Since last year, China Railway Corporation has officially implemented freight reforms to promote the comprehensive transformation of railway freight transportation into a market. Nowadays, both bulk cargo and small parcels have entered the category of rail transport, breaking the limitations of the previous bulk cargo transport. This move also indicates that railway freight has been fully integrated into the competition of the modern logistics industry.
In the face of competition after the railway restructuring, most logistics companies have been sitting on the needles, demand cooperation and the search for new market segments are the things that logistics companies need to do now.
The advantages of railway transportation after the transition are obvious. Compared with other forms of logistics, railway transportation has certain advantages in terms of speed and safety. At the same time, from the perspective of sustainability of the entire supply chain, railway transportation also has low carbon and environmental protection. In addition, since the railway freight reform, its service and transportation methods have also undergone considerable improvement. Therefore, at present, the advantages of railway transportation have become more and more obvious, and it will certainly be able to seize more market share in the future." Wang Lai, senior manager of China Railway Express Co., Ltd. said.
“With the rapid development of e-commerce, the market for bulk cargo transportation has also expanded. The reformed railway freight transport adopts a new mode of transportation and is actively influenced by geographical, environmental, transportation, climate and other aspects. Seize the market. It can be said that its advantages in this field are very large." Dai Dingyi, executive vice president of the China Logistics Association, said that the reformed new railway freight model also makes up for the road, air transport and logistics, express delivery companies. Many shortcomings have injected new vitality into China's logistics industry.
In addition, Kong Zhen, senior manager of the logistics department of Daejeon, believes that the railway freight transportation model has been completely renewed, making it more competitive and its advantages become more prominent. “In the past, it was very complicated for customers to handle the railway freight transportation. Not only to find the railway freight department, but also to contact the dispatching and transportation department. After the reform, as long as a phone call or click on the network page, you can contact the railway for delivery. In addition, today's railway Freight also increases the property of the express delivery company, and can directly pick up the goods at home. This enables the customers to handle the goods in the most direct, convenient and fastest way." Kong Zhen said.
In fact, under the conditions of a market economy, if any kind of transportation situation wants to be competitive, in addition to relying on quality services, price advantage is also an important part. “Objectively speaking, railway transportation is a relatively economical mode of transportation. Although the railways have experienced problems of unregulated and inconvenient charges in the past, after the reform, such problems have been effectively solved, and the freight rate advantage of the railway is also sufficient. It is reflected that railway freight transportation is not only more convenient and quicker in the way of acceptance, but also fully exerts its advantages in terms of price, so that customers can get more benefits from it,†said industry experts.
Road freight will be greatly affected At present, the positive transformation of railway freight has achieved initial results, and has ushered in a broader development space, and gradually reversed the decline in the railway freight market share. However, everything is a trade-off. In the situation of more goods returning to the railway, road transport will face a new round of crisis.
"As railway freight reforms gradually take shape and become more perfect, the impact of railway freight transport on road transport will become more and more important in the future." Dai Dingyi told reporters that from the main direction of the railway reform, it is to compete with road freight for trunk transportation. market. In the past, the railway infrastructure was imperfect and the services were not in place, which made the road freight occupied a large market in the trunk transportation. However, the advantages of large-scale railway transportation and low price are not negligible. In the past two years, its service, network layout and terminal distribution have been further improved, making railway transportation a backbone transportation network with Chinese characteristics. On the other hand, road transport has obvious weaknesses in energy conservation, environmental protection and safety. Nowadays, when the state advocates energy conservation and emission reduction, road transportation will face a very big impact.
"At the moment, the state has always stressed that the market should play a decisive role in resource allocation. In the market economy, competition for railway and road transportation is inevitable. In today's transportation market, customers have absolute dominance. What they value is not Capacity resources and transportation methods, but the overall service plan. That is to say, who can provide better services to customers and meet various needs, can be in an advantageous position in the market competition." Wang Lai said that the current development situation In view of this, the railway freight reform has been fully transformed and upgraded to the market, and there has been great innovation in transportation methods and services.
The drawbacks of road transport are very obvious. First, the safety factor is low. In recent years, high-speed fees have been continuously improved, and freight rates have continued to decline. As a result, overloading and over-limitation have become very serious, which has greatly affected road traffic safety operations. In addition, from the perspective of energy conservation, due to traffic force or weather force and other force majeure factors, traffic jams on the highway will cause a large amount of energy consumption and pollution will be more serious. If this situation continues, the shipowner may use the railway as the preferred means of transportation in the future.
At present, railway freight seems to have an advantage in terms of cost, speed, safety and environmental protection. This has already felt unprecedented competitive pressure for logistics companies that rely on road freight business.
During the interview, most responsible persons of logistics companies reflected that in some areas where railway lines are densely distributed, the impact of railway transportation has been clearly felt. "The advantages of them are too obvious, and the cost of goods is high and the cost is only about 1/3 of the highway. Nowadays, the high-speed rail has also joined the ranks of cargo transportation, and the timeliness will be more guaranteed. In the future, with the full expansion of the railway cargo express business. The cargo transportation pattern may also be reshuffled. Now our most important thing is to find ways to reduce costs, or change ideas and seek new models, otherwise it will be eliminated by this market." A logistics company official said .
Seeking cooperation to seize market opportunities In the face of competition after the railway restructuring, most logistics companies have been sitting on the needles, demand cooperation and the search for new market segments are what the current logistics companies need to do.
“In fact, there is not only competition and cooperation between roads and railways. Because they each have advantages that are unmatched by other modes of transportation. If resources can be integrated and cooperated together, the transportation benefits can be maximized.†Wang Lai Say.
In Dai Dingyi's view, the excess capacity of the road transport market is a fact of success. It is impossible for any method to completely retain all capacity. Therefore, in the future logistics market, the survival of the fittest will inevitably occur. For enterprises, if you want to gain a foothold in the market, you must not only practice internal strength, but also constantly seek and seize market opportunities. "From the perspective of future market trends, the competitive advantage of road transport in long-distance trunk transportation will become weaker.
And its advantage is that it can be door-to-door, so short-distance feeder transportation and regional distribution will be the main market for highway logistics companies. In addition, the future transportation mode will be developed in the direction of small batches, multiple batches, fragmentation, and non-standard. Therefore, for road transport enterprises, professional segmentation and flexibility should be achieved, and resources should be distributed more widely to complete more individuality. Regional and regional services. This is a big market, and road transport companies should pay attention to it. "Ding Dingyi said.
In addition, if the highway logistics industry wants to enhance its competitiveness, it is not feasible to lower the price. This requires logistics companies to open up new market lines, try to misplace the railway freight transportation, and seek to change the transportation mode. “For example, roads can return to short-haul transportation and the development of multimodal transport, as well as node-sharing services that rely on rail freight networks,†industry insiders said.
