Porto Itapoá to simplify berth alignment with box lines through Portchain Connect

Porto Itapoá will use Portchain Connect to enhance the quality and speed of berth alignment with customers through digital handshakes and secure data sharing.

By leveraging Portchain Connect, the Brazilian port will receive real-time schedule and move count updates directly from carrier systems and respond quickly with counterproposals to align vessel schedules with the terminal’s berth plan, streamlining communication and improving efficiency.

“Joining Portchain Connect has enhanced our operational effectiveness and provided an easy-to-use digital platform for data exchange, improving the quality and timeliness of information,” said Sergni Pessoa Rosa Jr., Operations, Technology and Environment Director at Porto Itapoá

Portchain Connect streamlines the flow of schedule data to shorten the time to align the berthing window. The platform allows terminals and carriers to share and receive quality data and reduce delays in information transmission. Portchain Connect provides users with an overview of all their vessel calls and ensures they can securely transfer berthing information, remove the costs associated with manual non-digitised communication and align on berthing windows to improve schedule reliability.

“Delighted to announce Porto Itapoá’s onboarding onto Portchain Connect. Our collaboration aims to enhance operational efficiencies in key aspects of port operations, setting a positive trajectory for the shipping industry digitization,” commented Thor Thorup, CCO & Co-Founder at Portchain.
