Digital supply chain solution launches in LA

GE Transportation and the Port of Los Angeles, USA, have launched a new digital ocean supply chain solution on a pilot basis at APM Terminals with Maersk Line and the Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC).

The solution aims to ensure an efficient flow of cargo at the port by providing a platform able to digitise maritime shipping data and share it with cargo owners and supply chain operators.

In addition to increased visibility, the system, which makes data available to the parties through a secure and channelled access, is expected to provide “a collaborative view of data” for the entire ocean supply chain.
