The main aim of this paper is to investigates how to assess the intellectual capital in order to improve the management of knowledge in third-party logistics service providers. The paper reviews the main methods for assessing intellectual capital assets in the logistics service industry. It suggests the non-monetary methods as the most appropriate ones.
