The “Training Manual on Logistics Information System” was developed as part of the activities of the UNDA project “Transport and trade connectivity in the age of pandemics: Contactless, seamless and collaborative UN solutions”.
Included in the Training Manual are definitions of logistics, logistics information and a logistics information system, a description of logistics information system, a stepwise approach on how to develop a logistics information system and a list of required standards to develop and implement such a system. The Training Manual is intended to support ESCAP member States in their efforts to develop logistics information systems using standards to improve work productivity and efficiency in a sustainable way.
The Manual can be referred to in conjunction with the "Regional Study: The use of Logistics Information Systems for increased efficiency and effectiveness".
