 At present, logistics of EPC industry is complex and disorganized
Current Logistics Modal Mix Fragmented Supply in trucking
63% of freight transportation in EPC industry happens BROKERS
through road(trucks) Asset light intermediaries
Road transportation on average costs Rs 2.28/tonne-km who assist small
as opposed to Rs 1.41 through rail and Rs 1.06 in inland transporters/owner-
waterways operators to and loads.
Charge 10-15% of freight
as fees
LARGE TRANSPORTERS
11%
Fleets of > 2K trucks
Form < 10% of market
25% Act as carriers themselves
or as brokers for aligned
63%
trucks
National presence
Road Road/Railways Road/Water
Due to a fragmented supply chain,EPC industry suffers from opaque pricing especially in the road transportation
OWNER OPERATOR
Own 1- 6 trucks
Form 75- 90% of most
trucking markets
Find work through
intermediaries
SMALL TRANSPORTERS
Own 6-20 trucks May
work directly with
shipper/through broker
Form 10% of trucking

Have regional focus

KEC International faces numerous challenges in its logistics, with very less technological
automation along the supply chain
Information Asymmetry
Low Asset Utilization Levels
Poor Visibility and Limited Information
Sharing between different players along Low utilization of trucks as they return
supply chain back on LTL (Less than TruckLoad)
Lack of real time tracking of freight
Excessive Dependence on middlemen

Delays due to lack of technology High Inventory at sites

integration
Mitigate risk along key trade lanes due
to poor road conditions,traffic jams and
weather conditions for providing
alternative routes
Need for stocking up on inventory at
intermediate warehouses due to high
transportation costs through roads

 Our Solution : RPG Shyp- An online portal to monitor logistics
along supply chain

What it is?
An online portal based on IoT to enable a single integrated logistics platform
for Suppliers, manufacturing plant of KEC International, distributors as well as
transporters to enable better information flows for transportation.

How it would work?

 KEC International should liaise with its suppliers and distributors to build an integrated
logistics platform accessible to all along the supply chain
Portal Features:

Predictive Maintenance
Predictive maintenance of transport systems to
detect levels of physical stress by measuring
throughput or the temperature of the machine & take
appropriate action suggested

Fleet & Asset Management

Sensors can monitor how often a truck or container is
in use or idle. They then transmit this data to Shyp
Portal for analysis and optimal utilization

Supply Chain Risk Management

Any disruptions on a global scale,given KEC has clients
across 37 countries, are checked for their effects on
key trade lanes; if they pose a strong risk, appropriate
mitigation strategies are triggered automatically

3-D Printing
Based on inventory levels of spare parts at a
warehouse ,the central system of Shyp would send
digital copy to warehouse for just-in-time
manufacturing at particular warehouse;Would lead
to significant logistics cost savings

 Implementation Method

The equipment and Sensors are attached to

RFID (Radio frequency
products are made The thing should be identification) code can
each value adding
recognizable and identified for which we be labelled to products
thing such as
connected to a common want to capture the like tower members
machineries and
monitoring and control data through IoT which eases sorting and
products
device bundling

The common control This logistics part should devices like RFID
device should be be connected to readers, sensors and
Global positioning
strengthened with upstream and mobile apps should be
system (GPS) must be
software that can downstream interconnected as per
used to track & trace
automate the processes departments to provide the coded logic and
the shipment
based on the status of a channel for should be integrated
the system information flow with ERP software
