- Digital trailblazer secures prestigious prize
- Arvato Systems selected as winner in the ‘Create Impact’ category
- The Arvato Smart Logistics Platform supports efforts to close digitalization gaps in the supply chain
The team led by Bernd Jaschinski-Schürmann, Head of Supply Chain Management & Digitalization at Arvato Systems, qualified as a finalist in one of the seven categories (‘Create Impact’) with the Arvato Smart Logistics Platform (ASLP). The seventeen-member jury honored integrated digitalization projects that contribute to transforming organizational structures and processes of the applicant or its clients in this category. The team received the much-coveted award at a gala in Bolle-Festsäle banquet hall in Berlin on 28 June.
“We feel very honored that our platform has become singled out as one of the best digitalization projects in Germany. The digitalization of existing processes in the logistics sector presents many challenges. That’s why we’re all the more thrilled that the logistics sector, which is still rather analog-based, can be made that little bit more digital and efficient with our Arvato Smart Logistics Platform,” says Bernd Jaschinski-Schürmann.
“Supporting the digital transformation of our clients with innovative IT solutions is a key task for Arvato Systems. The Arvato Smart Logistics Platform is further proof that we’re on the right track,” beams Marcus Metzner, Chief Marketing Officer at Arvato Systems.
The Arvato Smart Logistics Platform is a digital cloud-based modular system that can be used to either carry out individual logistics processes via apps while on the go, which means you can go paperless, or even interconnect cross-company product flows such as those related to container management. This significantly improves efficiency and reduces processing times and error rates in processes. In seeking to achieve end-to-end digitalization of all business processes, the ASLP uses standard interfaces to enterprise resource planning/warehouse management systems, a control center based on real data, flexible processes and configuration options, a user interface, and administration functions to avoid stand-alone solutions. These can be used to orchestrate internal and company-wide logistics processes, as well as to execute them in a mobile fashion via smart wearables such as smartwatches.
