Your Obstacles.

The Transport and Logsitics industry face a wide variety of challenges, and your equipment and technology must support you, your operation and your colleagues every step of the way.  

Labour ShortAges:

As e-commerce continues to boom, there are an every growing number of job opportunities throughout the supply chain. However, filling these new roles is a challenge. City & Guilds released a report estimating the logistics sector will face a 400,000 staff shortfall by 2026. The shortage in workers is said to be due to a “perfect storm” of factors, including a backlog of driving tests for HGV drivers cancelled during the pandemic and Brexit with new immigration rules exacerbating existing shortages.

Attracting staff isn’t the only issue, retaining and training staff has also become a problem, all whilst customer expectations are rising.

Safe Transportation of Dangerous or Valuable Goods

Dangerous goods account for about 8% of the total amount of goods transported in the UK. The transportation of these goods involves risks related to traffic accidents, climate conditions, inappropriate containers/packing materials, or vehicle breakdowns. Ensuring the safety of the materials  requires attention at all stages of transportation, including packing, labeling, documentation, and transportation. Various departments across organisations must work together to ensure safe transportation, and measures such as road control, speed restrictions, traffic control, and infrastructure upgrades are essential.

Sustainability Shift:

The UK’s freight system has a critical role to play in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving air quality. As an industry as a whole, transport and logistics contribute to  34% of the UK’s total greenhouse gas emissions in 2022, making it the largest contributor among sectors.

As the pressure to meet climate targets grows, the decarbonisation becomes vital

Digital Transformation:

Digital transformation in the warehouse has become a key focus for businesses seeking to optimise their operations and stay competitive in a rapidly evolving market. The move away from paper-based systems towards digital technologies like warehouse management systems (WMS), RFID tracking, and barcode scanning has streamlined processes, reduced manual errors, and improved overall efficiency. Real-time data and analytics allow for better decision-making, optimising resource allocation, and enhancing productivity.
