Abstract

The study examines the current status of introducing technological innovation in the Uzbekistan logistics industry and proposes opportunities and challenging factors for the logistics industry following the introduction of technological innovation in the future. The analysis results revealed that the information technology used in the Uzbekistan logistics industry following technologies: RFID, barcode, Cool Guardian, tracking system, transport satellite monitoring, digital TIR, and GPS monitoring. In addition, Uzbekistan has recently been increasing investment in advanced information and communication technology not only at the corporate level but also at the governmental level in anticipation of becoming a hub for logistics. Based on these analysis results, the Uzbekistan logistics industry's proposed opportunities and challenging factors can be used as basic information for government policymakers, transportation and logistics companies, and various partners. It can also be used by logistic companies that seek to take advantage of Uzbekistan's strategic location to create a logistics hub in Central Asia.

본 연구는 우즈베키스탄 물류산업의 기술혁신 도입의 현황을 살펴보고 향후 기술혁신 도입에 따른 물류산업의 기회와 도전 요인을 제안하고자 한다. 현재 우즈베키스탄 물류산업에서 사용되고 있는 정보기술의 현황 분석결과, RFID, 바코드, 쿨 가디언, 추적 시스템, 운송 위성 모니터링, 디지털 TIR, GPS 모니터링 등이 사용되고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 최근 우즈베키스탄이 물류의 거점이 될 수 있다는 기대감으로 기업차원뿐만 아니라 국가적 차원에서 첨단정보통신 기술 투자를 늘리고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 분석결과를 기반으로 제안된 우즈베키스탄 물류산업의 기회와 도전요인은 정부정책 입안자, 운송 및 물류 분야 기업, 그리고 다양한 파트너에게 기초적인 정보로 사용될 수 있다. 또한 우즈베키스탄의 지리적 강점을 활용하여 중앙아시아에서의 물류거점을 수립하고자 하는 비즈니스에도 활용될 수 있다.
