Economic Evaluation ofIntelligent MegaSwapBoxesfor Advanced Intermodal Freight Transport hrough Value Orientated Cost-effectiveness Estimation
The success of intermodal transport solutions compared to exclusive road transport significantly depends on the cost efficiency,the improvement of interoperability and the exploitation of a maximized cargo area.Intermodal transport provides the opportunity to benefit from the advantages of each of the individual transport modes integrated in a system that is both cost effective and sustainable.The development of intelligent MegaSwapBoxes,a seamless and customer-oriented transport concept,marks an important step towards enhancing competitiveness.The paper focuses on the method of the Value Oriented Cost-Effectiveness Estimation.This method had been developed by the Institute for Management Cybernetics at RWTH Aachen University and combines the classical analysis of investment in monetary terms with relevant non-monetary variables or the so-called soft factors in the profitability analysis,in this paper,a new approach of the Value Oriented Cost-Effectiveness Estimation is presented and applied in excerpts within the TelliBox project Intelligent MegaSwapBoxes for Advanced Intermodal Freight Transport.
