Overview
Dr Yingli Wang is a Professor at Cardiff University in logistics and operations management. She obtained her first degree in Food Manufacturing from China in 1995, an MBA in IT with Distinction in 2003 from Coventry University and a PhD in logistics and operations management from Cardiff University in 2008. She received the James Cooper Memorial Cup in 2009, awarded by CILT for her invention of the concept of Electronic Logistics Marketplaces (ELMs). She then developed a best practice guide on ELMs for the Department of Transport.
Over the last decade, she has worked intensively with many organizations including shippers, logistics service providers and IT service providers, in the field of e-logistics and digital supply chain, such as Tesco, ASDA, BT, Costain, Panalpina, Tata Steel, Descartes, JDA Software Group, Infor, Road Tech Computer Systems, GT Nexus, Tandem Transport, CEVA Logistics, Panalpina, ABP Ports, Portbase, to name only a few. Her research on digitalisation in logistics and supply chain has attracted funding from various funding bodies such as Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), European Regional Development Funding (ERDF), Welsh Government, Highways England and Department for Transport (DfT). The book of “E-Logistics: managing your digital supply chains for competitive advantage” that she co-edited with Prof. Steve Pettit is the first book in the marketplace that offers a comprehensive coverage of technological developments in logistics and the 2nd edition has been released in 2021. Following the success of the E-logistics book, she has also co-edited an open access book with Prof. Steve Pettit entitled " Digital Supply Chain Transformation: Emerging Technologies for Sustainable Growth" which can be downloaded via https://cardiffuniversitypress.org/site/books/e/10.18573/book8/.
She has written widely on the subject and her recent practical publications include a research report and guide for Highways England on accelerating BIM adoption in the supply chain, a research foresight report for Government Office for Science on the impact of emerging technologies on future mobility, and a white paper on blockchain for supply chains for World Economic Forum (WEF). Her futuristic outlook of freight ecoystem in 100 years' time was featured in CILT's flagship magazine Logistics Focus (December issue 2019, pp.35).
One of her research priorities is blockchain/distributed ledger technology and its integrative use with other digital technologies such as 5G, artificial intelligence, internet of things and cloud computing. She is currently involved in a number of blockchain initiatives, for instance she sits as a blockchain supply chain expert for World Economic Forum’s Centre for the Fourth Industrial Revolution, shaping the trajectory of blockchain deployment in supply chains towards interoperability, integrity and inclusivity. She has made significant contribution to the recent launch of the world's first comprehensive toolkit on blockchain deployment in supply chain. In the UK, she’s been working with a number of organisations from the construction and fintech sectors exploring the deployment of blockchain for value creation. She is keen in raising awareness and sharing knowledge about blockchain in supply chain and has delivered in collabration with industrial partners a master class on blockchain at RICS Digital Built Environment Conference 2019 (London) and a webinar on blockchain's role in the circular economy for the World Built Environment Forum. She is also a founding member of Blockchain Connected Council in Wales.
Dr. Wang’s research started with examining technological innovation for organisations such as logistics service providers and manufacturers, and then recently extended to explore how technological innovations could benefit a wider society, in particular by addressing the ‘wicked’ problems and grand challenges such as food poverty and health inequality. She works closely with a number of food orgnisations in Wales and is a key member of the South Wales Food Poverty Alliance. One of her notable contributions include the recently launched strategic document: Food Poverty in Wales: a call to action and the sucessful roll out of Wales' first Your local Pantry at Dusty Forge (a food redistribution social enterprise that tackles food poverty and ineuquality) in Cardiff. Her work on food poverty has won the recent 2020 Innovation and Impact Awards. My further work has been focusing on scaling up such community retail provisions to generate wider social impact, and has subsequently produced a brochure, in collaboration with Food Cardiff and the Community Food Retail Network members. It serves as a guide to share knowledge and provide advice to local community organisations which wish to set up a community retail project in their local areas
Dr. Wang is a Chartered Member of the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT). Before embarking on her academic career, she worked for about 8.5 years at Nestlé China in various senior managerial roles.
