HUAWEI CLOUD Helps Logistics Enterprises Upgrade Intelligently

Dubai has emerged as a major trading hub connecting East and West thanks to its unique location and world-class transport infrastructure. As Asia and Europe’s transport and logistics nexus of, Dubai is home to one of the world’s busiest ports, while Dubai International Airport has for in the past few years grown to become the busiest international airport in the world. At the same time, the prevalence of robust e-commerce infrastructure has encouraged many foreign logistics companies to enter the Middle East market. For instance, many Chinese delivery companies now operate in the UAE, which has helped Chinese enterprises access Middle East and surrounding countries’ markets and facilitated online shopping from China for Chinese companies as well. As a result, Dubai has become the world’s leading logistics, trade, and re-export hub. The logistics industry is a largely off-line with numerous unconnected assets such as equipment, vehicles, and buildings. Therefore, it faces significant pain points such as high costs and low efficiency. Specifically, the traditional logistics industry is faced with information asymmetry, repeated and non-interconnected network construction. This has led to information silos, which leads to difficulty

in guaranteeing reliability and significantly increases O&M costs. In addition, there are too many links on the journey from the manufacturer to the consumer

which leads to colossal waste of logistics resources within the chain. This traditional manual model can no longer meet modern customers’ requirements. and more and more customers now demand flexible, agile, and customizable logistics solutions. In addition, logistic companies are facing problems such as a shortage of courier workers, outdated campus management, and low delivery efficiency. These enterprises urgently need to adopt higher

levels of digitization and intelligence into their processes to improve operational efficiency and reduce labor costs.

With the popularity of multinational e-commerce and competition in the marketplace, a new logistics business model will emerge:

• Globalization of Operations: The emergence of e-commerce accelerates the integration of the global economy and leads to the rise of multinational logistics enterprises.

• Systematic Network: The logistics network is one of the main characteristics of logistics operations in the e-commerce era. A seamless logistics network is the foundation of a modern and efficient logistics system.

• Supply Chain Simplicity: Market competition in the industry involves competition between one supply chain and another. Internet technology provides information support for supply chains, eliminates redundant links, and simplifies them..

• Service Integration: Service level is the most important competitive factor in the logistics industry. Technology providers need to provide integrated logistics

services so that users can benefit from an efficient and smooth delivery system. Therefore, an intelligent upgrade will be the inevitable shift for the logistics industry. The development and application of cloud technologies such as Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, and IOT will bring a new wave of industry evolution to the logistics industry and become a key enabler for reducing costs and increasing efficiency.
