IT Solutions as an Important Instrument for Enhancing Competitiveness of the Logistics of Liquid Fuels in Poland

Journal Title: Logistics and Transport - Year 2015, Vol 25, Issue 1

Abstract

The aim of the article is to present an innovative IT solution for monitoring transport in the process of fuel distribution, which was implemented in Lotos Paliwa in January 2013. Hardware and software requirements of the system, as well as the functional and task-oriented structure were described in the article. In contrast to other standard applications supporting the management of liquid fuel supply chain, it is a unique solution which considerably contributes to a significant reduction of the levels of losses and extraordinarily increases the safety and quality of delivered goods. It is a tool which may become an important source of competitive edge during stagnation in the market of fuels.
