100 percent digital is not a dream, but our common future in more and more use cases. The open-source concept guarantees an open standard for digitalising logistics processes while offering a high degree of flexibility for individual adaptations.
Dr. Stephan Peters, Rhenus SE & Co. KG, Chairman of the Open Logistics Foundation
It is advantageous for all supply chain parties, if in the future, that selected software components are available to everyone free of charge as open-source elements and continuously updated via a neutral authority.
Stefan Hohm, Chief Development Officer (CDO), Dachser SE, Member of the Board of the Open Logistics Foundation
The idea behind open source is to jointly develop software on the basis of a trustworthy collaboration of partners interacting at eye level. That mindset is what characterises the Open Logistics Foundation and its Community.
Christa Koenen, CIO/CDO, DB Schenker, Member of the Board of the Open Logistics Foundation
The digitalization of logistics can only be advanced by working together. The bundling of resources and topics offers a unique opportunity to set de facto standards instead of creating further monoliths.
Markus Bangen, Chairman of the Executive Board of Duisburger Hafen AG (duisport), Member of the Advisory Board of the Open Logistics Foundation
