## 3 Research Background and Hypotheses
### Perceived Benefits  
Several studies have discussed the perceived benefits of green logistics and their influence on implementation [24; 25]. Stakeholders perceive advantages such as cost savings, improved efficiency, reduced environmental impact, and enhanced corporate image. The Technology Acceptance Model posits that perceived usefulness and ease of use significantly influence an individual's willingness to use a system [94]. Perceived usefulness is the belief that using the system will enhance job performance, while perceived ease of use pertains to the belief that the system will be effortless to use [95]. In the context of public policy, the perceived usefulness and ease of use of a policy can affect its acceptance and implementation [96]. For example, logistics enterprises' perception of green logistics policies influences their willingness to accept and implement these policies. A high perception of the usefulness of green logistics policies can enhance compliance, therefore improving policy effectiveness. Conversely, if logistics enterprises perceive these policies as burdensome or unhelpful, they may not seriously implement them. Social supervision plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of green logistics policy implementation. It involves public monitoring of negative environmental behaviors, violations of green laws, and government inaction. Social supervision can take the form of public reporting and opinion, exerting external pressure on the government and logistics enterprises. This can influence policy effectiveness by prompting government action and adjusting enterprise behavior. The rapid development of the Internet and information technology has made information transmission swift, making external public or media supervision more likely to form public opinions that compel government action. The study examines the potential benefits that can be realized as green logistics practices mature, as outlined in Table 7. **Hypothesis 6 (H6)** suggests that these perceived benefits become more apparent as the core elements of green logistics reach maturity. The study explores several factors influencing the adoption of green logistics technologies and their impact on organizations. Cost savings are assessed by evaluating financial benefits through reduced operational costs, improved energy efficiency, and optimized resource utilization. Improved efficiency is analyzed by examining enhancements in logistical operations, such as faster processing times, reduced fuel consumption, and effective route planning. The reduced environmental impact is considered by evaluating the extent to which these technologies minimize the environmental footprint of logistics activities, including reductions in carbon emissions, waste production, and energy consumption. Enhanced corporate image assesses the impact of green logistics practices on the organization's public perception and brand value, considering the contribution of sustainability efforts to a positive corporate reputation. Finally, stakeholder engagement and satisfaction evaluate the involvement and contentment of stakeholders, such as customers, employees, and suppliers, with the organization's green logistics initiatives, including feedback mechanisms and participation in sustainability programs. \begin{table}

**Code** & **Factor** & **Description** \\ \hline V6F1 & Cost Savings & This factor evaluates the financial savings that can be achieved through the adoption of green logistics technologies. It encompasses a reduction in operational costs due to improved energy efficiency, less waste production, and optimized resource utilization [24; 25]. \\ \hline V6F2 & Improved Efficiency & This examines the enhancements in logistical operations’ efficiency resulting from the implementation of green technologies. Efficiency improvements may include faster processing times, reduced fuel consumption, and more effective route planning [24; 25]. \\ \hline \hline \end{tabular}
