Abstract	Due to growing competition, companies are paying more and more attention to logistic costs. As limited shipment volumes impede the optimization of company-owned logistics structures and processes, cooperative approaches to logistics are a powerful tool to optimize cost structures and increase overall efficiency. This paper proposes a cooperation framework for horizontal logistics collaboration. Due to the variety of possible influencing factors and parameters of cooperation, the approach is divided into three strategies: joint tendering, cross-company bundling and coordination between logistics and production. The three approaches differ in the necessary degree of cooperation and in the resulting potential for consolidation. With regard to the company's characteristics its qualification for one of the three strategies can be identified and the possible potentials can be derived.
