DIGITALIZATION AND TRANSPARENCY: INNOVATIVE ACTIVITY IN THE MANAGEMENT OF LOGISTICS ACTIVITIES
Abstract
The publication highlights the importance of digitalization and automation in the logistics sector. It is noted that the use of the latest technological solutions helps to increase productivity and reduce costs, especially through the automation of processes in warehouses and transport logistics. The author analyzes the existing challenges, including infrastructure constraints, significant costs of implementing modern technologies and lack of qualified personnel, lack of common standards and interoperability, regulatory and legal barriers, and legislation that does not always keep pace with the development of digital technologies. Special attention is paid to the difficulties of integrating new solutions with existing infrastructure, which creates additional barriers for small and medium-sized businesses. Practical advice on how to reduce costs and improve logistics processes is highlighted, which enhances the applied value of the study. It is substantiated that one of the factors of increasing the efficiency of logistics activities is its transparency. As a result, the author emphasizes the need to form a model of logistics activities which would combine logistics principles with innovative approaches to doing business. An important prerequisite for such changes is the introduction of digital technologies in the financial, economic and business activities of enterprises. Thanks to digitalization, companies will be able to increase their efficiency by automating and optimizing processes, which will help them to increase their competitiveness in the logistics services market. Based on the implementation of digital processes, companies will be able to improve the quality of their operations by automating and optimizing workflows, which will make them more competitive in the logistics services market. It should be noted, that the introduction of modern digital technologies in logistics will lead to changes in business models and strategic plans; improve interaction between all participants in the logistics process; improve labor productivity, thereby increasing the competitiveness of logistics companies in the market.
