About

Mehrdad Parsaee is a leading researcher in supply chain management and logistics innovation, with a particular focus on the transformative role of intelligent technologies in last-mile delivery. His work critically examines how artificial intelligence and modern technologies are reshaping the final, most complex stage of the supply chain—the journey from distribution centers to end customers. In his highly cited 2022 paper, "Toward a Modern Last-Mile Delivery: Consequences and Obstacles of Intelligent Technology" (63 citations), Parsaee provides a comprehensive analysis of the challenges logistics providers face in adapting to evolving customer expectations, competitive pressures, and technological disruption. He identifies key obstacles to AI adoption while mapping out the strategic consequences for firms that fail to modernize. Parsaee’s research is particularly valuable for practitioners and scholars seeking to understand the practical barriers to implementing smart logistics solutions. By bridging the gap between theoretical frameworks and real-world operational challenges, his work has become essential reading for those navigating the digital transformation of supply chains. His contributions offer actionable insights for creating more efficient, responsive, and sustainable delivery systems in an increasingly automated world.
