Wouldn’t it be great if you could manage ocean shipments for your business and have real-time access to every detail regarding your vessel’s location on the water?
CargoWise’s vessel tracking integration is intended to provide logistics teams like yours with this level of visibility, transforming a once-complicated activity into an easier and more efficient component of your workflow.
Companies that use integrated vessel tracking receive real-time updates on maritime freight, clear visibility into arrival times, and automated alerts for any delays or interruptions. This feature not only aids in logistics planning but also ensures that consumers receive the most accurate and timely information about their shipments.
Key Benefits of Integrating Vessel Tracking with CargoWise
Real-Time Vessel Location
One of the most significant benefits of CargoWise’s vessel tracking integration is that it enables real-time tracking for all vessels transporting your cargo. Traditional tracking solutions sometimes delay cargo position updates and rely on manual input, resulting in information gaps and possible misinterpretation.
Accurate ETA Updates
Along with knowing where a shipment is in real-time, ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) is an important part of logistics planning. To deliver precise ETAs, CargoWise’s integration uses vessel tracking services directly. When you can see accurate arrival timeframes, you can better manage dock resources, warehouse availability, manpower, and downstream logistics.
Proactive Alerts for Route Changes or Delays
CargoWise vessel tracking goes beyond passive observation to offer proactive warnings and notifications for key incidents. For example, if a shipment is delayed, rerouted, or faces some unanticipated issue, CargoWise may notify you and your team. This keeps you informed and allows you to change as needed, without having to go out of your way to obtain information.
Enhanced Customer Communication
Customers rely on your team’s ability to keep them updated on their shipments. CargoWise vessel tracking integration makes it simple to provide customers with fast updates, ensuring that they have the most accurate and up-to-date information available. This open line of communication not only builds your relationship with customers but also increases their happiness and faith in your services.
