You don’t have to look far to find savings, value and improvements driven by transportation management systems (TMS). Best-of-breed TMS solutions (like Manhattan’s TMS) are game changers and deliver a range of competitive advantages for companies of all shapes, sizes and levels of complexity. They are more powerful, scalable, connectable, affordable and justifiable than ever before, with rapid implementation timeframes as well.

Developing solutions for sustainable shipping requires a holistic view. Main engines for future vessels will no longer be used solely for propulsion. Instead, they will be part of an integrated energy system which in turn will be connected to other vessels, ports and even the complete transportation or logistics chain. Sustainable shipping solutions will also depend on the supply of fuels with a minimal carbon footprint, while future engines will need to be capable of using those fuels reliably, efficiently and with low emissions.

Ports and terminals have become increasingly automated, necessitating accurate and reliable technologies to keep operations running smoothly while protecting personnel safety. Avoiding collisions is especially critical to prevent potentially hazardous accidents, costly downtime, and damage to equipment. LiDAR solutions enable safety, security, and efficiency at ports and terminals around the world. With powerful 3D visualisation, long ranges, and resilience to the harshest environment day or night, 3D LiDAR sensors solve a wide range of critical applications including positioning, navigation and collision avoidance, bulk material profiling, and perimeter security and intrusion detection.

Is embedded sustainability a sunk cost? Is it a distraction from core business? The answer to both questions is “absolutely not” sustainable management is a necessary part of a sound management approach. Various leading companies around the world know that embedding sustainability into their core business drives value creation and business success; in fact, these are the same businesses that are outperforming their competitors and markets.

The Covid-19 pandemic, plant shutdowns, delays at borders and transportation bottlenecks have all come together in a perfect storm to create an unprecedented level of disruption in global supply chains. Torpedoed delivery schedules and material shortages have become the norm rather than the exception. All these factors have highlighted the importance of effective supply chain management to keep global commerce moving. Importantly, they have also accelerated the widespread adoption of best practices that are integral to a sustainable supply chain.

Electric vehicle (EV) adoption has reached a tipping point. It is now accelerating toward mass market adoption, particularly in states taking proactive measures to encourage transportation electrification. New York and Massachusetts have made transportation decarbonization a priority: in 2021, New York adopted legislation targeting 100% zeroemission vehicle sales for passenger vehicles by 2035, and both states have adopted the Advanced Clean Trucks regulation, which mandates an increasing number of zeroemission medium- and heavy-duty vehicle (MHDV) sales starting in 2025.
