Tracking history
What This Reveals:
- Exact vessel location and speed
- Estimated arrival updates (more accurate than carrier estimates)
- Route deviations or delays in real-time
- Fleet positioning for capacity predictions
Strategic Business
Applications:
Cash Flow Management:
Know exactly when to prepare payment based on real arrival (not scheduled)
Customer Updates:
Provide accurate delivery dates using real vessel data
Warehouse Coordination:
Book labor and space based on actual (not theoretical) arrival
Problem Detection:
Spot delays immediately when vessels change course or stop
Competitive Advantage:
While competitors rely on carrier updates (often wrong), you track actual vessel movement.
See delays 3-5 days before carriers announce them, allowing proactive customer management.
