Among the project initiatives aimed at developing and improving technological tools for transport and logistics planning, Empresa de Planejamento e Logistica (EPL) has started the process of building a logistics information system which is the basis of the National Transport and Logistics Observatory - ONTL.
This initiative arose from the need to establish, according to the priorities of the transport sector, a transportation and logistics information system within the Federal Government, other spheres of government, non-governmental institutions and society.
