Duoinlog predicts the following trends and developments in the coming years:
- urbanisation: in 2040 approximately 70% of the world’s population will live in cities
- ageing population: changing job market, consumer requirements and demand for health care
- products will become services: for example, businesses will no longer purchase a copier, but copies
- new technologies introduced in rapid succession (e.g. 3D printing)
- globalisation and regionalisation: time to market, consumer behaviour and high fuel prices will trigger hybrid models
- global economic shift of power: emerging markets and manufacturing regions; further pressure on demand for raw materials, space, energy, drinking water and food
- socially and ethically responsible business: quality of the environment, sustainability, noise pollution, food safety, and raw materials shortages will gain importance
- open data sources: security of large quantities of data exchanged within supply chains
- new settlement systems adapted to network organisations: payment for usage and public-private partnerships
- sustainable transport technology and smart infrastructure
These trends and developments will influence the design and fulfilment of logistics processes.
