Focus Day: Digitalisation in the Supply Chain - Thursday 30 March 2017

Thursday, April 4th, 2019

12:10 ALL STAR PANEL: How is digitalization about to change the way of working between chemical shippers and their transport and logistics service providers?

How can transport service providers and shippers retain strategic control over their business while interacting via digital freight exchanges or 4PL-led dynamic transport management platforms?
Who will be the future “orchestrator” of our pan-European chemical transport- and logistics networks?
Does this new way of working, taking transport planning decisions far closer to real-time, provide sufficient security of both supply and demand for strategic planning purposes?
Do we need another business model to allow shippers & LSP’s working digitally and transactionally together or is this a 4PL role? Why ? Why not?
How should shippers and LSP’s manage digital projects in a ‘multi-enterprise’ project governance context? Is there a preferred project governance model?
