Innovation in Supply Chain Compliance and Border Management (ISCOM) 2014-2019

The interdisciplinary research programme ISCOM is aimed at the renewal and

improved efficiency of the collaboration between companies and the Customs

and Administration Service of the Netherlands within the Top Sector Logistics.

This renewal should arise through new scientific insights. The results from this

research will be applied and further developed.

ISCOM is aimed at better harmonising the government obligations and

the commercial interests of industry in the logistics chain. The projects will

contribute to three research areas:

• Compliance management

• ICT infrastructure

• Legislation

The research is being realised by consortia in which researchers collaborate

with companies that contribute to the realisation and financing of the

research.

The research programme is a collaboration between NWO and the Customs

Administration of the Netherlands and contributes to the roadmap ‘Trade

Compliance and Border Management’ of the Topsector Logistics.

Research programme

Vitale Logistiek 2015-2020

Vitale Logistiek encourages research in which science, industry and

government bodies work together to make a contribution to a strong

competitive position for Dutch logistics. By realising economic growth in

a sustainable manner, the competitive position of existing companies and

new commercial activities at large companies as well as at SMEs can be

strengthened. The programme contributes to this by means of fundamental

and industrial (R&D) research.

The programme has three themes:

• Innovation & Adoption: contributes to the knowledge about the realisation

of the improvement potential that is identified in fundamental and applied

research into logistics problems.

• Governance & Stakeholders: contributes to the knowledge and insights

about parties that must be involved in innovation in the logistics sector, and

successful models of public-private partnership.

• Network issues: deepens knowledge about complex issues in logistics

networks.

Vitale Logistiek is a programme of NWO (Social Sciences and Humanities)

and the Top Consortium Knowledge and Innovation (TKI) Logistics.

The programme ties in with the Top Sector Logistics.

Research programme

Accelerator2015-2019

Researchers and partners from industry, government bodies and civil society

organisations work together in consortia, investigating possibilities that could

contribute in the short term to an improved competitive position for the

existing industry and provide new business activities in the logistics sector.

Both large companies and SMEs can benefit from the research results, which

contribute to a sustainable form of economic growth.

The research covers all transport modalities (marine shipping, coastal shipping,

air transport, inland shipping, rail, road, pipelines), and besides the transport

of goods, it also includes other logistics activities, such as the transloading of

goods.

The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management has made funds

available for the Accelerator research programme. Thanks to the matching of

partners in the consortia, this amount has been more than doubled. Accelerator

is part of the multi-year research programme of the Top Sector Logistics.

Research programme

TKI Toeslag since 2013

TKI Dinalog issues open Calls for Proposals for ‘TKI Toeslag’ projects,

once or twice a year. The objective is to develop innovative industrial

research projects and experimental development projects in public-private

partnerships contributing to future innovation in the logistics sector.

TKI Dinalog distributes funding derived from the private investment in

the knowledge sector for which the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate

Policy grants a percentage of allowance to invest in new innovation projects.

Industrial research is research in which new knowledge and knowledge

that builds upon existing research is developed that is not yet available

(as deduced from the international literature) and therefore entails a

significant research component, as well as clearly contributes to innovation

and lends itself to practical application and use.

Experimental development projects are projects to demonstrate, pilot and

experiment with proof of concepts and prototypes of innovative concepts

and tools and for the valorization of R&D results in order to strengthen and

intensify the interaction with the logistics sector.

Supply chain actors are rethinking their logistics structures and management

practices to arrive at concepts able to deliver perishable products to retail

outlets more responsive, at lower cost, with less food waste and environmental

impact. Previous projects have shown the advantages of horizontal and vertical

collaboration, but still many questions are left to be answered. CAPSLOG aims

to build a toolbox and determine and quantify the added value of (cross)chain

collaboration. The most promising collaboration scenario will be implemented

in a real life pilot study. The project will deliver success factors of effective

horizontal, vertical and diagonal (cross chain) collaborative logistics concepts for

distributing conditioned fresh products, such that the right product quality can

be provided to consumers in a cost effective, responsive and sustainable way.

Prof. dr. ir. J.C. Wortmann 01/02/2015 - 31/01/2019

University of Groningen

University of Groningen, Erasmus University Rotterdam, Albert Heijn

The central objective of SLIFF is to enhance the sustainability of fresh food

logistics by improving logistics resource utilization while distribution lead times

are reduced. The project addresses two prevalent challenges in this context:

1 Optimisation of network logistics versus optimisation at distribution centre (DC);

2 Inventory optimisation versus transport optimisation.

SLIFF aims to propose (distributed) decision-structures and develop optimisation

models to facilitate synchronization of network level and local DC logistics

planning.

