The new DACHSER magazine is here!

Logistics is a hive of innovation, with solutions now becoming part of day-to-day work more and more quickly. These include alternative powertrains, a wide range of digital applications, the clever use of data, and new, autonomous helpers in transit terminals and warehouses.

DACHSER magazine 03/22

Progress in technology is reshaping the sector. This issue’s cover story, however, focuses on an even more important factor for the future: people. After all, without well-trained, motivated colleagues it is impossible for logistics to get anything moving—and that applies to shipments as well as innovations. Turn to page 6 to get to know three colleagues who represent the approximately 32,000 DACHSER employees working tirelessly for our customers around the world.

A prime example of this commitment to customers can be found starting on page 16. DACHSER works for the Swiss company Georg Fischer in many different places worldwide. In this issue, we feature Fredrik Rånge and his team at the Jönköping warehouse in Sweden. This location supplies all of northern Europe with every kind of piping system product—quickly, reliably, and with plenty of passion and commitment.

Innovations are an essential part of ensuring that DACHSER employees can continue to give our customers their best. The @ILO terminal has the potential to become a new milestone on this journey. This “transit terminal of the future” uses data matrix codes, scanning units on the terminal’s ceiling, AI‑based algorithms, and special software to create a digital twin—and with it a new level of transparency. Turn to page 22 to learn more about the technology and its potential, and come with us inside the two pilot facilities.

This latest issue also looks at another important component in promoting innovation and transparency. In an interview, CEO Burkhard Eling and CDO Stefan Hohm explain why DACHSER is a part of the Open Logistics Foundation, and how important digitalization—implemented in accordance with common standards—is for our company and the industry as a whole.

Current situation in India and the impact on DACHSER’s operations

Regarding the current situation in India, we would like to give an update about DACHSER’s operations in India. The situation as of today, April 28, 2021, is as follows:

Most branch offices across India are being kept closed as a precautionary measure due to the sudden rise of COVID cases. Our teams are working from home, with only skeletal staff at the offices and hence there are likely to be delays in responses due to the ongoing crisis. As a consequence of the lockdown, there are some operational impacts for air, sea, customs clearance and domestic trucking.

Air Freight:

  • Most countries have barred passenger traffic from India leading to no passenger carrying flights operating on International routes from/to India
  • This has created some additional constraint on already stressed space availability situation
  • Rates are bound to inch upwards for all sectors
  • Transit times too have increased as a consequence of capacity crunch

Sea Freight:

  • Sea freight was already facing the challenges due to the Suez Canal blockage end of March.
  • Ports and terminals are functioning normally, but vessel schedules are impacted by the Suez Canal blockage as well as the sudden rise of COVID cases in India.Therefore delays are expected. Customers are advised to factor in delays of 1-2 weeks while planning their inventories.
  • We expect more delays in communication or operations due to increasing COVID infections among staff at ports, customs, CFS and shipping lines.

Customs:

  • We do not have any unexpected disruptions in cargo movement in India, nor is any work stoppage expected at present.
  • Customs clearance activities are functional at the movement.
  • Customs is working with less manpower, no Customs Brokers is allowed to meet the customs officials, all processes is done faceless and things are moving in slow phase.

At DACHSER, we have undertaken significant measures to ensure our employees’ health and safety, at the same time continue to manage our day-to-day operations with minimal impact to our customers’ supply chains. Our teams are working diligently by all possible means in these testing times to assist and to overcome the challenges being faced.

Please rest assured that we will keep you updated of any changes to the current situation. In case of questions, please feel free to contact your local DACHSER representative in the region.
