Poor ocean visibility puts a strain on global supply chains, logistics costs, and customer service. At the root of the issue is low-quality data that hinders personnel productivity, streamlined operations, and proactive exception management.

Shippers and LSPs need global ocean visibility with high-quality data, insights, and workflow solutions to ensure efficient, cost-effective, reliable, and sustainable global transportation. 

But even as ocean visibility improves, terminals – one of the biggest sources of delays – remain a black box due to a lack of reliable data. Without visibility, shippers and LSPs face high demurrage fees, poor land-side operation management, inefficient warehouse management, and a host of other inefficiencies.
