Need real time data insights to support decision making?

In global trade across the oceans, ports are recognised as vital nodes that connect nations and facilitate the movement of goods. However, there is an underlying challenge that is common to all maritime players: port congestion. GSTS provides transformational insights through OCIANATM Port Analytics and is instrumental in managing turbulent waters.

OCIANATM Port Analytics harnesses the power of big data and through its modeling capabilities, it provides real-time insights into port operations, enabling stakeholders to make informed decisions.

As a sample analysis, OCIANATM can guide a cargo vessel’s choice and guide the vessel to Port A. Despite congestion levels, historical vessel data and models produced by OCIANATM Port Analytics indicated Port A’s superior performance in minimizing wait times for vessels of similar specifications. This nuanced insight influenced the decision, resulting in the vessel’s successful and swift navigation through Port A. The example underscores the platform’s capacity to harness historical performance data, enabling informed choices that optimize supply chain efficacy and reinforce the platform’s instrumental role in shaping the future of maritime commerce.
