Abstract

The aim of the chapter is to analyze transport management (mainly planning, but also monitoring and executing) of the international supply chains based on digital platform model. This case study analyzes platform that supports the information sharing on different modes of the transport available mainly within Europe area. It should be underlined that multimodal network accessed by the platform supports both sustainable transport development within the company and its supply chains and meets requirements of digital economy. This subject of analysis is part of the ChemMultimodal project implemented under Interreg Central Europe Programme between 2016 and 2019. The analyses are done on the case of chemical sector supply chain and its ability to response for challenges of sustainability within logistics activities. The developed platform (Intermodal Links) helped supply chains being more sustainable by supporting usage of multimodality and—as a consequence—decreasing CO2 emissions caused by transport by more than 50%.
