Smart Logistics: An Enterprise Architecture Perspective

Logistic enterprises are increasingly becoming smarter and more efficient by using real-time contextual data. A currently unsolved problem for small to medium sized logistic service providers (SMLSPs) is, how to use real time data in existing business processes & IT systems. Enterprise architecture can be used as a tool to solve this problem and aid in adapting existing processes & IT. This would lead to improved operational planning and disruption handling; thereby bringing them closer to becoming smart, context aware logistic enterprises.
