NICDC, GIDB sign MoU to digitise logistics in Gujarat

The National Industrial Corridor Development Corporation Limited (NICDC) Logistics Data Services Limited (NLDS) and Gujarat Infrastructure Development Board (GIDB) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to digitize the logistics landscape in Gujarat. The MoU was exchanged between GIDB CEO, Banchha Nidhi Pani and NLDS chairman, Rajat Kumar Saini. The collaboration proposes to leverage Unified Logistics Interface Platform (ULIP) to digitise the logistics and further make way for developing the Gujarat ULIP Dashboard.

The dashboard will help integrate various state department platforms to provide a seamless flow of information such as real-time visibility of key logistics parametres. These broadly include vehicle utilisation, shipment tracking, transit times and infrastructure availability. The tool will prove beneficial for govt and private sector players to efficiently monitor and handle logistics operations in Gujarat. “This collaboration will bring visibility to streamline logistics operations, enhance coordination among state departments, and decision-making processes through real-time data insights,” Union govt said in a statement.
