There’s no doubt that technology has disrupted the way of doing business.

Companies are now focusing more on automating every process than doing things manually. Certainly, transportation and logistics industry is not immune to this on-going change. The job expected of transportation and logistics companies are no longer restricted to pick, pack, loading and delivery.

And other errors that may emerge due to the use of IT based systems. To make things more difficult, transportation and logistics companies are now also expected to provide minute-by-minute tracking service. From natural disasters to man-made crisis, the industry is now facing a lot of challenges that were non-existent a few years back.