Another novelty of SLIFF resides in acknowledging that vendors may share both

transportation resources and storage space at the DC in the replenishment

of the DC. Accordingly, SLIFF aims for joint optimisation of transportation,

inventory, and material handling resources owned by many independent

parties. Therefore, this requires research in the domain of Organisation design,

Optimisation models, and ICT interoperability.

To be able to manage the unforeseen, supply chains need to develop resilience,

especially in today’s interconnected world. This project explores the antecedents

of resilience aiming to make the concept more tangible and implementable for

organisations.

The proposed research intends to identify and test what critical elements in

relation to vertical, horizontal and diagonal coordination mechanisms should be

included into the design of highly optimised supply chains to make them more

resilient based on the 4C approach. The project will also conduct a number of

exploratory case studies for further experiments with decision-makers in both

the laboratory and in the field. The project will deliver a management training

tool to help managers to better deal with uncertainty.

The introduction of 2-truck platooning - two trucks virtually coupled driving at

less than 1 second headway - will introduce new logistics concepts in the Supply

Chain. Carriers obtain fuel consumption reductions through platooning and

even higher benefits if they form 2-truck platoons with other carriers.

This project will realise a collaborative matching and planning competency,

building on Vehicle Routing Problem solutions adding 2-truck platoon planning

characteristics and parameters.

Real world data from port-related container transportation and supply chain

operations will be used to provide a proof of concept and develop a generic

platooning business case built on two scenarios for platooning formation:

centralised scheduled and on-the-fly ad-hoc matching.

Within a circular economy, three interdependent cyclic systems emerge around

biological nutrients, technical nutrients, and energy capture. Biomass plays a

pivotal role as biological nutrient and as nutrient for biogas. Biogas is currently

not economically viable in the Netherlands because of logistics costs. Transport

of biomass, of biogas and of digestate is too expensive to warrant a viable

circular economy around biogas. An important factor leading to high (logistics)

costs is economy-of-scope: many processes related to biogas require a certain

scale for economic viability. The project will focus on achieving economic

viability by new technologies and by new organisational forms. This project will

select viable configurations of value-adding activities related to biomass and

biogas in a circular economy with technical and organisational adaptability to

ensure organic growth from current to future configurations.

A logistics service provider is aware of the waste of companies. Logistics

Netherlands can play a large role in achieving a circular economy in which

waste is reused as a resource, with less environmental impact. To fulfill this

role, logistic providers must have the knowledge on and practical experience in

the circular economy via a joint community: LogiCE. LogiCE will bridge the gap

between knowledge and practical experience from on the one hand logistics

and on the other hand circular economy knowledge domain. LogiCE facilitates

the active interaction between companies, local authorities and scientists,

continuing the communities of Het Groene Brein and the networks related to

EVO (Dutch shipper’s organisation) and Tilburg University take the initiative

to develop a neutral Internet Platform to support horizontal co-operation

between shippers. On this platform, shippers can get in touch with each other

to understand each other’s supply chain needs, and they are supported in

finding and executing logistic synergies. The project develops three tools:

a matchmaking tool, a network matching tool, and an order matching tool.

With this platform, the project aims to realise horizontal collaboration, by

introducing different shippers and to facilitate the process to identify synergies

Increasingly, cargo is transported in the belly of passenger planes. Cargo flows

have to be integrated in the highly complex passenger environment, taking

into account ever tighter security requirements, operability within current

organisations and cost restrictions. The combination of these factors has an

exponential effect on the operation’s complexity. Meanwhile ‘Schiphol’ has to

be a ‘trusted party’ within the network of worldwide economies. The reliability

and predictability require a physical operation with high quality ‘predictive

analysis’ based on available data.

Smartest Connected Cargo Airport is an innovation programme to strengthen

the competitiveness of the cargo airport Schiphol. This is done by optimising

processes and information, better use of time and space, further integration of

goods and information flows, and building an innovation-oriented community.

The construction industry needs to catch up with supply chain coordination and

cross chain control centers. In this project, an innovation cluster was established

to fulfil this ambition. In different projects, new concepts for supply chain

coordination and distribution are developed and tested in construction projects

of participating companies. The obtained knowledge and experiences are

shared with the construction sector. The concepts focus on the challenges in the

wide domain of construction logistics; for house building, utility construction

and construction of infrastructure. This project also covers the challenges in city

distribution related to construction logistics.

