Global connected logistics market by software services
This segment includes on-premise and cloud-based software services used to meet the requirements of connected logistics. Software solutions offered by the vendors in the market can be integrated with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and other applications and system software installed in the connected logistics facilities.
Software vendors in the market such as SAP and Oracle offer connected logistics solutions for database management systems and IT security. Earlier the solutions were offered on the on-premise software deployment model. However, the trend is now changing due to the advent of the cloud computing model. Vendors are also offering cloud-based connected logistics solutions to attract logistics service providers that seek low-cost and flexible information technology solutions.
Global connected logistics market by IT services
System integration services, consultation services, IT support and maintenance services, and application management services are used extensively in the connected logistics market. The system integration services help enterprises to integrate their existing IT systems with new IT systems to promote seamless data and information exchange.
“Consulting services are mated with IT planning to enhance the performance of the technologies deployed in connected logistic services. Application management services manage the enterprise application on mobile devices for the remote tracking system. Finally, IT support services manage the end-to-end IT systems used throughout the supply chain,” says Sharan.
Global connected logistics market by hardware devices
Connected logistics systems require hardware such as tracking and monitoring devices. The hardware segment includes radio frequency identification (RFID) sensors, smart connected devices, communication and networking devices such as switches, routers, and wireless communication devices, biometric devices, fleet management devices, vehicle telematics, and other hardware devices used to set up connected logistics.
