  • The SUCCESS project, financed by the European Union under the H2020 program, aims to contribute to the reduction of negative impacts of the freight distribution caused by the construction sector in urban areas. This technical paper includes some of the results obtained during the project, aiming to improve the current understanding of the functioning of the Construction Consolidation Centres (CCCs). For this purpose, the CANVAS Business Model has been used to assess the business models of several alternatives of CCCs. A CANVAS is a structured methodology that considers nine basic building blocks that cover the main areas of any business. The results obtained from the analysis pointed out that, even though several cities face the similar problems regarding the urban logistics, the level of intensity of these problems vary in each of them. Consequently, the most adequate business models capable of solving each case may also vary. This work will present several CCCs business models proposed by the partners of the SUCCESS project that can be easily adapted to any city aiming to improve its urban logistics
