Mobile technology, telematics, continuous optimization, and network-based business intelligence and analytics were discussed as important trends in logistics and fleet management. Mobile platforms allow for real-time location tracking, enhanced processes, and proof of delivery. Telematics can help ensure compliance, lower fuel and maintenance costs, and improve safety. Continuous optimization seeks to make smarter decisions, maximize profits, and increase customer satisfaction. The presentation emphasized that logistics is becoming a competitive differentiator and challenged companies to balance time, cost, and quality profitably using emerging technologies.
