Operating Solutions For Intermodal and Transportation
Intermodal Automation – Why Automate?
The US Department of Transportation identifies the following driving forces that currently
influence and continue to change the intermodal industry landscape:
Growth » Increase in Freight Traffic
Trucking and rail industries are currently responsible
for 66.8% of the value of all US shipments, and the
number of imports and exports are projected to double
over the next 30 years.
Safety » Focus on Safe Productivity
Recent trends show improvement and focus on freight
safety and security. Despite a 27% increase in freight-
ton miles for all surface modes between 1990 and
2011, freight-related fatalities declined by 33%.

Intermodal Automation – Why Automate?
The US Department of Transportation identifies the following driving forces that currently
influence and continue to change the intermodal industry landscape:
Technology » Supply Chain Connectivity
US DOT recognizes that data collection will enable
faster and more accurate analysis of routes, travel
times, and capacity, and automation will increase
productivity and change the landscape of the workforce.
