To find the answer, let\u2019s break this down. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s assume you have 500 shipments<\/strong> a month and you work with 7 to 15 shipping lines<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a0To know the current location of all your 500 shipments, you are forced to look at each shipping line\u2019s website and enter a master bill of lading or container number. Each and every time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Right??<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s do the maths here<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n On average, it takes 2 mins to track 1 shipment from 1 shipping line<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1 shipment \u00a0 \u00a0 = 2 min<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 500 shipments \u00a0 = 1000 mins<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, you also have to trawl through 7 to 15 independent websites for each shipping line, which is again going to take you time and effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 15 shipping lines\u2019 site\u00a0 = 15 mins<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Next, there are generally 6 to 12 checkpoints<\/strong> in every shipment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Gate in, container loaded on the vessel, container about to reach transshipment port,\u00a0 container loaded on the vessel at transshipment port, container reached the destination, container gated out, etc.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n On average you would find 8 checkpoints in any shipment.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n So\u2026now imagine<\/p>\n\n\n\n Based on the time required for 500shipments for a single checkpoint<\/p>\n\n\n\n Checking a total of \u201c8 checkpoints\u201d to \u201c500 shipments\u201d<\/strong> a month\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n You have been forced to devote 8,000 mins of your time!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s right, 8,000 minutes!<\/strong> That\u2019s 133 hours,<\/strong> or put another way, over 16 \u00bd working days!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 16 \u00bd?! That\u2019s more than most people\u2019s annual holiday allowance!! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n And that\u2019s not even including the time it takes for you to store these records to analyze the levels of service that your carriers are (or are not) providing you for the money you are paying them\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, this is the best-case scenario.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I know what is going on in your head\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n HECK, I have already wasted 17days \u2026now it continues to be more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The reality is that you will NEVER<\/strong> be able to hit all the checkpoints on estimated time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Because it\u2019s nearly impossible\u2026 Delay happens<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And for every delay, you have to track your shipments on their revised expected date. And you need to do this for every delay, for every shipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In your head, if you are thinking-\u00a0 Is it worth investing so much time on tracking containers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n ABSOLUTELY YES. Here\u2019s why this matters to you\u2026\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n So, now the real question isn\u2019t why I should track my shipments\u2026. it\u2019s whether or not I can do something to simplify it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Simple.
