This study also studies how the government’s control situation affects the effectiveness and efficiency of emergency logistics. Design/Methodology/Approach We employed a quantitative research method using survey data collected in Wuhan, China. This paper tested five hypotheses which assumes the effect of transportation system, inter-organizational cooperation, emergency logistics center location and demand and inventory management on the emergency logistics performance. In addition, we also examined a moderating role of government control on those hypothesized relationships.
