Unlocking value across the container logistics supply chain

Features include real-time paperless tracking,frictionless information exchange, process automation, and optimised asset utilisation - as well as total container movement visibility for more proactive planning. The result is lowered cost of operations and improved profitability for one of the world's most essential industries.

Global Finance Report

 

Weekly Market Commentary
This is a 'huge week' in a year of 'huge weeks'! Trump arrives at the G7 amidst a storm of controversy. Other G7 members are seeking to ambush Trump and force a change on his trade policies, while pushing their Globalist Agenda. Trump has imposed tariffs on Europe and Canada, on Steel and Aluminium, while they have retaliated. Trump has dictated a penchant for reciprocal, bi-lateral trade agreements. This contradicts the existing, multi-lateral agreements, that have allowed recalcitrant members to impose a raft of their own tariffs and protectionist policies. ... read more

INDUSTRY OPINION: Cyber criminals and the turmoil caused to logistics businesses

Paul Zalai & James Cotis - FTA / APSA
DCN - Monday 4 June 2018

  • They were shocked that the incidents had happened;

  • They were convinced that their risk management systems and processes were adequate to prevent attacks such as these and used words like "robust", "foolproof", "bulletproof" and "couldn't happen" to describe their systems and the likelihood of a successful fraud against them;

  • Their existing information technology service providers did not possess the necessary skills and experienced to be of much help. ... read more
