Impacts of logistics processes in standardization and traceability systems

Abstract

The research focuses on the impacts of logistics processes, especially in the field of standardization, traceability and hazardous goods supply chains. This study analyzes how international standards (ISO, GS1, ADR) and modern traceability systems contribute with safer and more efficient logistics operations. One of the most key problems is adapting to international requirements, which include regulatory harmonization, digital transformation, and economic constraints in the Hungarian industry. Technological innovations are also examined as potential tools to enhance transparency, risk management, and process optimization, such as IoT, blockchain, and artificial intelligence (AI). Furthermore, this research represents a conceptual framework to introduce the standardized traceability systems into logistics supply chain strategies. The results highlight the benefits of application harmonized standards and innovative traceability solutions to outlining barriers and opportunities for future development.
