Discussion Group 4 – Digitalization & Integration in Logistics
For so many years in the logistics industry, there has been talk that small independant forwarders will disappear….and they have NOT. However, as digital solutions push greater and greater efficiency, and multinationals increasingly serving medium and smaller sized accounts, becoming more digital to compete has never been so important.
But how…..
We had a great conversation between members with the presence of our most recent partner Logixboard, on what the problems to solve are, and how they have been solved.
- Is it inevitable that small forwarders disappear?
- What are the main obstacles in developing digitally as an independant forwarder?
- With the price of a comprehensive digital transformation, how can you look for ROI with your IT choices? Should you?
- ….are integrations really that difficult?…..which was clearly a question for Logixboard to get their teeth into!
Certainly not a closed discussion, but more of our ongoing conversation on “Digitalization in Forwarding”
Our thanks once more to Julian Alvarez, CEO of LOGIXBOARD, our prefered IT partner, who was able to share with us some details of their dashboard to give a superior customer experience for forwarders using CargoWise software. Thanks also for Royal Rotra for encouraging the conversation and making sure Logixboard showed us some of their wares!
Watch out for more cybermeeting conversations on this topic.
