Digitalizing Transport Management

The digitalization of transport management is not an option; it’s a fact. It is a factor embedded in strategic approaches and processes within companies. But how can it be made agile and successful? Where should one start? And how can it be sustained over time?
This book reveals the keys to digital transformation through three vital areas for companies where logistics is an essential part of their activity: operations management, freight rate management, and transport chain visibility.
It presents tools with valuable functions to manage transport orders, plan routes, track shipments, or forecast demand —elements that provide agility, security, and sustainability in operational execution. Advanced systems for logistics are showcased, based on the integration of data management, process automation, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the use of IoT devices.
This book takes us closer to a more differentiated future, where digital solutions enable predictive analyses to identify trends, patterns, and improvement opportunities, contributing to optimizing the effectiveness and efficiency of supply chain management.
