Impact of technology on Logistics

Technologies include Bar Coding, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Voice Recognition. Auto ID can be used
for tracking the containers, packages, cartons or a truck carrying the goods on time bound dispatches to the
customers. The benefits of Auto ID include accuracy, cost saving, speed and convenience of data storage and
processing of information.
Bar Coding advantages

4. Communication Technology
Communication, either oral or written has a very crucial role in business success. Emerging communications technologies,
which are enablers to superior customer service are leading to competitiveness through the speed and accuracy in
communication.
EDI technology is used for transfer of business documents from one computer to other computer. Business documents
such as invoices, cheques, and challans are sent electronically from one organization to another. In fact EDI is a drive
towards paperless document transfer or transactions.
The difference between an email message and EDI message is that, Email is composed and interpreted manually, while an
EDI message is composed using one software and interpreted by other software.
EDI technology in logistics
•Faster transactions- real time document transfer in the supply chain.
•Just-in-Time manufacturing technique can be adopted.
•Reduction in transaction cost due to paperless operations.

Altering a suit is a much more palatable choice than designing it yourself. The same is true for software.

7. Obstacle to Logistics Management System implementation
Most businesses that ship frequently have established contracted rates with less-than-truckload carriers, either
directly or through a third party. Yet even with all of the third-party research available today outlining the benefits of
using a technology solution to manage contracted rates, many shippers have not adopted a TMS.
Decision makers typically have a long list of excuses not to implement a logistics management software, such as their
current process works fine. Logistics Management solutions are too expensive. The company tried using a logistics
management system before and it didn't work well with their processes. They have a million-dollar freight spend
budget, but can't spend a penny on logistics software or freight management software is too difficult to deploy.
But on-demand logistics management have largely eliminated the cost and resource constraints companies have
traditionally faced in implementing new technology and continuous improvement initiatives.
Shippers adapting to the ever-changing transportation environment are seeing improved productivity and significant
cost savings coming out of their transportation department by implementing transportation management solutions.
