Digital planning awarded: Siemens Supply Chain Suite drives innovation at Volkswagen and Porsche
Global supply chains require maximum flexibility today. Complex data volumes must be understood quickly and used intelligently. The German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA) has now recognized the most innovative answers to these challenges at the VDA Logistics Award 2026. Volkswagen Group Logistics, together with Porsche, took an outstanding second place for their forward-looking planning concept. We warmly congratulate them on this great success!
The logistics of the future is data-driven, agile, and highly automated. The award-winning concept from Volkswagen and Porsche impressively proves what the seamless integration of complex logistics networks and digital planning looks like in practice. It makes us at Siemens Digital Logistics extremely proud that our technology forms the foundation for this success.
The official VDA press release clearly highlights the role of our software in this solution:
„The first element is a planning tool based on the Siemens Supply Chain Suite for inbound logistics that can be flexibly adapted to different application scenarios. It enables the simulation of logistical challenges and makes complex datasets usable for making informed decisions and continuously optimizing logistics chains.“
What does this mean in practice?
Innovative concepts for automotive logistics are not created on the drawing board. They require a powerful technological foundation. This is exactly where the Siemens Supply Chain Suite (SCS) comes in.
- Mastering complexity: Logistics networks produce massive amounts of data every day. The SCS structures this data and makes it tangible for planners.
- Simulating the future: Before physical processes are changed, our software enables the precise simulation of logistical scenarios. Risks are minimized, and potentials become immediately visible.
- Securing decisions: Gut feeling is no longer enough in modern logistics. The SCS provides fact-based foundations for strategic and operational decisions.
Transforming the everyday
The award for Volkswagen and Porsche shows that utilizing intelligent digital planning pushes the boundaries of what is possible in the supply chain. At Siemens Digital Logistics, we call this “Transforming the everyday.” We provide the technology that helps our customers revolutionize their day-to-day logistics, make complex processes more efficient, and secure decisive competitive advantages.
