National Logistics Policy – The Way Forward
Sarvam Logistics is looking at adopting all the best practices of the NLP to ensure the seamless movement of goods for our clients.
The Unified Logistics Interface Platform, Ease of Logistics, System Improvement Group, and Integration of Digital System are the four main components of the new logistics policy. The IDS integrates 30 different logistics systems from 7 agencies, including information from road transportation, railroads, customs, aviation, and commerce departments.
The unified Logistics Interface Platform will unite all the digital services related to the transportation sector into one interface. Additionally, a new digital platform called Ease of Logistics Services has been launched to let industry associations communicate with the government to find solutions to problems.
