On the 30th of November, FEPORT attended the Data Logistics Festival which took place in Brussels. The event gathered a variety of stakeholders interested in overcoming existing bottlenecks in data sharing practices. The universal challenge of insufficient supply chain visibility demands a pragmatic approach, urging stakeholders to take grounded action. FEDeRATED's call resonates with the imperative to enhance EU operational capabilities in data-based logistics for both business and public authorities.
The event showcased the collaborative endeavours of the 15 partners in the FEDeRATED project across six EU member states: Finland, Italy, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Spain, and Sweden. These partners shared the results of years of work promoting real time logistics data sharing across 15 countries since the project's initiation in 2019 under the Digital Transport and Logistics Forum. The EU CEF FEDEeRATED projects aims to establish a secure, open, and neutral infrastructure for data sharing through practical Living Labs.
During the conference, two main questions were addressed:
- What works and what does not work in decentralized data-based logistics?
- How should an operational framework to realize seamless multimodal freight transport and logistics look like?
The partners in the FEDeRATED project are pursuing data driven logistics based on 21st century technology insights and preferably based on opensource availability.
