This paper studies the possibility of CMR enhancement in a logistics company. For this purpose, lean logistics and one of the methods to achieve lean logistics are first presented.
This paper focuses on data transfer from one business information system to another. The third chapter thus presents different information technologies, such as e-mail, Optical Character Recognition technology (OCR), Application Programming Interface (API), website as an interface, and Blockchain technology. An emphasis is put on the latest technology—the Blockchain technology, which enables data tracking and prevents data misuse.
The paper goes to present how this process takes place in a company. Four suggestions on how to make this process leaner are described. For each suggestion, an analysis of its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) was conducted, and a calculation of savings was made.
The last, sixth chapter presents my personal opinion on the Blockchain technology—this is a technology of the future, as it evolves rapidly and expands to different fields of use, including logistics companies.
