A clear and accessible guide to e-logistics focussing on its strategic role in today's dynamic global environment and key technological developments within air, rail and road freight.

E-Logistics serves as the nerve system for the whole supply chain and enables smooth information flow within and between organizations. This new and updated edition provides the latest and most comprehensive coverage on digitalization in logistics and supply chain. It covers all transport modes and the role of ICT in supporting an integrated freight and supply chain network.

E-Logistics provides a cross-academic and industry perspective with leading academics and practitioners as contributing authors. A variety of successful e-logistics business approaches are discussed covering a range of commercial sectors and transport modes. Subsequent chapters address in depth support systems for B2C and B2B e-commerce and e-fulfilment, warehouse management, RFID, electronic marketplaces, global supply network visibility and service chain automation. Industry case studies are used to support the discussion. The new edition also covers emerging technologies such as AI, machine learning and autonomous vehicles, Internet of Things, Robotics, drone and last mile deliveries.

Recenzijas

"The challenges posed by COVID-19 have sharpened focus on the need for supply chains that are not only more efficient and environmentally sustainable but also more resilient. E-Logistics provides insights into the effective deployment of technology to create the digital supply chains of the future that will make a real difference in terms of competitive advantage." * Edward Sweeney, Professor of Logistics and Systems; Head, Department of Engineering Systems & Supply Chain Management (ESSCM), Aston University * "With rapid advances in new technologies and the growing pressures to transform global supply chains, this book provides an excellent and timely overview of the critical role of e-logistics. It is ideal for both practitioners and academics who want to understand how e-logistics is changing the way global supply chains are designed, operated and transformed." * Dr. Andrew Lahy, Solutions Design Director, DSV *
