To address this shortcoming, we first develop a conceptual framework using dynamic capabilities and SCF literature and then elaborate this framework through a case study with four embedded units of analysis. We explicate generic and SCF instrument-specific operational capabilities and identify nuanced enablers of these capabilities in the process. Overall, our work provides a new terminology and structure explaining the provision of SCF by LSPs. |
