Solutions

NAEST Express aims to provide several innovative and sustainable solutions to address the challenges of the express transport and logistics industry, drawing inspiration from the latest technological advancements and best practices in the sector.

Here's an overview of the potential solutions that NAEST Express plans to implement:

Combating the Labor Shortage in Road Transport

The road transport sector faces a major challenge with the growing shortage of qualified drivers, which impacts supply chain fluidity and logistics efficiency. In this context, NAEST Express positions itself as an innovative and essential solution. By leveraging advanced technologies, NAEST Express will optimize transport operations, maximizing the use of existing drivers.

Our platform already uses artificial intelligence and real-time data analysis to improve routes, thus reducing travel time and increasing efficiency. Additionally, it simplifies administrative processes, allowing drivers to focus on driving. By facilitating the connection between carriers and available drivers, NAEST Express also maximizes the use of existing human resources.

By integrating virtual reality-based training tools, NAEST Express will accelerate the training of new drivers while improving their working conditions through better visibility on schedules and routes. This approach makes the profession more attractive and helps retain drivers.

NAEST Express plans to implement a comprehensive training and awareness program for its employees via NAEST Academy: eco-driving techniques for drivers, training in the optimal use of new technologies, awareness of environmental issues and sustainable best practices. This program involves all staff in the company's sustainability approach.

NAEST Express doesn't just solve the labor shortage; it also offers predictive vehicle maintenance management, ensuring optimal fleet utilization. By adopting this solution, transport companies can not only mitigate the effects of the shortage but also improve their operational efficiency.

In sum, NAEST Express embodies a concrete response to the challenges of the road transport sector, demonstrating how technology can transform complex issues into opportunities for innovation and continuous improvement.

Network of Electrified Urban Micro-hubs

NAEST Express will develop a dense network of urban micro-hubs powered by renewable energy. These small logistics centers are strategically placed in urban areas to serve as consolidation and distribution points for parcels. Equipped with automated sorting systems and chargers for electric vehicles, these micro-hubs optimize last-mile deliveries while reducing the carbon footprint.

Diverse Fleet of Eco-friendly Vehicles

NAEST will invest in a diverse fleet of eco-friendly vehicles adapted to different urban contexts:

• Electric cargo bikes for city center deliveries

• Electric vans for suburban areas

• Hybrid or hydrogen trucks for connections between hubs

• Autonomous delivery robots for certain urban areas (city center)

This multimodal approach significantly reduces emissions while adapting to the specific constraints of each delivery zone.

AI-based Route Optimization System

NAEST Express is developing an advanced route optimization system using artificial intelligence. This system takes into account in real-time:

• Traffic conditions

• Customer delivery windows

• Vehicle capacity

• Regulatory constraints (low emission zones, etc.)

• Weather forecasts

AI allows for dynamic adjustment of routes to maximize efficiency and reduce energy consumption.

Smart and Reusable Packaging

NAEST Express introduces a system of smart and reusable packaging:

• Modular containers equipped with IoT sensors for real-time tracking

• Innovative biodegradable materials for single-use packaging

• A deposit system to encourage the return and reuse of packaging

This approach significantly reduces packaging-related waste while improving parcel traceability.

Collaborative Logistics Management Platform

NAEST Express is developing a digital platform allowing transparent collaboration between all actors in the logistics chain:

• Real-time information sharing

• Resource pooling (warehouses, vehicles)

• Load optimization to reduce empty trips

• Integration with customer systems for better flow anticipation

Thus, our platform promotes more efficient logistics and reduces inefficiencies related to lack of coordination.

Use of Drones for Deliveries in Rural Areas

For hard-to-reach or low-density areas, NAEST Express deploys a fleet of delivery drones:

• Powered by rechargeable batteries via renewable energy

• Equipped with advanced navigation systems to ensure safety

• Integrated into a network of automated recharging and maintenance stations

This solution reduces costs and environmental impact of deliveries in rural areas.

Predictive Maintenance Management System

NAEST Express implements a predictive maintenance system based on data analysis:

• IoT sensors on vehicles and logistics equipment

• Real-time performance analysis and early anomaly detection

• Optimized planning of maintenance interventions

This system reduces breakdowns, optimizes equipment lifespan, and reduces energy consumption.

Integration of Intermodal Transport Solutions

NAEST Express will develop partnerships to integrate intermodal transport solutions:

• Use of rail for long distances

• Collaboration with river transport operators in appropriate areas

• Creation of intermodal hubs to facilitate transfers between transport modes

This approach reduces the environmental impact of long-distance transport while optimizing costs.

Use of New Technologies

NAEST Express will use its NST token to encourage efficient and sustainable behaviors, blockchain to improve parcel traceability and security, and AI to optimize routes and predict demand.

• Blockchain technology for improved traceability and security

• AI technology for route optimization and prediction

• Intelligent reward and loyalty architecture benefiting customers and partners

• Decentralized infrastructure for processes and data to improve cybersecurity

• Decentralized governance (NST token) through a large community of subscribers and partners

These technologies allow for better fleet management, increased transparency, instant payments, reduced operational costs, and improved customer experience.

By implementing all these innovative and sustainable solutions, NAEST Express can position itself as a leader in green logistics, addressing environmental challenges while improving operational efficiency and customer satisfaction. The company thus contributes to shaping the future of a more sustainable and responsible participatory express transport industry.
