NexTrust is a 31 member consortium to drive collaboration in the logistics industry. Its objective is to increase efficit the entire supply chain.

digi-trust.EU was born from our NexTrust DNA and is the post NexTrust project venture. digitrust's ELG-WEB™ collaboration platform, digital tools, and neutral trustee services were utilized for the NexTrust initiative.

Research, Innovation & Validation

Proof of Concept

NexTrust was conducted from 2015 to 2018 within the European Union.

For the first time, shippers purchased and shared transport capacity together in a legally compliant way, with the neutral trustee support

29 FTL Collaboration pilot cases

Results

Researched and validated through test pilot cases.

"Collaborative network" has tremendous multiple synergies & efficiencies

Active 'horizontal' collaboration between shippers demonstrated the positive productivity effects and is accepted by the carriers

Financial returns demonstrated through reduced costs and greenhouse gas emissions

Proven and validated methodologies, e.g. vertical and horizontal transport collaboration

Sustainability

NexTrust pilot cases demonstrated positive sustainability impact with shipper collaboration*:

Total average: 27,7 % CO2e savings

Total average: 36,0 % vehicle-kilometers (VKM) savings

Modal shift: 50-80% CO2e savings

*Energy-based calculation in line with the new global standard by GLEC methodology (Global Logistics Emissions Council)
