Towards a Comprehensive Understanding of Stakeholder Requirements for Automated Road Transport Logistics

The logistics domain promises to be a first ground for the roll-out and business integration of automated vehicles, but so far the needs and expectations by the manifold stakeholders have only been analyzed to a limited degree. This paper describes a framework for capturing the requirements for automated road transport logistics, which integrates a comprehensive stakeholder taxonomy, operational factors and key scenarios, as well as a tailored acceptance factors model. We conclude with considerations for mixed-methods data capture and an outlook towards next steps of research.
