Maersk expands relationship with Microsoft to further digitise and decarbonise logistics.
A transformative partnership for an ever-changing world
The evolution of technology has pushed the boundaries of logistics. While the business world has changed and grown, it has also resulted in more supply chain complexities and lead to a larger impact on the global climate. That’s why Maersk and Microsoft are expanding their existing relationship to accelerate Maersk’s digital transformation and to further digitise logistics.
The main objectives are to identify and explore collaborative opportunities to drive digital innovation and decarbonization in logistics.
A partnership to elevate technology in logistics
Maersk is looking to develop state-of-the-art solutions to accelerate and modernise collaboration and processes, and to create value for its customers and employees. The companies intend to work together to strengthen their global strategic relationship across 3 core pillars:
Maersk will boost its cloud-first technology approach by expanding the company’s use of Microsoft Azure as its main strategic cloud platform. The cloud backbone enables Maersk to build scalable platforms to cater for organic and inorganic growth, supporting the Maersk transformation strategy. Further, the use of machine learning and data analytics will enable Maersk to gain greater insights and support new ways of working.
