Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of carrier evaluation, and in particular to a carrier portrait evaluation system and method based on multi-dimensional data fusion. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the logistics industry, enterprises are facing increasingly complex challenges when choosing carriers. In order to maintain their advantages in the fierce market competition, enterprises must choose carriers that can operate stably and efficiently in various business scenarios. However, traditional carrier evaluation methods usually rely on single-dimensional data (such as historical performance or qualifications) for analysis, lacking in-depth integration and analysis of multi-dimensional data, and it is difficult to fully reflect the actual performance of carriers in different scenarios. In addition, with the expansion of the scale of carriers and the expansion of their business scope, the relationships between carriers (such as cross-shareholders, overlapping management, historical cooperative relationships, etc.) have become increasingly complex, and the risk of potential conflicts of interest has also increased accordingly.

[0003] The existing carrier evaluation system usually adopts a simple weighted scoring or data analysis based on a single dimension, which cannot fully consider the multi-dimensional characteristics of the carrier (such as qualifications, transportation capacity, historical cooperation records, etc.) and the comprehensive impact of these characteristics in different business scenarios. This leads to the evaluation results often deviating from reality, making enterprises face greater uncertainty in the process of carrier selection.

[0004] Most current evaluation methods cannot simulate the actual performance of carriers in complex business scenarios, and it is difficult to predict the performance of carriers in scenarios such as multimodal transport, temporary route planning, and special cargo transportation. This lack of scenario-based evaluation makes it difficult for companies to fully understand the potential problems and risks of carriers in actual operations, which may lead to failed cooperation or increased operating costs.

[0005] In large-scale, multi-level supply chain networks, the complex relationships between carriers have become an important source of potential risks. However, traditional methods usually only rely on manual or simple database queries, and are unable to comprehensively and automatically identify potential relationships and conflicts of interest between carriers. This not only increases the management difficulty of enterprises, but also reduces the transparency and security of the supply chain to a certain extent. Summary of the invention
