Businesses and stakeholders operating in Canada's transportation and logistics sector are facing more pressure than ever to deliver goods consistently, safely and on time – all while the industry continues to evolve. However, there is no one-size-fits-all solution, which requires contending with a wide range of external factors across multiple jurisdictions, ranging from North American weather conditions; to supply chain management; to finding the right transportation mode, carrier and route to incorporating new and innovative technologies. Urban congestion generates supply chain delays, while Canada’s sparsely populated regions pose infrastructural challenges. In addition, regulatory authorities are increasing their focus on environmental protection and stepping up enforcement efforts with respect to enhancing transportation safety, among other things.
