Logistics

The logistics impact area addresses how CCAM affects the efficiency, effectiveness, and adaptability of the logistics process. It examines how CCAM can change the freight transport, and material flows in supply chain processes.

The logistics impact area examines how CCAM can affect goods transport in different environments, including on public roads with mixed traffic and in confined areas such as ports and terminals. CCAM has the potential to improve the reliability of operations and increase their efficiency, for example by optimising energy use and allowing operations during off-peak hours. In addition, worker safety could be enhanced.

CCAM impacts on logistics can be studied for entire logistics chains, or for their separate parts, for example logistics operations on public roads, in warehouses, terminals, ports, customs or interchanges.
