The lecture was delivered by Mr. Frank
Knoors (Sequoyah Consulting).
Title "Collaborative web-based multimodal
logistics management: Strategies, processes & systems".
ABSTRACT: Recently the European Commission has given
strong support for two intermodal concepts that every
actor in the door-to-door intermodal logistics business
should be aware of: the "Freight integrator"
and "Sea Motorways". The presentation deals
with these subjects and shows the potential impact of
these developments on strategies and business processes
of actors in such intermodal chains. Furthermore, we
will be looking at a system developed by the European
5th Framework project "D2D" which supports
freight forwarders and freight integrators to manage
door-to-door logistics. The project "Polish Logistics
Community System" funded by the Flemish Government
investigates how such a system (which is aimed at the
chain manager) can be turned in to a portal that supports
all actors in such
intermodal chains. The presentation reports on the advancement
of this project.
