What technologies are available to Russian logistics today?
Electronic document management (EDM) has been tested since 2022 in the field of cargo transportation. EDM speeds up settlements with counterparties, provides simple and secure data storage, a high level of information protection, saves time and money: on paper and courier services for document transfer.
Thanks to electronic document management with contractors, Delovye Linii reduced the cost of transportation by reducing empty vehicle runs by 5%, and Russian Post saves up to 250 million rubles a year thanks to the rejection of paper.
State System of Electronic Transportation Documents (GIS EPD) . It can be used to issue electronic consignment notes, accompanying statements, and work orders. Currently, GIS EPD only affects automobile transportation. In the future, it should cover other segments: rail, air, water, and multimodal.
EDI and GIS EDP are important initiatives for the transport and logistics sector, but they are far from the only digital projects that can improve the efficiency, safety and quality of transportation. Businesses have access to other tools and IT solutions.
Platforms and services for organizing transportation that help shippers find freight forwarders and logisticians . The company forms requests for sending cargo and selects a contractor for the task, comparing between available offers according to a large set of criteria: clearly, quickly and in one place.
