The EU is developing a new common data platform for logistics within the FENIX project. The project partners use Deutsche Telekom's Data Intelligence Hub for this. The new "data network" links all logistics partners within the EU and connects supply chains, flows of goods and modes of transport, minimizing bottlenecks in the logistical supply of EU Member States. The common platform simplifies the exchange of information across European borders while protecting the environment.
The European FEderated Network of Information eXchange in Logistics (FENIX) is a European funded project. It links certain pilot regions and transport corridors and, for this purpose, relies on the process know-how of T-Systems. The Telekom subsidiary was already involved in the predecessor project AOELIX, which developed the framework for a "digital ecosystem" and a Europe-wide platform for the exchange of information. An important component of FENIX is the "Telekom Data Intelligence Hub", which enables secure, encrypted and direct data exchange across national borders. As a neutral hub for data, it brings together the various logistics IT systems on a common platform. By harmonizing transport, FENIX increases freight capacities. At the same time, the position of the EU market compared to other markets is strengthened. By establishing container based carbon footprint services for logistics stakeholders, FENIX will give strategic advice to freight operators how to reduce fuel and greenhouse gas emissions in the most efficient way by using trip based data sets.
