ICONET Vision Explore and create innovative PI network services that optimise cargo flows against throughput, cost and environmental performance, based on Governance policies and SLAs, constantly and fully aware of network operations and status New business and Generic PI Case Study governance models and PI Hyperconnectivity Open and Simulation models for enablers for the PI Reference Architecture PI network design, operations, addressing and Platform for enabling addressing decision support the barriers for the required connectivity with respect to the number collaboration and maturity at the digital level and placement of PI nodes issues
ICONET Objectives • A cloud-based PI framework and services • Digital and physical interconnectivity through open and public APIs
PI Living Labs e-Commerce as a Warehousing as a PI Hub PI Corridor Service Service • Hub types • Transformation • PI impact on e- • Investigates the capabilities and (modelling) of TEN- commerce role of the the possible T corridors into fulfilment models warehouse as a key topologies IoT-enabled PI • Redesigning last- PI node • PI containers travel corridors mile distribution • A dynamic buffer according to centres to fulfil PI for flow between synchromodality hub roles other PI hubs, to principles • Investigating the increase role of other forms throughput of of mobile or hubs, reduce multirole last-mile congestion, etc hubs fall within this scope.

Use Case Business Scenario SONAE MC is the leading food retailer in Portugal ParaPharmacy Food Retail Pet Goods Home appliances
Current Fulfilment models eCommerce current business Model Centralized operations • Order preparation is centralized in large stores • Small and Medium Stores can only do C&C – they cannot do home delivery nor transport the order to a 3rd party location • Food and Non-Food deliveries are made separately Note: Darkstore: For Lisbon and Porto area, the company has developed a dark-store from which fulfils the orders. The darkstore acts essentially as a supermarket (exclusive to eCommerce) dedicated to pickers. Its assortment its composed by the 80% of the items generally present at every order. On this model, the remaining 20% (“long-tail”) is fulfilled at the nearest hypermarket with the same process (support store).
Use Case Business Scenario Main challenges Through its large scale, yet centralized setup, SONAE still faces challenges with respect to: Orders’ fulfilment (stockouts) High costs of picking and delivering, Local urban transport, and their side-effects (e.g. CO2 emissions, congestion) Lead times COVID-19 (new)
Development of new fulfilment models Ability to suggest the most efficient way to fulfill an order Cost Stock-Out Lead time DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS SCENARIOS AND PI RESEARCH 1. Decentralized Order Preparation and Delivery 2. Multiple Company Scenario including other businesses (e.g. Wells, KASA, ZU) 3. Integrated and standardized store stock information (Networking) 4. Back end service for road network discovery (Networking)
Simulation Findings Practical impact of the learnings STREAM 1 STREAM 2 IN OUR CURRENT SCENARIO TODAY NEW ECOMMERCE OPERATIONS I. ORDERS ARE ASSOCIATED TO A SPECIFIC (PREPARATION STORES) PREPARATION STORE BASED ON LOCATION. ARE OPEN IN AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS II. 100% OF THE ORDER IS DONE IN THAT WITHOUT A INTEGRATED VIEW OF THE SAME STORE (HIGH STOCKOUTS) NETWORK SIMULATION OF THE IMPACT FOR PI OPTIMIZATION FOR IDENTIFICATION OF FRAMEWORK APPLICATION IN TO E- ADDITIONAL E-COMMERCE PREPARATION COMMERCE OPERATION STORES Very Otimistic preliminary findings Preliminary ranking of stores

