Abstract
This paper aims to recognise new ITS/ICT based
innovations in multimodal freight transport operations.
The focus is to research what are the prerequisites for
collaboration, what benefits are achieved and how
transferable the solutions are. Case study methodology
and Multi-Criteria-Analysis were used. In all 12 cases
were selected, of which three for in-depth analysis. The
first case deals with port, the second corridor and the
third freight bundling. The benefits of ICT solutions in
pursuing sustainable, safe, smooth and efficient
logistics and transport are evident. However, the
collaboration should optimize entire supply chain's
operations and consider multiple perspectives. This
requires common ICT development regarding interfaces,
platforms and single window systems. The analyses of the
cases showed that if enough resources are devoted to
successful adoption, remarkable business and logistics
benefits are obtained.
