Kuehne+Nagel has launched a new dashboard in its online platform that harnesses data of a geo system cloud solution to allow customers to track all their containers in real-time.
The Container Dashboard is meant to reduce manual effort in identifying milestones and current deviations from the planned schedule.
According to the logistics provider, it increases accuracy and productivity by eliminating previous white spots in supply chain transparency and also enables early preventive measures for the cargo.
Otto Schacht, member of the management board of Kuehne+Nagel International AG, responsible for Sea Logistics, said “To meet the demands of today’s markets, shipping visibility must enable logistics operators to detect exceptions in real time and take preventive action before an order is disrupted.
“The Container Dashboard gives our customers an unparalleled edge in exception management. Backed by Kuehne+Nagel’s global network, which offers a wide range of alternative shipping options, our expert teams can react and reschedule faster in case of route plan deviations or delays.”
As part of Kuehne+Nagel’s digital solution myKN, users can receive notifications on the next milestones, such as pick-up or departure, improving the transparency of their door-to-door transport chain.
This includes pre- and on-carriage, demurrage and detention, as well as transhipments.
A new user interface lists container flows and dwell times and highlights deviations from the initial carrier schedule.
Long-term analytics allow customers to reorganise routes that consistently exceed dwell times.
The underlying real-time geo system collects and includes telemetry and multiple internal and external industry data sources, such as carrier data, terminal information, route maps, and vessel trackers, to improve the accuracy of the estimated time of arrival.
