A New Perspective on City Logistics: Concepts, Theory, and Models for Designing and Managing Logistics as a Service

Description du projet

Une nouvelle approche logistique de la mobilité urbaine des marchandises

Les villes subissent des changements importants au niveau de la mobilité des marchandises, un phénomène que s’accompagne de profondes implications. Toutefois, le paradigme actuel de la logistique urbaine (LU) ne reconnaît pas la mobilité des marchandises comme un besoin public, ce qui entrave notre capacité à relever les défis et à saisir les occasions qu’elle présente. Le projet GoodMobility, financé par l’UE, propose une approche centrée sur le réseau, baptisée Wise logistics, qui accorde la priorité à la valeur publique au détriment de la pensée actuelle («Smart thinking») centrée sur les technologies et les entreprises. Le projet vise à créer un réseau logistique qui comporte le matériel et les logiciels nécessaires pour créer une logistique en tant que service et jeter les bases d’une nouvelle théorie de LU. Ce changement de mentalité pourrait aider les villes à mieux comprendre la nature changeante de la mobilité des marchandises et à y faire face plus efficacement.

Objectif

Several social, economic, and technological trends are coming together to revolutionize the way people, products, and services are brought together. Goods are gaining more mobility with drastic implications for cities. The current city logistics (CL) paradigm, which does not consider the mobility of goods a public need, limits our capacity to understand and respond to the challenges and opportunities brought by this profound change. Taking a different perspective, GoodMobility proposes to replace the techno-business-centric smart thinking with network-centric wise logistics that takes the public value as the primary goal and envisions setting up a logistics web with the required infrastructure (hardware) and operating procedures (software) to establish logistics as a service (LaaS). The first objective is to develop public value as a measurement system to assess and guide CL planning and management, which will be achieved with an iterative process, combining multi-criteria decision making, sustainability analysis, simulation, and optimization. The second objective is to develop the principles, models, and tools for LaaS infrastructure design. Novel network optimization methods will be developed for designing the hardware of LaaS to provide orders of magnitude efficiency gains and influence the stakeholder activities to maximize public value. The third objective is to develop a theoretical framework and models for the operating procedures of LaaS, introducing the logistics markets to ensure efficiency and reliability and secure public value in matching logistics demand and supply. Learning-based optimization methods will be developed to manage logistics markets. If successful, GoodMobility will lay the foundations of a new theory of CL with significant scientific and practical implications. The novel ideas, concepts, and methodologies will open up new research perspectives in transport and logistics with far-reaching social, economic, and environmental consequences.
