Enhancing Warehouse Efficiency and Competitiveness in Logistic through Digital Twin and Simulation Integration
Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This paper examines the integration of digital twin (DT) and simulation technologies in warehouse management to enhance efficiency and competitiveness in the logistics industry, specifically for third-party logistics (3PL) providers. It uses a case study to benchmark current practices and identify areas for improvement. The research also analyses industry trends and competitor strategies, revealing a growing adoption of DT and simulation for warehouse optimization. The findings highlight significant benefits of DT and simulation integration, including improved operational efficiency, enhanced decision-making, optimized inventory management, and increased supply chain visibility. The paper proposes a practical framework for implementing these technologies, emphasizing a phased approach to ensure smooth integration and maximize impact for 3PL providers.
