Overview
The logistics and transportation industry encompasses all activities related to the delivery and transportation of products, based on their origin and destination. Due to the supply and demand shock from the COVID-19 pandemic, the industry suffered enormous losses in the last two years. The suspension of economic activities, as a result of quarantine in countries, disrupted global production chains and, therefore, affected the industry as a whole. It has never been more challenging to plan strategies, make demand predictions, and conduct network studies. However, technological advancements have enabled the growth of the industry to recover and directed it towards a more sustainable future.
Trends
Agility
Businesses are becoming more accelerated due to the constant development of new technologies. Transportation companies must keep pace with this trend if they want to remain competitive in the market.
Real-Time Data
The growing demand for e-commerce has facilitated investments in delivery tracking, which is now becoming increasingly close to real-time. AMAZON stands out in updating tracking information, which is already almost real-time, and other companies should follow this example.
Logistics 4.0
Logistics 4.0 consists of a series of technological improvements that automate processes, making them more cohesive and efficient. These improvements should optimize supply chain processes in the future.

It’s no use having a spectacular strategic plan nor the best communication in the segment if there is no product on the shelf, if the packaging doesn’t open, or if technical assistance doesn’t work.
