Modern Mobile Infrastructure in Transport and Forwarding

Abstract

AbstractTransport is one of the main branches of the economy and the costs associated with transport affect the prices of various goods and services to a large extent. Companies are constantly striving to optimize costs related to transport. Today they are largely dependent on fuel prices, but also on labor costs. Innovations in the field of transport solutions will be a response to emerging problems in the field of transport services. One of the directions of transport development is mobile infrastructure and autonomous vehicles for transport. In the article authors analyze the use of IT systems in transport and forwarding, and present the directions of innovations in this area. The article was based on the analysis of the literature and questionnaire research. The research methods used allowed to identify the problems faced by transport companies and those that use transport as their auxiliary activity. The main idea of this article is the need to implement standardized transport management systems. The aim of the article is to analyze the use of IT systems in transport and shipping and to present the possibilities and directions of innovation in this area. The article presents the level of use of IT systems dedicated to transport. It was based on the results of surveys conducted by the authors. The result of the conducted research is the idea of implementing a single IT system for transport, which will cover all aspects of transport management.
