Modern logistics companies today rely on advanced ICT solutions for information processing and sharing. Access to data and information about the demand for logistics services and supply opportunities are becoming a key competitive factor. Unfortunately, only the largest companies can afford advanced systems. Small and medium logistics companies have limited or no IT-competence. Tools are therefore needed to facilitate cooperation between smaller logistics companies, which in turn will reduce transaction costs. The paper proposes an idea of the SMART model, which is based on agent technology and cloud computing. It will allow easier collection and flow of information as well as better and cheaper access to logistics management systems.
