1: Introduction to Transport Management
What are the roles of Information Technology and Communications in transport
• Transport plays an important role in the Information and Communication Technologies (ICT).
• The impact of information technology on the freight transportation system has been significant and
is likely to increase sharply.
• The industry has already implemented cutting-edge technologies to improve customer service and
to reduce expenditures.
• Carriers in all modes will increasingly rely on continuous updates on the location and status of the
vehicles and containers in their system.
• Additional growth in the intermodal freight market requires an increase in information-sharing
across companies.
• Electronic commerce (e-commerce) will probably bring about changes in both the configuration and
profitability of a portion of the freight sector.
