Our culture of innovation

Identify, develop and deploy forward-thinking projects

At ID Logistics, innovation is cultivated first and foremost in situ, where agility and proactivity make the difference. To achieve this, the Group emphasizes the added value that technology can bring, without neglecting the importance of know-how and change management.

A dedicated structure

An agile organization to deploy disruptive projects

Our innovation team relies on experts from our various departments (robotics, mechanization, IT, operations) to carry out large-scale projects adapted to the needs of each of our countries and our customers.

A collaborative approach

A participatory approach to promote the ideation and implementation of innovation projects

Our innovation challenges and programs (Kings of Innovation, Innovation Games, Roboost Program) foster collective competitiveness within our global operational teams. These competitions generate new ideas based on real issues encountered on the ground, while guaranteeing pragmatic and efficient deployment of the most promising innovations.
