DP World unveils container tracking solution
DP World, a leading enabler of global trade and an integral part of the supply chain, today demonstrated the most advanced container tracking solution developed by a port terminal operator under the theme of “Where’s My Container?” at Transport Logistic in Munich.
The enhancement to the current beta version, after feedback from a pilot release, opens the door for users to have greater visibility of their cargo and improves speed-to-shelf opportunities such as improved replenishment forecasts and better inventory allocation.
The container tracking solution represents a major step forward for customers by reducing administration and providing better data quality for their planning and logistics of getting products onto shelves. This solution will be rolled out in a phased manner and initially be made available across DP World’s UK terminals.
