Shipping Lines’ schedules are not reliable. According to SeaIntelligence, on-time arrivals ranged from 65 to 76 percent in the first nine months of 2018. It is evident that, as a forwarder or BCO, the visibility of your carrier(s) is essential thing for your logistics operational efficiency. As one shipper told the Journal of Commerce Magazine, “supply chains are frequently built around the container transport portion,” and “delays impact relationships with suppliers and customers.” Inaccurate ETAs and a lack of visibility also hinder production lines or create discounting woes for apparel shippers whose goods might be delayed past a promotional season.

Solution

ShipsGo after each shipment, informs you concerning the performance of your shipping lines and suggests you (if any) another shipping line having shorter transit time. Make your shipments visible.

About ShipsGo

ShipsGo’s vision is to make people happy with the information. Since the beginning of our journey in the container transportation business, we have been trying to organize the shipping industry’s information and make it accessible universally. We have developed our well-known two products in the digital container transportation market; container tracking and route finder. These two products were developed for “visibility” in container transport. We provide information on the current position of containers and carriers’ route performances (transit time and reliability). We have reached 5,000 daily searches on our website from 70+ countries and plan to reach 30,000 daily searches worldwide.
