The focus is on the integrative consideration of Digital Supply Chains, Intelligent Transportation Systems and Automated Driving. finished As the volume of traffic is increasing steadily, road operators have to face ever new challenges, due to the fact that there is neither more space nor budget for traffic infrastructure measures. Within the framework of the project ‘SmartFleet LivingLab’ a fleet of intelligently networked vehicles should be established, which should deliver vehicle real-time data in order to give information concerning the current traffic situation. On this basis, in a further step, newly developed traffic management measures respectively systems should provide the possibility for fleet operators as well as all for other affected stakeholders to benefit from less traffic jam situations. finished What is the impact of truck platooning on pavement condition and the counter-effects of variations in track off-sets with following trucks on platooning’s positive slipstream effect? This research question has been answered in SPURVARIATION. finished The aim of the project TRIUMPH is to develop a concept of an intelligent multimodal communication hub which is capable of connecting all involved parties in the multimodal transport chain by using new standards of electronic data interchange (EDI-standards) and realtime traffic data (ITS). Due to the reduction of complexity by standardization and the elimination of inefficiencies a higher information value is achieved which builds the basis for further transshipment and storage process optimization. ongoing Logistics value-added networks are complex structures consisting of independent corporate partners, the relationships between these partners and a large number of stakeholders. In order to oversee or optimize these networks in the context of global competition, state-of-the-art methods of data acquisition, visualization and analysis are required. This represents a major challenge for many SMEs. The aim of the project is to establish a competence network on this topic. finished Globalization and the resulting omnipresent competition are forcing companies into merciless competition. One way to gain a competitive advantage is to offer a very broad product portfolio and adapt it to customer requirements. This can lead to a variant explosion and enormous complexity within the supply chain. The aim of SYRI is the first systemic risk assessment in real-time in food value-added networks that are critical for the supply of the population. These networks consist of thousands of actors and are digitally mapped from the origin of the food, via the processors and logistics, to the end consumers in retail, catering, and the hotel industry, and are assessed in real time concerning systemic supply risks. finished The prediction of company relevant key indicators is an important as well as difficult task for planners. The large number of potential influencing factors, its change over time and especially the increasing international dependencies between companies makes the preparation of valid forecasts difficult. Concerning possible future trends and the identification of relevant indicators regarding these trends is the core element of FInca. ongoing The task of the research field Supply Chain Planning (SCP) is to handle on the one hand uncertainties in the planning processes such as process uncertainties (e.g. delivery times, production lead times) and customer uncertainties (e.g. product, amount, customer required lead time). On the other hand SCP supports to increase the performance of the supply chain. ongoing SOPHIE – resilience of supply chains to cascading effects from digital space. ongoing The aim of the CySeReS SME research project is to support small and medium-sized enterprises in IT security, cyber security and resilience with a focus on the supply chain. The needs of the participating SMEs will be surveyed and analysed, on the basis of which a best practice guide and a maturity model will be developed. In the future, this will also be able to support SMEs outside the project. ongoing The DataSChare project aims to identify and concretise industrial supply chain data spaces to increase knowledge about data spaces in the supply chain. This will be achieved through a multi-level methodological approach based on qualitative (workshops, interviews, stakeholder analysis) as well as quantitative (online surveys) methods. ongoing Closely coordinated and optimised processes make the transport and logistics sector highly susceptible to disruptions of any kind, whether short-term or long-term. Data in particular can help companies to react to these and thus be considered resilient. A solution for this is offered by a concept developed in the project of a "logistics and resilience data circle" for external data exchange. ongoing Early detection of supply disruptions and bottlenecks is essential to ensure that economic supply networks are resilient. In addition to the critical infrastructure, other key companies are equally important to maintain the supply. The project aims is to identify these and derive recommendations for action so that resilience can be ensured in future crises. ongoing The aim of the SSCCS project is to ensure the resilience of supply chains to cyber attacks. This is done in a structured, interdisciplinary approach based on real use cases and takes into account both highly integrated SCs and such low organizational levels. ongoing In SYRI we develop a data-driven simulation methodology to locally quantify actual food supply losses for the population that result from the cascading of supply disruptions. The methodology is immediately policy relevant as a fact-driven and generalizable crisis management tool. ongoing Complex and global value networks consist of multiple actors, between which processes take place and a large amount of information is exchanged. The goal of the project is to develop a supply chain control tower solution that allows to consolidate, analyze and visualize the most important data in an information cockpit to enable companies in their daily operations to gain control over their value network. ongoing The pandemic situation poses a multitude of challenges for decision makers in Austrian politics as well as for actors in the logistics sector. The focus is on food supply security for the Austrian population. The related supply chains need special attention in order to proactively respond to events that could affect the security of supply. ongoing The Erasmus+ project ANGIE aims to establish an academic network to raise awareness about climate change, shift perspectives, and provide solutions for the transition to environmentally friendly processes with a low carbon footprint. ongoing Currently, there is no formal structure and or culture in the inland waterway transport (IWT) sector for upskilling. 