J'ai trouvé une définition sur ce site : http://www.industrie.gouv.fr/cgi-bin/industrie/FranceTech/v_...

Cette définition correspond à l'explication donnée sur ce site anglais :
http://www.glscs.com/archives/8.00.4pl.htm?adcode75

En fait, j'ai aussi trouvé "tierce partie" (pour 3PL) et "quatrième partie" (pour 4PL), mais il semblerait que ces expressions soient beaucoup moins fréquentes. Je me fie davantage au site du gouvernement français.
