Unified Logistics Interface Platform to offer real-time logistics visibility

National Industrial Corridor Development Corporation Limited (NICDC) Logistics Data Services Limited (NLDSL) and the Government of Andhra Pradesh signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in the presence of Union Minister of Commerce and Industry, Shri Piyush Goyal, Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Shri N. Chandrababu Naidu, on the sidelines of the 30th CII Partnership Summit held in Visakhapatnam on 14 November 2025. The collaboration aims to digitize the logistics landscape in Andhra Pradesh by leveraging the Unified Logistics Interface Platform (ULIP).

As part of the initiative, a robust integrated digital platform will be developed and implemented to provide government and private stakeholders in Andhra Pradesh with real-time visibility into the state’s logistics operations and performance metrics. The platform aims to enhance coordination, improve efficiency and support informed decision-making across sectors, enabling stakeholders to access real-time information seamlessly.

The Government of Andhra Pradesh, through INCAP, will collaborate with NLDSL to build an integrated logistics dashboard for monitoring logistics-related key performance indicators (KPIs) across various state departments. The analytical insights and actionable reports generated through this dashboard will be used to strengthen and upgrade the state’s logistics ecosystem by leveraging the capabilities of ULIP.

This MoU represents a major milestone in integrating advanced technological solutions with logistics development and contributes to strengthening India’s position as a global leader in efficient, modern and resilient supply-chain infrastructure.

The MoU was signed in the presence of CEO & MD, NICDC, and Chairman, NLDSL Shri Rajat Kumar Saini. The MoU was formally executed by VC & MD, INCAP, Shri C. V. Praveen Adithya, and CEO, NLDSL, Shri Takayuki Kano. This partnership marks a significant step toward building world-class logistics infrastructure aligned with the National Logistics Policy (NLP).

ULIP is a digital gateway that enables industry stakeholders to access logistics-related datasets from various government systems through API-based integration. ULIP has integrated with 44 systems across 11 ministries through 136 APIs, covering more than 2,000 data fields. Over 210 applications have been developed by companies using ULIP, resulting in more than 200 crore API transactions. In addition to private-sector adoption, ULIP is supporting data-driven governance by delivering synthesized logistics insights to ministries and departments, including Coal, Food Corporation of India (FCI) and various state governments.

 

Andhra Pradesh logistics digitisation via ULIP offers real time visibility and KPI analytics through API based platform integration. Memorandum of Understanding commits the Government of Andhra Pradesh (through INCAP) and NLDSL/NICDC to develop and implement an integrated ULIP based digital platform and logistics dashboard delivering real time visibility, KPI monitoring, analytical insights, and API based data sharing to enhance coordination, efficiency and data driven governance aligned with the National Logistics Policy.
