The main goal of the study is to analyze and evaluate logistics platforms in terms of ensuring the continuity of supply chains during the global COVID-19 pandemic. The study was conducted based on a critical analysis of the literature on the subject, analysis of statistical data, and reports published by the CO3 platform and the DHL Resilience360 platform. The author of this study also assessed the platforms in terms of the usefulness of tools whose role is to inform platform customers about disruptions in the supply chains resulting directly from the COVID-19 pandemic. The role of logistics platforms is to monitor risks in global supply chains in real-time, which over the last two years have been mainly related to the global COVID-19 pandemic. The platforms are intuitive tools which — thanks to constant updates with the latest data and analyzes conducted by a team of analysts — allow them to provide their clients with tools related to, inter alia, risk monitoring, critical point mapping, and filtering, data collection and sharing, as well as alarm profile building. Great opportunities should be sought in such an innovative, constantly updated solution.
