Écrit par Elorri THICOIPE le . Publié dans Non classé.

Methodological Guide for Implementation and Management

After a year of collaborative work, our guidance document is designed to help shippers and logistics professionals implement and manage circular supply chains.

“67% of companies plan to increase their investments in circularity over the next three years…

… and members of France Supply Chain are no exception!”

Anaïs Leblanc, Executive Partner at Citwell and project leader

This methodological guide draws on six workshops conducted by Citwell —a consulting firm specializing in operations and supply chain transformation—with members of France Supply Chain. The findings are structured around the following pillars:

  1. Value model and sharing
  2. Multi-locality sizing
  3. Forecasting and workloads
  4. Circularity management
  5. Operational management, continuous improvement & data
  6. Organization

To ensure the richness and robustness of the workshops, participating companies were carefully selected to represent a diversity of sizes, structures, and sectors.

This publication is the result of this collective effort, written collaboratively, and is just the beginning of the journey.

A huge thank you to Epalia, Michelin, Orange, Lizee, Rev Mobilities, LRPI, and Valused.

White Paper Volume I

This 1st white paper assists in identifying the relevant data and level of precision needed to calculate CO₂ equivalent emissions across the entire Supply Chain. It also highlights initial levers to activate for decarbonization.

This analysis is organized along several key axes:

  • the various stages of the Supply Chain;
  • the different emission scopes;
  • the level of digital maturity.

This publication is the result of the work carried out by the Digital Lab, enriched by contributions from its members, both operational and expert in the Supply Chain, as well as by carbon footprint assessment initiatives. A second volume will be published in 2025.

After presenting the group’s working methodology, explore the description of data categories and an analysis of the data required to calculate emissions across an end-to-end Supply Chain.

The objective of this document is to member companies tools (a guide and a grid) to :

1) Measure your current maturity of Supply Chain activities

2) Build an understanding of what advanced maturity levels mean and bring (what is possible)

3) Select the most appropriate level for the site / country to reach

4) Develop your roadmap

This assessment can be done at the level of each site or at the level of one country (Supply Chain focus).

Find out how to exploit the full potential of this tool in this video (application in the customs bonded warehouse, benefits, Level 5 testimonials, etc.).

Introducing a framework toward sustainability goals in a supply chain 4.0 ecosystem

Écrit par Elorri THICOIPE le . Publié dans Non classé.

This article received the Best Article Award in Sustainable Supply Chain in 2024 ex aequo with a study on “Cognitive digital twins for freight parking management in last mile delivery under smart cities paradigm”.

This prize is awarded jointly by France Supply Chain by Aslog’s Lab SupplyChain4Good and AIRL-SCM, the association of French-speaking researchers in logistics and SCM.

The business and research community are called upon to take concrete actions to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We state that Industry 4.0 technologies are the innovative capability that should be supported to move supply chains from their linear model, known for its high energy and resource consumption, to a circular model where technology replaces intermediaries and drives operations towards sustainability and efficiency.

The study reflects the impact of integrating Industry 4.0 technologies on each of the processes in the Supply Chain Operations Reference Model (SCOR) to construct the supply chain 4.0 and links the resulting capabilities of this transformation to the potential achievements of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

This paper draws on recent studies and secondary data sources to provide a framework that could help academics and practitioners reduce tensions related to the maturity level of Industry 4.0 technologies and foster concrete implementations to achieve sustainability goals.

Cognitive digital twins for freight parking management in last mile delivery under smart cities paradigm

Écrit par Elorri THICOIPE le . Publié dans Non classé.

This article received the Best Article Award in Sustainable Supply Chain in 2024 ex aequo with a study on “Introducing a framework toward sustainability goals in a supply chain 4.0 ecosystem”.

This prize is awarded jointly by France Supply Chain by Aslog’s Lab SupplyChain4Good and AIRL-SCM, the association of French-speaking researchers in logistics and SCM.

This paper examines the Freight Parking Management Problem (FPMP) of last-mile delivery within the context of Smart Cities where objects are managed by Digital Twins. Specifically, we investigate how Cognitive Digital Twins – Digital Twins with augmented semantic capabilities – can enhance instantly updated knowledge of parking connectivity to optimize logistics operations planning and urban resource allocation.

We present a four- layer architectural framework to integrate individual logistics objects and systems into Smart Cities at a semantic level, with underlying enabling technologies and standards including Property Graph, Web Ontology Language (OWL), and Web of Things.

Next, we conduct a case study of parcel delivery in Paris using a real-life Digital Twins platform called Thing in the future (Thing’in) by Orange France, coupled with an agent-based simulation model on AnyLogic, to demonstrate a real-world application of our approach.

The results suggest that semantics- enabled Digital Twins connectivity can increase the comprehensive understanding of the delivery environment and enhance cooperation between heterogeneous systems, ultimately resulting in improved logistics efficiency, reduced negative externalities, and better utilization of resources.

Furthermore, this work showcases potential new business services for logistics service providers and provides managerial insights for city planners and municipal policymakers. An actual mobile application prototype is presented to showcase the applicability of the work.

Securing your intralogistics : your priorities in 2024

Écrit par Elorri THICOIPE le . Publié dans Non classé.

The 2024 barometer of intralogistics expectations and priorities for the logistics ecosystem and manufacturers.

Secure…

… our commitment is to explore ways of securing the Supply Chain in the future.

The word means different things depending on your products, your business and your company’s development.

To make sure we were on the right track, we began by surveying our members, and more broadly the logistics industry (via industry newsletters), in order to analyze their testimonies through a prism we had developed.

Then we set out to illustrate what security could look like, and to position your expectations, in order to decide on our future roadmap.

Here are the priorities that emerge for 2024.
