New collaboration models: 3PL, 4PL and insourcing
As customer expectations increase, so does the willingness of companies to change their logistics model. Many companies are shifting from the classic 3PL model to 4PL (Fourth-Party Logistics) or even insourced logistics to have more control.
Therefore, LSPs must offer comprehensive, integrated and strategic services that respond to the new challenges: globalization, supply uncertainty and cost pressures.
The role of data and AI in modern logistics, and the challenges of global expansion
Market leaders today are investing in analytics and predictive solutions to respond faster to changes in demand; anticipate disruptions and shortages; and optimize margins and supply costs.
- 85% of organizations mature in data analytics achieve higher sales growth than their competitors
- Companies that implement dynamic pricing models and forecasting increase margins by 5-10%
- 67% of companies believe speed of delivery will be a key factor shaping supply chains in the coming months
58% of B2B suppliers plan to expand into new markets, but as many as 41% find it difficult. Logistics operators can play a key role here as “Expansion Allies” – supporting customers in, among other things:
- Overcoming cultural and regulatory barriers,
- Quickly start operations (e.g., warehouses),
- adaptation to local conditions and demand.
The customer is looking for a holistic service - and immediately
91% of companies expect end-to-end services from a single provider
60% of 3PLs fulfill orders in less than 90 minutes and 1/3 in less than 30 minutes
There is no room for half-measures in tomorrow’s logistics – consistency, automation and responsiveness count. That’s why our one-stop-shop approach is growing in popularity.
Sustainability is no longer a choice - it's a condition
87% of business leaders plan to increase investment in sustainable logistics
More than 70% of retail boards consider ESG as one of their strategic priorities
At HKK, we support customers in:
- Optimizing picking routes and reducing emissions,
- Optimize the packaging process with Cubiscan dimensioning
- Minimizing waste in the supply chain.
Time to act - together towards logistics 2030
Vision 2030 is not a futuristic concept – it is a concrete plan for transformation that is happening before our eyes. Together with Blue Yonder, we are providing technology, knowledge and expertise so that our customers can not only adapt to change, but actively create it.
