3. Efficiency through IT Implementation and Utilization of Autonomous Driving Technology
As part of efficiency improvements through IT systems, truck loading and unloading reservations, reception, and calls are being systematized to reduce waiting times. There are reports of initiatives such as using AI for matching to formulate optimal delivery plans and standardizing dispatch operations utilizing the cloud.
With future advancements in autonomous driving technology, the realization of a driverless delivery system could potentially resolve the driver shortage. Flexible adaptability is required.
