Technological Environment
IT is the most important technology factor for logistics business because speed and reliability are equal to success. However, there is an indisputable constant threat of falling behind. Investments to the modernist technologies are evitable and in times of economic crisis are much more important then anytime before. Company has to decide if it runs internal IT organization or if it outsources most of the services and reduce cost.

obligations - directives, taxes and rules that they must be aligned with to be able to operate in the market. Liberalization - Removal of border lines enabled building and strengthening of positions in the logistics market.