PI Services Integrated Representation of PI Transport Process • Based on PI layers functionality • Integrated representation of PI Services communications and modules • Definition of case specific challenges • Stockouts – Store preparing each order • Consolidate orders – Efficient van delivery rounds • Expanding PI - New preparation stores Generic PI operation ICONET
PI Services PI features for eCommerce PI features for eCommerce: • Multiple vendors • Multiple stores per vendor • Unknown fulfilment origin • Multiple products per store • Varying picking capacity dark store per store in store • Multiple fulfilment locations per order • No fixed routes and PI Mover services • Vehicle capacity ICONET
PI Services Networking - Functionality • Consolidated information platform for network discovery • Integrated PI data structure • Collects and standardizes data on: • Multiple transport mode options • Multiple warehouse storage options • Real-time data/ updates: • Disruptions • Delays and queues • Uncertainty and unreliability • Considers utilization and fill rate metrics (impacting emissions and cost) • Packages information w.r.t. PI Order requests ICONET
PI Services Networking – UC1 – Fulfilment origin Stock • Products (SKU, quantity) store • Synthetic order (SKU, quantity) customer ICONET
PI Services Networking– UC1 – Fulfilment origin Maximise Profit • Considers delivery cost store customer • First goal to fulfill as much as possible (not all) • Second goal to minimize distance • Utilize optimally nearby store capacity • Linear • Always returns a solution ICONET
PI Services Networking – UC1 – Fulfilment origin baseline optimized dynamic postcode based fulfilment order fulfilment ICONET
PI Services Routing – Path finding/ Delivery round design • Optimal path identification • Shortest • Cheapest • Fastest • Least polluting • Most reliable • Shipping instructions • Considers time-windows • Fleet size • Van capacity • Solves VRP to handle capacitated van fleet routing problem • Use of efficient/ Scalable algorithms ICONET
PI Services Routing/ Encapsulation – UC1 – Consolidation • IoT - Track capacity availability of PI Movers • Encapsulation – Fit orders into e-commerce boxes • Networking – Identify fulfilment stores • Routing – Assigns cargo to PI Mover ICONET
PI Services Shipping – UC2 – Network expansion 7 stores 79 stores NOT preparing preparing orders orders ICONET
PI Services Shipping – UC2 – Network expansion baseline – dynamic fulfilment 3 new stores 5 new stores ICONET
PI Services Innovation & Impact • Introduces a highly interconnected, and standardized system that includes multiple optimization and smart DSS processes that offers: • Interoperability & communication between stakeholders • Robust functionality/ stochasticity in transport process • Trackability of processes and functionality • Adaptability to various business cases • Efficiency in decision making Service Impact Shipping Robust and standardized shipment processing Encapsulation Consolidated shipments; LL adaptability Networking Integrated and standardized network discovery Routing Efficient and flexible (goal) routing; LL adaptability ICONET

WP2 – Simulation Models Living Labs LL3 - e-Commerce centric PI Network Mixed Digital/Physical Simulation Models for PI Networks David Cipres, ITAINNOVA This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Grant Agreement No. 769119
LL3 - e-Commerce centric PI Network Simulation Scenario ● The objective of this simulation model is to measure and evaluate the impact of the PI framework in the fulfillment process and operational cost, in an urban distribution environment. ● Explore the benefits of sharing logistics assets (transport, warehouse) in the eCommerce. ● Evaluation of different operative alternatives: Preparation (Centralized/In Store) & delivery (In Store/Pick-up Point/Home Delivery) ● Integration with ICONET Services (Networking, Routing, Shipping services..) ● Evaluation of impact in transport efficiency and stock-outs. ICONET ..
LL3 - e-Commerce centric PI Network Simulation Scenario Dynamic Simulation Models ● Representation of retail supply chain with Physical Internet components. Simulation model Components: ● Customers (shown in blue) ● Stores (shown in yellow) ● Central warehouse (shown in green) Model Scope: 7 stores and 80 customers. (Porto area) ICONET ..
LL3 - e-Commerce centric PI Network Simulation Scenario Scenario definition: ● Scenario 1. Local fulfilment ○ Orders are delivered from the store to the customers depending on their postal code. ● Scenario 2. PI Network fulfilment ○ The assignment of shops is made according to criteria of proximity and stock. (PI Services) ● Although in the second scenario the routes are longer and lead time increases by 30%, the vans are 29% fuller. ● Transport costs hardly increase by 1%, it is compensated by a lower activation cost (two less vans are needed). ● Finally, since 25% more orders are completed, the total cost per order is 24% lower.