The continuous growth of online sales together with the inefficiency of the

last-mile of the e-commerce supply chain puts a lot of pressure on urban areas

in terms of congestion, emissions and pollution. Increasing the efficiency of

the last-mile deliveries is critical to enhance the financial and environmental

performance of internet retailers. This project aims to develop and evaluate

decision support models and tools to facilitate the optimal design of different

delivery service models in online retailing and to identify service models and

corresponding operating strategies that provide most benefits in terms of

various sustainability criteria. To create more sustainable last-mile operations,

the proposed research is organised around two PhD projects, one focusing on

optimising the delivery operations and the other on the optimal design of the

distribution network.

Currently more e-commerce shipments are imported than exported in the

Netherlands. This fact is at odds with the image of the Netherlands as a strong

international player in logistics. This project presents and executes the research

programme of the innovation community for e-commerce logistics. More than

20 private companies and knowledge institutes conduct research to strengthen

the competitive position of the Netherlands in e-commerce. To improve national

as well as international logistics operation the community will also work on new

more efficient and effective concept for omni-channel storage management,

warehouse design and distribution, including more sustainable city distribution

concepts and packaging.

Efficiency and reliability in (city) logistics and supply chain planning is key to

remain competitive and improve sustainability. The objective of this project is

to research, build and test (in practice) advanced decision support systems for

both multi-channel (retail, detail and e-tail) and multi-company collaboration.

The starting point of our multi-channel and multi-company decision

support systems involves connectivity, allowing data to be exchanged, shared

and connected. Once connectivity is in place, intelligence needs to be built

in order to make use of these comprehensive data sources. An information

sharing platform will be developed which encapsulates information about

the different processes, external factors (e.g. weather, vacation, etc.) and uses

that information to provide effective decisions support services to its users

facilitating collaboration.

The growing urbanisation concentrated in large cities poses enormous

challenges to the society. The efficient use of available infrastructure and

sound mobility and logistics planning and control frameworks are among the

main challenges. This proposal focuses on logistics and mobility, and seeks to

reconcile economic, social and ecological objectives. It focuses on the use of

massively available planning and floating-car data in addition to data from

roadside equipment, to enable dynamic control of both freight and passenger

flows. In addition, existing mathematical models will be extended for road

traffic so as to jointly study interacting bottlenecks while capturing the essential

characteristics of road traffic dynamics.

The research focuses on the use of real time traffic data for freight transport

in the Amsterdam Metropolitan region. The project narrows to the application

of distribution of groceries to shops, convenience stores and consumers.

The project relates the available handling capacity to the actual position and

expected time of arrival of trucks in the delivery location. Furthermore, based

on this data combined with real time traffic data, uniform rerouting and

buffering instructions are generated which can be communicated through on

board computer systems to the truck drivers. The effectivity will be assessed for

the logistics sector in general or upscaling with other modalities.

The objective of the SAILOR project is to implement an open, service-oriented,

organisational innovation named the SAILOR (Smart lAst mILe cOmmeRce)

system. This system enhances the dynamic multiparty interaction between

parcel delivery companies and the sending and receiving customers, thereby

enabling a more informed and coordinated decision-making in urban last mile

logistics. The objectives of SAILOR are:

1 increased cost efficiency of the parcel delivery companies via a higher

proportion of first-time delivery success, faster access to (un)loading zones

and better management of reverse logistics;

2 greater adoption of flexible time and place handovers of parcels leading to

customer satisfaction;

3 societal benefits as reductions in emissions in urban areas, less congestion and

less stressful working conditions for employees of parcel delivery companies

A prototype and business model of SAILOR will be implemented in four

heterogeneous demonstration cities in the EU.

To be able to implement innovations in transport modalities and synchromodal

transport, it is necessary to create awareness, show the impact of the

innovation and create support for collaboration. The SYNCHRO-GAMING project

aims to identify effective measures to improve efficiency, reliability, flexibility

and sustainability in supply chains and create widespread support with the

parties involved. The research encompasses (real-time) synchromodal planning

algorithms, data-driven simulations and serious games for collaboration and

situational awareness. Supply chain partners will decide on better unimodal,

multimodal and synchromodal solutions as they already discussed, optimised

and experienced the decision-making in the theoretical environment of synchro-

In maritime and continental supply chains, customers are accustomed to pay

for the mode of transport that is used. Hence, an upfront choice for a transport

modality avoids price uncertainty or additional fees apply when a more

expensive transport modality is needed to fulfil the transit time requirements.

