“…Among the most redundant ideas shared by more than several authors is that after the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies by the current logistics process, the new purposes of resource planning; warehouse management systems, intelligent transport systems; and security information are reduced time to market, prevention of stockouts, increased return on investment, and the sustainability of operations [29,55].…”

The term “Industry 4.0” relates broadly to intelligent digitization, products, and value chain processes automation, an integration of real and virtual manufacturing worlds where products, factories, humans, and objects merge with embedded software in intelligent, distributed systems. The fourth industrial revolution currently encompasses many examples of application in several fields ranging from health to industry. However, despite this recent interest, the emergence of digitalization in the logistics industry has received little attention, especially in light of the fact that digitization is of increasing strategic importance for companies in a changing and highly competitive environment as it impacts their established processes, business models, and sector boundaries while also having an ecological impact. The new trade strategies put forward by the United Nations in their development plan revolve around sustainability, especially in the industrial sector. Technological advances related to the fourth industrial revolution represent the best approach to ensure sustainability, especially if these technologies are applied to the Logistics 4.0 paradigm within manufacturing companies. The focus of our research method, solely based on a bibliography study over a span of the last five years, is on the digitalization of manufacturing companies, while our selection of screened paper is based on a qualitative criterion further discussed in this paper. The purpose of this paper is to first shed light on the link between the last industrial revolution and its impact on the evolution of logistics and then to present the various optimization opportunities and risks, with a focus on efficiency performance.

“…Fulfilling these fundamental principles of Industry 4.0 [7] in Smart logistics applications ensures an impact on the visibility, reliability, and agility of logistics processes, ultimately affecting the logistics objectives [8]. Numerous potential positive effects are attributed to the application of these technologies and technological concepts in logistics; for example, enhanced process stability [9], reduced production delays [10], transportation costs [11], stock levels [12], and even reduction of environmental impacts, such as Greenhouse Gas emissions [11]. In sum, the perceived potentials of digitalisation in logistics can be expected to affect financial, environmental, and social indicators, which still need to be scientifically evaluated [13].…”

The application of smart technologies and applications is becoming increasingly common in the logistics processes of companies and supply chains. However, standard logistics indicators are still used to evaluate their performance, which contradicts the sustainable development strategy of many industrial enterprises and their supply chains. Thus, the article aims to design a methodology for selecting sustainability key performance indicators (SKPIs) suitable for assessing smart logistics and its technologies and applications. The research relies on cluster analysis of the SKPIs recommended in the relevant literature, frequency analysis of indicators used in practice and their comparison. The cluster analysis showed that the primary attention in the references is given to sustainability’s economic and environmental dimensions. Most frequently, the authors highlighted the importance of the following indicators: production-related costs and investments, planning performance and quality, customer satisfaction, energy efficiency, waste intensity and treatment, emissions, and resource efficiency. On the contrary, the frequency analysis corroborated that leading industrial enterprises paid more-or-less balanced attention to all areas of sustainability, but at the company level. The article’s primary result constitutes a methodology comprising six steps, respecting the results of the analyses carried out: (1) Sustainability objectives definition; (2) Establishing SKPIs cluster pool; (3) Definition of criteria for selecting SKPIs clusters; (4) Selection of SKPIs clusters; (5) Definition of SKPIs and their parameters; and (6) Development of SKPIs hierarchical structure.

The process of business digitalization has become inevitable for most industries. The logistics sector, one of the fastest-growing in the world, is also facing this challenge. Networking of all segments of the logistics and postal system through digitalization offers a lot of potentials to reduce costs and increase efficiency. The paper analyzes the possibilities for digitalization of business. Special attention is paid to some of the technologies that can be applied in the field of postal traffic and logistics. Also, there are some difficulties in initializing the digitalization process, that have been described.
