In some countries, such as Poland, the growing number of digital services sometimes makes existing platforms inefficient, given the necessity of their constant management. Implementing and updating services is usually very time and money – consuming as it requires to involve IT developers. To answer those needs it was necessary to find an alternative solution with new architecture and technology.

Innovation: The Institute of Logistics and Warehousing, EARTO Member through Łukasiewicz Research Network, developed the eLF platform, a software, available in multiple languages, which enables to implement and maintain digital services in real-time without engaging extensive programming work. The eLF innovation introduced a tool called “e-service configurator”, with a graphical interface and great capabilities which meets all legal requirements.
