Prologis (Japan Headquarters: Marunouchi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director, Chairman and CEO: Goshu Yamada), a leading global company that owns, operates, and develops logistics real estate, is a leading global company that owns, operates, and develops logistics real estate. We announced that we have signed a “Partnership Agreement for Cooperation in Addressing Logistics Issues in 2024” with Teruji Shimizu, Representative Director, President and CEO
(hereinafter referred to as SSS).
In the future, we will utilize the edge AI sensing platform
“AITRIOS(TM)” provided by SSS to promote logistics DX solution proposals. Specifically, we will proceed with the following
initiatives.
Introduction of gate vehicle number/berth vehicle number recognition solution to understand waiting time and cargo handling time at truck berths
Introducing a solution to understand truck loading rates to optimize vehicle dispatch plans and improve truck transportation shortages, etc.
■ Background to the conclusion of the partnership agreement
In the logistics industry, solving the “2024 problem,” in which transportation capacity is at risk of declining due to overtime restrictions on truck drivers, is an issue. Additionally, in June 2023, guidelines for optimizing logistics and improving productivity will be formulated, stipulating that logistics businesses and shipper businesses should understand the time required for cargo waiting and cargo handling work and strive to shorten it. It was done. Although immediate action is required, current berth management is mainly done by visual inspection and manual recording, and improving efficiency is an issue.
By proposing logistics DX solutions that utilize AITRIOS, Prologis helps customers in logistics facilities and shipper companies improve berth management efficiency and strengthen transportation capacity. ■ Role of each company
