According to Portchain, JBS Terminais is set to become a part of the Portchain Connect network. This collaboration aims to enhance the efficiency and quality of berth alignment for JBS Terminais by utilizing digital handshakes and secure data sharing. The partnership is expected to streamline communication processes, ultimately leading to improved coordination at the terminal.
With Portchain Connect, JBS Terminais will gain access to real-time updates regarding schedules and move counts directly from carrier systems. This capability allows them to respond swiftly and propose adjustments that align vessel schedules with terminal plans more effectively.
Bruno Duarte, Operational Strategy and Performance Coordinator at JBS Terminais, remarked on the benefits of this tool: “Portchain Connect has significantly enhanced clarity and collaboration in berth alignment, ensuring all stakeholders remain informed.”
The platform itself simplifies data flow related to scheduling, which helps minimize delays in berthing windows. By facilitating seamless information exchange between terminals and carriers, Portchain Connect not only reduces reliance on outdated manual communication but also enhances overall schedule reliability.
Thor Thorup, CCO & Co-Founder of Portchain expressed enthusiasm about this new partnership: “We are thrilled that JBS Terminais is joining our expanding network as we work together towards achieving more efficient and coordinated berth alignment.”