1System4IWT aims to build a learning system that will act as a solution for ensuring and enduring continuity of education & training for IWT students and workers and generate a „personalized learning experience”. The project will focus on developing commons resources, that meet the needs of nowadays trends and challenges for (incoming) staff (boatmen) in the IWT sector. ongoing The project LOGMASTER aims to develop of a joint master programme study framework in Supply Chain Management and Logistics Level 7 to address the requirements in terms of competencies elaborated by European Logistics Association (ELA) in the European Logistics Association Qualification Standards (ELAQF). ongoing MultiRELOAD focusses on the specific role and challenges of inland ports & hubs as multimodal freight nodes in contributing to reaching Europe’s greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction target of at least 55 % by 2030, thereby shifting a substantial part of the 75% of inland freight carried today by road in the EU to inland waterways and to rail, and by increasing operational efficiency, safety and reliability of existing infrastructures (through digitalization) - thereby significantly reducing GHG emissions. finished RETrans (Research and Education on Transport Logistics) is a project sponsored by the bmvit (Austrian Federal Ministry for Transport, Innovation and Technology) and the SCHIG (Schieneninfrastruktur-Dienstleistungsgesellschaft mbH) with the objective to create a competence center for traffic logistics in cooperation with stakeholders from economy, research and the public sector. ongoing REWWay is the result of a cooperation between Logistikum Steyr and viadonau (The company viadonau is responsible for the Austrian Part of the Danube). The aim of the project is to promote the topic of inland waterway logistics in national and international research and educational facilities. In fact, the focus is to train logisticians with knowledge on eco-friendly inland navigation and its connection to other modes of transport. finished DANTE aims at identifying and eliminating the administrative barriers for inland waterway transport (IWT) on the Danube & its navigable tributaries as a joint initiative of the private sector and the national public authorities responsible for these barriers. The project partners will develop good practices and guidelines for effective administration of IWT activities in relation to the identified barriers. finished Today there is still a lack of transparency and knowledge on how to integrate green Danube Navigation into sustainable transport solutions. Increased institutional and organisational capacity will help equip public service providers with a critical mass of information and support to understand (=mind shift) and use (=modal shift) Danube transport. Besides, there is a shortage of qualified personnel on-board inland vessels and fragmented legal framework governing skills and qualifications in the Danube inland transport sector and hindering recognition of qualifications and mobility of work force. Besides, there is a shortage of qualified personnel on-board inland vessels and fragmented legal framework governing skills and qualifications in the Danube inland transport sector and hindering recognition of qualifications and mobility of work force. finished DAPhNE aims to facilitate a balanced development of Danube Ports as eco-friendly, well accessible multimodal hubs for the transport system of the region and to turn Danube Ports into buzzing economic centres functioning as catalysts for economic growth and creation of high value jobs. The project will contribute to stepwise close the existing gaps between the 70 Danube ports located along the Danube River that deal with various challenges in the field of port administration and port development. finished The project deals with the implementation of liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a fuel and transport good for shipping and develops a finished LOGIN – The project LOGIN aims to introduce new EQF 4 level qualification dedicated to the Operators who develop logistics related to manufacturing (Logistics Technologist - LOT) and the related finished "Synchromodality" is a new transport concept that promotes the resource-saving and optimized use of all modes of transport. By an optimal use of the existing transport capacities, a modal shift towards sustainable modes of transport (rail, inland and waterway) can be achieved. Within the research area "Sustainable Transport Systems" the requirements for synchromodality in Austria will be analyzed. finished PROMINENT effectively promotes innovation in IWT by further developing the most promising greening technologies and concepts towards standardization and modularization as well as developing measures to overcome barriers to innovation and greening in the inland navigation sector. The research results and findings will be translated into a roll-out plan, which paves the way for full-scale implementation until 2020. finished The linking of four modes of transport (water, rail, road and air) to multimodal transport chains is cur-rently a largely unknown topic. However, the implementation of quattromodality in freight transport bears the potential of economical, environmental and social impacts due to enhanced transport options. Research- and practice-relevance of quattromodal nodes are analyzed in a probe. finished SynChain aimed at analyzing synchromodality in detail such that a profound understanding of the underlying key enablers can be gained. In addition, awareness training for stakeholders in the transport sector has been started. Based on the obtained insights technical, organisational and systemic basic conditions for a successful application of synchromodality will be defined, which shall be implemented in follow-up projects. ongoing RESISTANT – more resilient military logistics on the basis of an end-to-end digitized, dislocated and autonomous supply chain
