ITS and Advent partner on predictive cargo availability at Long Beach

International Transportation Service, Inc. (ITS) and Advent Intermodal Solutions (AIS) are partnering to expand Advent’s eModal community portal to enable automated appointments and predictive visibility for customers at the Port of Long Beach.

The system will provide visibility as to exactly when import cargo becomes available for pickup, in an effort to further streamline the flow of cargo through the supply chain.

The new function will change the PreGate and Appointment processes in eModal by enabling the user to either request an appointment slot or select a pre-arrival notification automatically.
