The National Science Foundation awarded a $806,380 Project Grant to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation to support research titled "CAREER: Marketplace Design for Freight Transportation and Logistics Platforms" from January 15, 2022 through December 31, 2026. The grant is part of NSF's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), which seeks to improve quality of life and economic strength through engineering research and education that enables innovation.
Under this award, the Georgia Tech Research Corporation will conduct research to develop marketplace designs for digital freight transportation and logistics platforms. The goal is to foster innovation that improves coordination across the complex supply chain network. The four-year project will explore algorithmic and institutional designs to facilitate transactions on these platforms in a way that balances competing objectives around efficiency, resilience, and fairness. Insights from this research have the potential to enhance supply chain performance and economic outcomes.
