Ports

Port operators need timely and accurate information about vessel events for port calls to run smoothly. Unfortunately, current methods for generating and communicating operational data are antiquated, manual, unaligned and unpredictable. As a result, inaccurate data is often exchanged inconsistently, unclearly, or not at all, making port call optimization impossible. This leads to unexpected changes in the arrival and departure times of vessels, which disrupts planning for vessel operations and related activities such as nautical services. DCSA standards make port operations more predictable by ensuring every piece of data about events is aligned, accessible and actionable by every stakeholder, and that data is shared according to a clear, consistent and unambiguous process. With this level of transparency in place, it is possible to apply just-in-time (JIT) principles to port call events. Once established, JIT planned operations will reduce congestion, delays, waiting time and idle time. This will improve the customer experience and ultimately make port calls more sustainable by eliminating unnecessary fuel consumption and lowering emissions.
