SSS Services provide operative advantages and business opportunities to logistics operators and enable improvements in a great many areas in which the EU wishes to progress, such as a sustainable transport, which is better from an environmental perspective, reducing fuel consumption and increasing energy efficiency, or a more balanced modal distribution in commercial exchanges.

Operative advantages and business opportunities through a new logistics approach based on cooperation among operators, and to implement this on a European scale means that everyone must be familiar with it, and this requires training. This pioneering European project, based on courses provided on board ships at sea and organised by the ports at both ends of the liner services, is a unique opportunity to get to know a long-range logistics resource first hand. The combination of teachers who work in the sector and direct participation in the operations makes for a very rich and practical approach.

The logistics business is based on relationships, and works through cooperation and coordination between operators and functions. Innovative approaches and the development of logistics require the generation of open environments involving human interaction.
