Environmental regulatory compliance and sustainability requirements
Definition
Logistics companies must comply with environmental regulations (US Clean Air Act, emissions tracking) and increasingly customer-driven ESG requirements. Compliance requires emissions tracking systems, vehicle upgrades to cleaner technology, documentation, and potential penalties. Green technology investments (electric vehicles, solar warehouses, emission reduction) carry substantial capital costs with uncertain ROI. Regulatory landscape evolving with potential further restrictions. Non-compliance creates legal liability, customer de-selection, and operational disruption. SMBs lack resources of large companies to manage regulatory complexity, creating competitive disadvantage.
