My challenge
Not the ‘big boys’ with big budgets.
Need to spend my investment dollar wisely.
Need to remain competitive, attractive, and profitable!
Where are the greatest returns?
How can I realise a faster ROI?
Capital expenditure – heavy equipment such as cranes/machinery?
Technology – software and processes?
The risk

Finding the calm
Core areas you can put under the microscope in the search for calm…
VBS/web portals/gate Yard/machines Business operations
VBS/web portals/gate
The chaos of a multi-lane entry point The calm from streamlined processes and systems
CHAOS CALM
Pre-booked cargoTrucks arriving randomly
Incorrect paper work
Long wait times(waiting for cargo to be located and delivered to truck)
Emissions (from trucks idling)
Streamlined queues – booked slots
Real-time cargo and driver clearance
Cargo retrieved and ready for placement on truck
Mobile application - worker checking a truck with a mobile device
Manual cargo &
driver checks
Yard/machines
CHAOS CALMThe chaos of a busy yard The calm from streamlined processes and
systems
Trucks waiting for their cargo
Top-pick searching stacks for containers
Cargo stored in random laydown areas
Reefer monitoring
On dock rail
Moving containersto get the one you need
Auto yard planning – hazmat segregation
Sub-terminals – designated areas for project cargo etc
Orderly machine moves, real-time queuing (RTQs) on in-cab devices (RMG module)
Mobile devices for monitoring reefers
Cargo retrieved and ready for placement on truck
Business operations
CHAOS CALMThe chaos of a hectic operation The calm of a well run business operation
Has the customer been charged for all the services provided?
The status of the operation is not quickly and easily accessible i.e no reporting
Unaware why certain parts of the organization are causing problems
Lack of room, real estate at a premium
Reduced revenue leakage (by capturing transactions etc in the systems)
Enhanced reporting information and accuracy – visibility, entire operational view
Increased visibility of operational bottlenecks (can identify where the root cause is)
Enhanced utilization of physical operational footprint
• Increasing productivity and attractiveness doesn’t always require large capital investment (cranes, berths etc)
• There are opportunities for short/medium term gains (ROI)• Put your organization under the microscope and look for
areas where efficiencies can be made
Summary
Small increases
in efficiency
Greater efficiency across the entire operation
