Data science and analytics have the potential to transform the logistics industry, which is often perceived to be better off with legacy systems. Data-driven logistics organizations know how to create value by applying the knowledge from analytics to improve efficiency and competition.
According to a report by alliedmarketresearch.com, the global supply chain analytics industry was valued at $4.53bn in 2019 and is expected to reach $16.82bn by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 17.9 percent during the period.
The unprecedented increase in demand for logistics analytics can be attributed to the rising volume of business data across sectors such as manufacturing, retail, and transportation, the increasing need for improving operational and supply chain efficiencies, and the growing adoption of big data technologies.
With advanced logistics analytics tools, businesses can interactively derive insight from vast volumes of streaming data for real-time analytics on inventory optimization, route optimization, and transport analytics. By applying advanced transportation analytics, route planning and optimization, just-in-time delivery optimization, and condition-based equipment maintenance, logistics professionals can gain deeper, faster, actionable insights into operations, customers, and markets. Supply chain visibility technologies such as GPS transponders, RFID tags, truck telematics systems, and electronic logging devices enable logistics companies to track the location and status of packages all the way from the POS to the end customer.
