How To Solve The Last Mile Problem With Scalable Logistics Technology

The logistics and distribution industry has grown rapidly in recent years and the rise of e-commerce is a key factor. However, logistics companies have also had to adopt new technologies such as scalable logistics technologies to meet the rapid business growth and complex needs of their customer organizations.

I. Why is scalable last-mile logistics technology so important?

You only have to look around to see how fast the logistics and distribution industries are in have grown in recent years.

The global retail industry has grown exponentially, driven by the rise of e-commerce and the multitude of options available to consumers from the comfort of their homes.

This has led to the logistics industry and distribution - those who deliver packages to customers' homes - has also grown. However, with every opportunity that presents itself, challenges arise and they have had to pay special attention to their operations. Delivery over the last mile is of the utmost importance. So much so that customers' preference for one online shopping destination over another is often and increasingly based on efficiency and fulfillment costs.

While many companies have found ways to efficiently fill customer orders by operating efficient last-mile operations, many companies are still struggling. And that battle is multiplying as companies begin to scale their operations.

With e-commerce growth showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon, it's becoming increasingly important for businesses to act together across the last mile. Increasingly, this means deploying modern, automated systems that can meet scaling needs.

~ Studies show that 93% of consumers want to stay informed in real-time throughout the process of delivery, from the start the package exits the warehouse until it arrives at your address ~

II.What are some of the biggest challenges when scaling last-mile logistics?

As experts will often tell you, the scaling phase of business growth is the most difficult phase to tackle. This phase does not have the agility of a startup or the strength and resources of an established company. The challenges are many and their solutions are constantly evolving and under pressure. Common challenges of the expansion phase include:

Increasing volume of orders, resources under constant pressure from

Broadening of the consumer base with myriad rapidly changing tastes

Need for 100% transparency and visibility throughout last-mile operations

Unpredictability of operations 

III. Solving the last mile problem with scalable logistics technology

The complexity and scale of modern logistics and distribution networks require the automation of delivery processes. This is the first step towards efficient last-mile delivery. This optimizes effort, resources, and time in all processes.

Choosing the right logistics technology solution helps with route planning, real-time tracking, customer communication, shipping deliveries, data collection and analysis, measuring actual versus planned performance, etc. Fleet managers can do this from a central Monitor dashboard via cloud technology. This helps to make timely and informed decisions. Simply put, such a solution gives you all the tools you need to successfully scale your business.

1. Route Optimization: One of the main reasons why last-mile delivery is the most expensive leg of the entire supply chain network is that finding the shortest routes between so many stops is extremely difficult. The inefficiencies here would result in vehicles in the fleet ending up traveling much greater distances than they otherwise could have done. This affects operational costs and the time required to complete deliveries.

This is where intelligent logistics technology comes in handy.

Identifies the most optimal route between two points and the most efficient route along a delivery route with all its stops, taking into account several variables such as B. Traffic patterns, weather, type of cargo and vehicle, window delivery to consumer (etc.). Remember that the most efficient route is not the shortest or fastest, but one that balances all variables.

This helps fleet managers optimize their available resources to be more efficient and meet consumer demands fulfilled. demands the best possible.

2. Live Customer Updates: Customer preferences are constantly evolving. In this day and age, however, it has undergone a significant transformation as e-commerce giants like Amazon and Walmart spoil you with ultra-fast delivery, often for free!

That's why they're now asking more about your brands. – Not only do they want fast, reliable shipping at affordable prices, but they also want plenty of options for shipping methods, times, and transit times. Importantly, they also want to have real-time updates on the progress of their packages. All of this is easily achievable with Last Mile logistics software.

3. Real-Time Tracking: One of the biggest improvements modern automated software has over older versions is the ability to track fleet, cargo, and driver movements in real time.

Fleet managers track drivers/vehicles using GPS-enabled technology on a map. They have real-time information about their cargo pick-up, progress, customer delivery, and order completion procedures.

This is an invaluable feature in scalable technology.

Not only can you determine if your original assumptions/forecasts are working correctly, but you can also examine variances in real-time to create more effective plans for the future.

4. Cloud Technology: Well, to sum it up: without the deployment of a logistics solution that focuses on cloud technology, it will be truly impossible for a company to scale its last-mile solutions.

The Good The old days of using local server-based technology are a thing of the past. For starters, an on-premises server system requires multiple other on-premises physical servers at all touchpoints to create an interconnected network/system.

A cloud-based logistics system resides in a cloud that is easily accessible to teams around the world. All data collected is uploaded in real-time and processed based on the customer's process and operational needs. This is not only more efficient but also significantly more profitable. It's also easy to increase usage (e.g.

Server space, number of transactions required) as your business grows. Logistics companies can control thousands of fleets of vehicles, drivers, and equipment from around the world from one central server.

US Developing New Version of Scary Abrams Main Battle Tank - Technology Org

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/us-developing-new-version-of-scary-abrams-main-battle-tank-technology-org/

US Developing New Version of Scary Abrams Main Battle Tank - Technology Org

The M1 Abrams has been in service since 1980. It is still one of the most capable main battle tanks in the world, but even the most common versions the M1A1 and M1A2 are starting to show signs of their design ageing. So, this tank needs to be upgraded, but how?

While the standard M1 Abrams has been in service since 1980, the most common versions are slightly younger. The M1A1 was produced from 1985 to 1992, and the M1A2 – from 1992. In general, the Abrams platform has proven its advantages in battles and so far surpasses the technology of potential enemies. However, it is clear that the Abrams must be developed further, but there are limitations to this.

It’s hard to believe, but the first Abrams weighed 55.7 tonnes. They were equipped with a 105 mm rifled gun and had slightly weaker armour. The M1A1 initially retained this weight, but the M1A1SA grew to 61.3 tonnes and the M1A2 – to 62 tonnes. And that weight gain continued little by little.

The M1A2 SEPv3 Abrams weighs about 67 tonnes. One can look at the tank’s mobility, maintained maximum speed and other dynamic characteristics, but one cannot ignore the fact that, being so heavy, the Abrams is a huge weight on the specialists of military logistics. The US wants to be able to operate globally, but moving such heavy tanks quickly is very difficult.

What is the path of modernization then? Well, upgraded tanks usually get heavier. Additional armour is attached to them because anti-tank weapons, including drones, are being developed faster than tanks. In the past, kilograms were saved by keeping relatively thinner armour on top, but now you can’t even do that – anti-tank drones are cheap and everywhere.

On 2023 September 6 The US Army announced that it had cancelled the planned M1A2 SEPv4 variant and would instead focus resources on the new M1E3 Abrams. The new model will have a modular architecture and will be lighter but with even better protection.

“The Abrams Tank can no longer grow its capabilities without adding weight, and we need to reduce its logistical footprint,” said Maj. Gen. Glenn Dean, Program Executive Officer for Ground Combat Systems. He said that the war in Ukraine showed that crews need to be protected better, but not with added armour.

The M1E3 Abrams is likely to rely heavily on active protection, which is lighter than conventional armour. The US Army promises that the Abrams will remain the most capable main battle tank in the world. The M1E3 version is planned to start service around 2030 and it will continue working well into the next decade.
