Increasing flexibility and responsiveness are the opportunities that smart logistics offers to companies. With the development of the supply chain network (SCN) and big data processing, a simple view at above two technologies separately has become unadvisable. This work deals with the traceability and supply chain risk management of containers during shipping expeditions using real-time Data. The main objective of this article is to analyse proposed solutions to improve the efficiency of the supply chain by acting on risk management in containers transport. A future approach to improve the real-time management of shipments by taking into account random events is mentioned.
