Technology is playing a pivotal role in the ports sector as it is progressively being implemented to enhance operational efficiency.
According to Renko Bergh, co-founder of technology company CtrlFleet, the emphasis is on value enablers for both clients and stakeholders, leveraging software features to generate valuable data.
“One example involves our logistics clients utilising a customer portal, seamlessly integrating truck tracking data with our scheduling tool.
"This integration facilitates real-time estimated time of arrivals, prompts for exceptions, and access to documentation captured by truck drivers through our dedicated driver application.
"Accessible via mobile devices, this customer portal has significantly minimised the conventional need for continuous phone calls and messages, streamlining the process of determining truck arrival times for loading or off loading slots,” he told Freight News.
