Its mission is to increase the performance and productivity of Quebec SMEs by enhancing the innovation processes that will bring about  continuous improvement of their logistics functions. To this end, the IILQ offers SMEs applied research, technical assistance and knowledge transfer services in logistics and transport.

IILQ is regarded as an objective and independent resource that can propose solutions adapted to the needs and to the technological and organizational problems related to logistics functions in Quebec SMEs. Its expertise in logistics technologies is at the core of its digital transformations and Industry 4.0 services for businesses. This same expertise is recognized by clients, social and economic actors and active partners comprising universities, sectoral associations in the field of transport and logistics and public and para-public organizations. Since it was created, the IILQ has carried out hundreds of mandates throughout Quebec, in the context of providing technical and technological assistance to help SMEs select and implement new digital technologies including TMS, WMS, ERP and RFID. As a result, the IILQ has developed great expertise in the steps involved, ranging from interactive visits, pre-diagnostics, feasibility studies, process mapping and reengineering, through to specifications, needs analyses, and more. In the manufacturing logistics sector, the Institute provides personalized support in improving and/or integrating companies’ business processes as well as optimizing their warehouse management or layout and e-commerce.
