Understanding the 5 key challenges to connect supply chain data
It is well known for any cargo owner or freight forwarding company who need a helicopter view of the supply chain information and flow, understanding the available data and running scenarios on possible benefits from their data, is key for supply chain optimization, continuous improvement and innovation. In fact, having blind spots can result in […]
Cooperation on intermodal standards vital for supply chain efficiency
Currently the need for supply chain visibility is rising, even more when intermodal transport takes place or shipments are consolidated. Even though efforts have been made in particular modes of transportation, there is the lack of a wider approach, and therefore the requirement to address the subject from an end-to-end perspective, involving the several means […]
Next-Generation Wireless in Logistics. The evolution of wireless networks and the future of the Internet of Things (IoT) in logistics
Even before the current COVID-19 crisis, wireless communication technology was making headlines. Much of the recent interest has focused on 5G mobile data networks that are being rolled out in many countries. 5G promises a host of benefits for end users, businesses, and telecommunications systems operators alike, including higher speeds, greater capacity, and tailored services […]
Roadmap for decarbonising logistics by 2050 and the potential of Physical Internet
Transport as a sector is considered a growing contributor to global climate change. According to the International Transport Forum (ITF), freight transport accounts for about 39% of transport CO2 emissions and around 8% of CO2 emissions worldwide. It’s also a major contributor to air pollution. Road constitutes 62% of emissions, while sea contributes 27%, air […]
What is port-centric logistics?
PCL is a new concept, which largely refers to the transformation of the port into a space of supply chain innovation and collaboration. To meet current challenges, and prepare for future ones, ports and terminals must transform their operations. In doing so, they must become more sustainable and promote collaboration. In practice, this means making data […]
El coronavirus y su impacto en las cadenas de suministro globales
Las grandes crisis globales, como el reciente brote de coronavirus, y su impacto masivo en la economía muestran la necesidad de repensar de inmediato la conceptualización de la actual cadena logística y de suministro. Las estrategias logísticas actuales funcionan, pero no acaban de ser válidas cuando ocurren disrupciones de la cadena logística. Por lo tanto, […]
