Digital Data & Technology Standards:The Glue That Enables Blockchain for Supply Chain

February 19, 2019

Since blockchain entered the supply chain space as an innovative technology, we have seen the prospect of it being the answer to all supply chain woes wax and wane. Amber Road has maintained its position that blockchain is a digital technology that warrants serious attention from companies that seek to be on the cutting edge of global trade automation. In the first two installments of its three-part white paper series, “Blockchain for Supply Chain,” Amber Road achieved a number of important goals. First, there should now be little doubt that Digital Ledger Technology and Smart Contracts have powerful applications in the field of global supply chain management. Driven by the encryption technology that enables the validation of transactions, identification of parties and the time stamping of operational activities, the application of blockchain to global trade has the potential to change the way the world does business.

Trends in Task Automation

whitePaper | June 15, 2022

The global logistics industry of the 21st century has been defined by large global Logistics Service Providers (LSPs) investing in efficiency. One of the main drivers of this has been a slow but steady deployment of software driven task automation; the replacement of repetitive tasks traditionally carried out by an employee with software that automatically performs those functions. These investments have dramatically improved the efficiency of global LSPs and forever reshaped the ways in which they move freight.

Charging Solutions For Battery Electric Trucks

whitePaper | December 22, 2022

The battery-electric truck market is at an early stage, with fewer than 60,000 units in circulation worldwide, including approximately 20,000 units sold in 2021. Ninety percent of these were sold in China, and most were on the lighter side of the category, between 3.5 and 8 tons. However, significant growth in the market is expected in the coming years as more governments and truck manufacturers set combustion engine truck sales phase-out targets, more models become available, and production capacity is increased. A robust charging infrastructure ecosystem, along with sufficient grid capacity, must be deployed early enough not to impede the growth of the electric vehicle fleet.
