Abstract

As Uzbekistan moves forward with its economic modernization, logistics management has turned into one of the main factors determining the level of competition of the business and stability of its development. Although the government and investments have provided some sort of infrastructure in the sector, many inefficiencies still drive a wedge between what the industry offers, in terms of supply chains, integration of technology and certified specialists. This study fills these gaps by exploring the theoretical basis and practical mechanisms of logistics management for the business sector of Uzbekistan. To do this, the research methods include systematic, comparative, and mathematical analysis methods for comparing international and national practices, paying particular attention to changing from a traditional to an intelligent logistics system. The empirical evidence shows that improvements in supply chain coordination stems from the introduction of ERP and e-logistics platforms, which, took place between 2020 and 2025, resulting in a 3.1 percentage point of GDP reduction in logistics costs. The comparative studies also suggest that the intelligent logistics management in turn helps in better efficiency, minimum risk and increased strategic flexibility. The research identifies three interdependent pillars of logistics modernization — namely, digital transformation, institutional reform, and human-capital building. Results demonstrate that Uzbekistan is able to decrease logistics costs up to 20 percent by 2030 which allows Uzbekistan to enter top 50 of the LPI prepared by the World Bank. The key results highlight that combining the digital, regulatory, and educational reforms will not only improve business productivity but also facilitate broader economic diversification, regional integration, and sustainability.
