Resumen
Through the Panama Canal, 5% of world trade is mobilized, which requires constant transformation in terms of innovation to offer growth to its different stakeholders. This research aims to demonstrate how to innovate in logistics operations that add value to the entire chain. This study collects the information in relation to the Panama Canal. In addition, innovative projects are presented in logistics operations used in the channel that allow to optimize times, generate more profits and allow an organized operation such as the Innovation Challenge DHL project that promotes innovation in the daily practices of its employees making it part of its strategic growth and which impacts on the Panama Canal because it is one of its largest operations in the world.
Finally, we explore initiatives that add value to other parts of the chain from aspects of quality of life to social and international impacts. There are therefore initiatives that can be replicated in other scenarios with positive results and this research makes an invitation to do so to impact other value chains in the world.
