    Literature Review

    Gartner Announces Predictions for Global Logistics Organizations


    By Patrick Burnson, Executive Editor June 04, 2012 Gartner, Inc. has published four predictions expected to affect global logistics organizations over the next four years, covering environmental issues, risk and compliance, international flow optimization and supply chain execution convergence. These predictions will affect most logistics organizations, however the impact will depend on how prepared they are to adapt to these events, analysts said. Curiously, more than 60 percent of surveyed companies view logistics as nonstrategic. At the same time, however, expectations for near-perfect performance are placing increasing stress on global logistics organizations. While logistics operations might be out of sight, out of mind, logistics is under significant pressure to deliver near-perfect performance, while business conditions continue to become more complex, risky and difficult, said C. Dwight Klappich, research vice president at Gartner. Klappich made a similar observation at Gartners Supply Chain Executive Conference held earlier late last month in Palm Desert, California. Gartners top predictions for global logistics organizations include: 1) By 2016, more than 50 percent of Global 1000 logistics organizations will be required to systematically report verified emissions and environmental data

    The shift from aspirations and feel-good platitudes about sustainable logistics to verified requests for accurate environmental and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions information and actual performance outcomes is being catalyzed by industry groups, market expectations and regulations. Recognizing this as a significant driver of behavior change, Gartner predicts that by 2016 more than 50 percent of Global 1000 logistics companies will be required to increase focus on sustainable logistics services and report verified environmental data.

    Governments are set to continue to enact environmental legislation that has a profound impact on logistics operations, said Klappich. In Asia Pacific, Australia will soon introduce a carbon tax; China is moving to pilot an emissions trading scheme; and New Zealand and India have schemes in place. Over time, regulations will become increasingly tighter.

    REVIEW- According to Klappich and Garner In the future of Logistics is a bright and there will be more opportunity in the Logistics companies but in the other side it will be affect the Global Environment so china ,Austria, New Zealand and Also india put many schemes in the place where control the Pollution and cut down the Global warming.
