Port of Rotterdam adds Boxinsider to Portbase

The Port of Rotterdam is adding its Track & Trace service Boxinsider, launched in October 2019, to Portbase, the digital infrastructure for Dutch ports.

The transition will begin immediately, with Boxinsider becoming part of the import services for cargo under the name Cargo Tracker.

Portbase will provide various types of service to all the parties involved in the port and the onward logistics chain. Track & Trace services are part of the total offer. The Port of Rotterdam and Portbase currently have separate data, knowledge and services that Track & Trace supports. Combining the Track & Trace activities of both organisations will create a more complete service and a clear proposition towards the market.

Cargo Tracker will be available as a pilot in the spring of 2020, according to the Port of Rotterdam Authority. Apart from visual changes to the screen, customers who were already connected to Boxinsider brands will not notice any impact from the transition, says the Port of Rotterdam. Customers who register will be able to use the service free of charge in the pilot phase.

The official launch will take place before the summer. The new service enables the parties involved to keep track of the cargo they handle or are the recipients of. Cargo Tracker is therefore particularly suitable for parties who outsource their logistics and reporting obligations but still want to keep an eye on the cargo flow in order to adjust their own processes and planning accordingly, said a Rotterdam Port statement.
