Shippeo, a digital supply chain visibility company, and BuyCo, a container shipping software platform, have established a strategic partnership to provide shippers with total visibility and control throughout the whole container shipping process, from early planning and booking to real-time tracking.
Shippeo and BuyCo aim to use this collaboration to help large-volume shippers optimise processes, respond quickly to exceptions, and improve the overall customer experience.
Shippers may simply get important shipment schedules from their preferred carriers by using BuyCo’s large network of ocean carriers. They can then choose the best alternative based on factors such as CO2 emissions, cost, estimated time of arrival (ETA), and allocations.
“Our partnership with Shippeo represents a significant step forward in providing shippers with the tools they need to thrive in the complex world of container shipping,” stated CEO of BuyCo, Carl Lauron.
BuyCo provides shippers with strong key performance indicators (KPIs) to improve procedures, optimise inventory management, and cut costs. Shippers may decrease their carbon footprint by regularly monitoring CO2 emissions, and tracking detention and demurrage fees allowing them to save money.
In parallel, Shippeo provides visibility and container tracking capabilities. Shippers obtain reliable visibility data and extremely precise forecast ETAs for both land and ocean transportation by having direct access to major ocean carriers, real-time AIS data, and terminal insights.
“By integrating our solutions, shippers can seamlessly manage all container shipping operations through BuyCo, and gain end-to-end visibility in real-time with Shippeo,” added Pierre Khoury, Shippeo’s CEO.
