ABSTRACT: Milk runs and pick-up-tours controlled by OEMs are transportation modes which have strongly been discussed in the vehicle sector for many years now. At the same time, they have not been broadly applied yet. The following paper differentiates these concepts from the consolidated freight and the direct transportation mode. After this, the paper focuses on the special concept of order pearl chain controlled milk runs. It is shown which organizational, process and control attributes are crucial to a successful implementation in practice. The paper closes with a case study on the monetary potential of milk runs.
