Enhancing Warehouse Efficiency and Competitiveness in Logistic through Digital Twin and Simulation Integration

This paper examines the integration of digital twin (DT) and simulation technologies in warehouse management to enhance efficiency and competitiveness in the logistics industry, specifically for third-party logistics (3PL) providers. It uses a case study to benchmark current practices and identify areas for improvement. The research also analyses industry trends and competitor strategies, revealing a growing adoption of DT and simulation for warehouse optimization. The findings highlight significant benefits of DT and simulation integration, including improved operational efficiency, enhanced decision-making, optimized inventory management, and increased supply chain visibility. The paper proposes a practical framework for implementing these technologies, emphasizing a phased approach to ensure smooth integration and maximize impact for 3PL providers.
