Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the critical success factors of business process outsourcing in the nascent Logistics Kenya context. A census of all the logistics companies operating in Nairobi was carried out. Data was collected through a questionnaire and factor analysis was conducted to establish the main factors. It was established that there are five critical success factors: investment of international companies in the local economy; internet connectivity; top management support; creation/expansion of a potential niche and necessary expertise. This exploration study will go a long way to help practitioners focus investment in these identified priority areas.
