Purpose and goal
The purpose of the project "Predictive Movement Transporter in Cities and Rural Areas" is to test the PM platform in Gotland and support iBoxen´s expansion in rural areas. The business models for PM have gained acceptance and are now being disseminated. We strive to create equity in package deliveries and develop policies based on practical possibilities using an index. The PM twin will be user-friendly. The goal is to make the PM platform and twin suitable for extensive use in the industry, for both businesses and government entities, with a long-term establishment in Gotland and iBoxen.
Expected effects and result
PM will drive digital transformation in the transportation sector. The development of business models and policies that promote collaboration and transportation optimization will impact how the industry operates and create new opportunities. The establishment of transparency and equity in PM usage can enhance trust and ensure a fair distribution of costs and profits. The PM nonprofit association can guarantee long-term management and development of the platform, benefiting all stakeholders and fostering ongoing innovation within the transportation sector.
Planned approach and implementation
We begin with the transportation challenges identified by the Energy Network on Gotland and iBoxen, systematically structuring the needs using a Living Labs approach. We experiment with AI solutions and employ agile project management for the efficient implementation of the PM platform and its digital twin. We conduct an LTU innovation process to develop circular business models for PM usage. The successful execution of the project involves meetings with political and business decision-makers to engage and inform them about the project´s societal benefits.
