Transportation and logistics

Innovation, automation and sustainability are paramount.

In the transport and logistics industry, the call for innovation has never been louder. Economic uncertainties, labour shortages, rising fuel costs and the constant threat of natural disasters are reshaping the industry, creating demand for cost-effective solutions. Automation stands as the beacon of change, offering unprecedented efficiency and effectiveness.

Shifting customer expectations, particularly the demand for faster delivery or the need for same-day delivery, requires companies to optimise their processes. Automation enables precise parcel tracking, providing customers with real-time information about their shipments. There is also a growing emphasis on sustainability, with efforts to reduce emissions through improved route management and the adoption of electric vehicles necessary.

Despite the promise of automation, many logistics companies hesitate to fully adopt it. Challenges such as price sensitivity, eCommerce dynamics, technology choices, procurement difficulties, evolving distribution strategies and contract-length discrepancies pose hurdles.
