• IBA projects
    • Transport corridor Uniting International Joint Aspirations in the Northern dimension
      • The project aims to intensify cooperation between the Northern Dimension countries, in particular, Finland and the Nordic countries, as well as the Baltic States, by creating and implementing common practices in digital logistics.
    • CaaS Green Transport Road Drive
      • The main goal of the project is to strengthen the role of the Northern Dimension in international freight transport by strengthening the logistical connections and attractiveness of the Baltic Sea and the Barents region.
        From the point of view of the Baltic Sea and the Barents region, the project will have far-reaching effects in terms of accessibility and smoothness, which will primarily support freight transport and industry and commerce, but later also the needs of passenger transport.
    • Nordic Silk Way
      • The goal of the project is to promote international collaboration between Finland and Russia in PPP collaboration, related to ITS, automated driving, and logistics. The aim is also to enforce the context of letters of intent agreed upon between national transport authorities. Project team: VTT, Vediafi, and Kinno.
  • Delivery pilot
    • The aim of the project was to intensify urban logistics and to improve the utilization of urban delivery areas in Helsinki.
      • What: Information on how such a model works to improve the logistics of organizations and how this information can be used in urban planning.
      • Why: working time becomes more efficient, fuel is saved, the air quality will improve, the downtown area will be more comfortable, traffic will be smoother, and vehicles will be off the sidewalks.

    • Digital and connected logistics projects
  • Ministry of Transport and Communications consultation: From fragmented to distributed, from documents to data, from an actor-centered approach to interoperable ecosystems
    • The progress of digitalization is fast and its importance is growing in the transport and logistics business. As a result of this development, large international online traders have grown into large logistics operators that form integrated cross-border supply chains. A key development target in logistics is accelerating distribution. Large shipping companies and ports create digital platforms for integrating maritime transport into other modes of transport and trade chains. Airlines have formed a consortium to build new types of digital media. These platforms will also be integrated into multimodal transport operations. The logistics processes and information systems of most companies and public sector organizations have been developed to process document-based information. The current process of integrating the documents into the systems is manual and takes place while data is received or sent. The logistics information systems are fragmented and operate in “silos”. There are errors in the manual integration of data, the movement of data is slow between the systems and the operation is expensive. In this report, we explain why it is necessary to move from these fragmented and poorly interoperable systems to distributed data-sharing. We also describe how the transition from documents to data models and from fragmented systems to distributed and integrated solutions can best be implemented.