In synchromodal services, it is not clear upfront what the price will be as the

transport modality is not fixed. The challenge for synchromodal operators is

having the shippers who book transport a-modally also pay an a-modal price for

the service. This project investigates pricing schemes in which price and mode

are uncoupled. The objective is to develop pricing schemes stimulating shippers

to provide logistics operators more planning flexibility and offer synchromodal

services.

In a truly synchromodal transport system infrastructure use, transport services

and operations are perfectly aligned with market demand. This requires

the integration of data on infrastructure, services and transportation, the

development of new synchromodal control mechanisms, and the further

analysis of demand characteristics of shippers. The project focuses on the

vertical alignment, i.e. the shipper/client orientation and the relations with

the underlying network management. Academic contributions include

(1) improved freight modelling by improving the representation of shippers’

supply chain considerations; (2) quantification of the impact of the level of

information exchange and collaboration / competition among organisations

on synchromodal planning and execution; (3) new real-time decision making

approaches and pricing mechanisms for synchromodal solutions; and (4) the

development of information concepts that enable ‘data synchromodality’.

port logistics and hinterland operations that can already be used in the

short to medium term. The research covers the transition to self-regulating

logistics systems by identifying future development paths for PI networks and

mathematical models to calculate expected freight volumes in port networks.

The project also develops approaches for designing early-stage PI core network

structures within existing networks and algorithms for real-time decision-

making for transport planning, modal shifts, and transshipment decisions

of (sea) containers. Finally, the project studies the impact of a world-wide

PI rollout for ports and their regional partners by performing a stakeholder

analysis and presenting a blueprint definition.

Due to the absence of an internal container exchange route (CER), all

transshipment containers that need to be shunted between terminals have to

be moved by trucks on public roads or by train. Moreover the current booking

process is not transparent nor efficient and is time consuming. TUEBooker

creates a cost efficient, easy to use, high volume and structural solution for the

exchange of transshipment containers between MV II terminals internally and

between MV II terminals and the short-sea terminals in the WEH area in the

Port of Rotterdam.

The main issues to solve are non-optimal planning with smart planning

algorithms and the employ of unused capacity / slots. The research includes

models for dynamic pricing, paperless transport and transport payment control.

Phase I will focus on barge, phase II will also take other modalities into account.

The transport and transshipment of goods contributes to roughly 10% of the

Dutch economy with an annual turnover of 50 billion euros. Water transport

accounts for 35% of the total transport. To maintain and strengthen the

competitive position of water transport, there is the need for more efficient

and sustainable water transport. CoVadem+ develops two information services,

using CoVadem sensor data; forecasting of water depth and monitoring

of fuel consumption. These applications will be implemented as additional

support for determining optimal sailing time schedules and offloading depths,

resulting in more goods transported per sailing trip with less fuel consumption.

Furthermore, it enables more specific and proactive dredging and an increased

use rate of the water network.

systems (manufacturers of integrated circuits, railways, airports) are highly

dependent on these systems and thus require high system availabilities: high

percentages of time that the systems are up and running. Simultaneously, they

want low total costs for the initial buy of a system, the maintenance and service

logistics during the long usage period and the disposal costs at the end of the

life cycle. These costs are denoted as the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). The

research is aimed at logistics control innovations, supported by quantitative

models, that simultaneously increase system availability and decrease TCO.

Increasingly carriers actively generate relevant information about nature

risk assessment and management. Information gained from these controls

may allow customs to enhance their risk assessment and alternate between

monitoring instruments (e.g. less physical inspections). However, the juridical

status of information gathered and the legality of (modes of) information-

sharing are unclear, which is a major barrier for companies to share extra

information with customs derived from their internal controls. This research

is aimed at gaining insight in the control measures used by carriers, the kinds

of information stored, the legal status of the information, and the possibilities

to share information based on the context from a juridical and information-

federation of community platforms such that the prospective user views it as a

single logistics services platform even though it emerges through collaboration

between individual initiatives – each of them with their own focus. These

community platforms are: Central Booking Platform (CBP), Mix Move Match

(M3) and T-Traco transport management system.

