Summary/Abstract: It has to be admitted that the idea decentralized construction logistics, respectively construction site logistics is strongly contested in the scientific literature at the moment. This paper deals with the advantages of decentralized construction logistics. The prevailing view in research is that centralized construction logistics is preferable to decentralized ones. Based on a systematic review of the literature, it is shown that decentralized construction logistics can be advantageous due to the specialization of the construction, different degrees of professionalization, difficulties in cooperation, avoidance of costs and technological inconsistencies and properties as well as with regard to the objects of the construction process.
