At Calsina Carré, we continue to move forward in our commitment to innovation, sustainability and the digital transformation of transport. In this context, we have received funding through the 2024 Call of the Support Programme for Sustainable and Digital Transport – PATSYD to develop the project “Digital ecosystem for the management and traceability of Calsina Carré’s ITUs”, known as DIGICALUTI.
This project is funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU and its main objective is to create a digital ecosystem based on the sensorisation of ITUs, enabling full traceability from origin to final destination. Through this initiative, we aim to integrate all stakeholders in the value chain and ensure comprehensive, reliable and efficient data capture.
By incorporating advanced technological solutions, DIGICALUTI will enable us to optimise the coordination, monitoring and management of ITUs throughout their entire life cycle. This digitalisation will help improve the use of logistics resources, anticipate demand, strengthen decision-making and significantly reduce the emissions associated with our operations.
One of the project’s main pillars is the promotion of intermodality. Looking ten years ahead, we expect 62% of Calsina Carré’s transport to be managed through intermodal modes, such as rail and maritime transport, in contrast to the current model, which is still predominantly based on road transport. This change represents a firm step towards a more efficient, competitive and environmentally responsible logistics model.
DIGICALUTI also foresees a substantial improvement in operational efficiency, thanks to the optimisation of route planning and ITU allocation. These improvements are expected to reduce delivery times by 20% and minimise operating costs.
In terms of sustainability, the project includes a significant reduction in CO₂ emissions through the incorporation of sensorisation systems and the strategic use of digital corridors. In this regard, a 30% reduction in the carbon footprint associated with transport is expected.
Furthermore, the comprehensive digitalisation of operational processes will allow us to centralise information through Business Intelligence platforms, generate key indicators and access high-quality data to improve decision-making. The implementation of a centralised management system will strengthen the traceability and connectivity of ITUs, reducing data management errors by up to 90%.
With DIGICALUTI, Calsina Carré is taking a further step in its digital transformation and sustainability strategy. We are committed to a more connected, efficient and responsible logistics model, capable of responding to the current challenges of the sector and actively contributing to the decarbonisation of transport.