Coordinating wood supply with industrial processing is a challenge. Given the

variety of climatic conditions, infrastructure and markets within Europe, a

common framework is a necessary foundation for comparing supply chain risks

and developing supply system resilience. In this context multimodal systems

(truck-rail-vessel) offer the potential to further increase buffer capacity, improve

cost efficiency and reduce emissions. The objective of MultiStrat is to establish

a common framework for testing multimodal innovations in wood supply,

delivered as an interactive supply chain simulation model. The participating

institutes are BOKU (Austria), Skogforsk (Sweden) and NIBIO (Norway).

MultiStrat starts with establishing common frameworks for comparison

between regions (WP1). These frameworks provide the empirical basis for the

supply operations (WP2) being simulated in the supply chain model (WP3).

The S-mile project will develop a set of tools for supporting first/last mile

logistic multi-modal transport, fostering green transport means and solutions.

This includes a novel routing algorithm, vehicle assignment optimisation

algorithm and freight transport cost calculating module and a decision support

tool to allow freighters to choose the optimal route of the freight. This includes

the first / last mile transport by comparing the results generated taking into

account several parameters such as time, distance, environmental and social

impact, cost, etc. in order to identify the best solutions. The products developed

will be tested in two case studies including real data about the road conditions

and hubs location.

Accelerating innovations in logistics contributes to the strengthening of the

competitive position of the logistics sector and reaching the Top Sector’s

ambitions. Until now, many innovations reach pilot phase, but do not lead to

implementations with wide impact. How can the Smartport logistics community,

the Smartport ecosystem and the logistics sector implement innovations more

effectively?

The INDEEP project aims to define the conditions and mechanism to effectively

and successfully pursue innovation projects, specifically focussing on the

innovation process in the logistics sector. The project will analyze a number

of TKI projects in the Smartport roadmap Logistics Connectivity as well as

innovation knowledge in other sectors to generate a toolkit with best practices

and lessons learned.

The logistics sector develops many ideas for logistics innovation, but wide

implementation is limited. This project aims to improve the adoption of

innovation projects and focuses on the improvement of human capital within

companies and beyond. The project will develop a benchmark on the reasons

for low adoption of innovations relating to people, organisation and projects.

The project will also deliver a game workshop for companies to assess their

innovation adoption as well as new media channels including a massive online

open course for both new and existing employees. During the project, all target

groups are involved; companies with the benchmark, employees with an online

survey and key stakeholders in a final conference.

Effective Use of Reefer Containers for conditioned

products through the Port of Rotterdam;

a transition oriented approach (EURECA)

Delft University of Technology, Seamark Reefer Service, ECT Container Terminal,

Smartport Rotterdam, Erasmus University Rotterdam DRIFT, Stichting KSI

One of the key business opportunities for the Port of Rotterdam (PoR) is the

growth of conditioned containers. Sustainable port development requires

a process that is based on insights in the supply chain of conditions goods

including energy consumption (hardware and techware), but also a process

oriented approach (orgware) dealing with governance and transitions.

The EURECA project will develop new reefer logistics concepts with a central

role for the Port of Rotterdam and focus foremost on the suitability and

acceptability of these concepts by all stakeholders, using a socio-technical

analysis and transition management approach.

Efficiency in warehouse operations contributions to the competitiveness of the

logistics company. This project uses serious games embedded in the execution of

the work processes to change behaviour of employees leading to improvement

of warehouse operations. The project will deliver a series of serious games that

can be implemented in warehouse operations throughout the Dutch logistics

sector. To reach this objective, the project will develop:

• an approach to accelerate implementation of serious gaming;

• studies on the results of the approach and its methodologies;

• an overview of process steps in the warehouse environment in which serious

gaming positively contributes.

Knowledge co-creation on the agenda – a follow up study and conference

During this conference three researchers from Kenniscocreatie, onderzoek &

advies will conduct short interviews with researchers and other experts from

government, industry and NGO’s currently involved in NWO and TKI Dinalog

research consortia on logistics. The interviews are part of the explorative phase

of a study to examine the nature of collaborative knowledge development

between the various consortium partners (knowledge co-creation), to identify

best practices and to explore the need and possible measures for improvement.

In the main phase of this research, starting in January 2018, more extensive

in-depth interviews and an online survey will be conducted. In spring 2018, a

working conference will be organised to discuss and enrich the research results

and to identify and prioritise potential measures for improving knowledge

co-creation.
