Pusan Newport Company implements Portchain Connect to
simplify the berth alignment process with shipping lines
Portchain today announced Pusan Newport Company will join the Portchain Connect network.
Pusan Newport Company will use Portchain Connect to increase the quality and speed of their
berth alignment with customers through digital handshakes and secure data sharing. Portchain
is excited to partner with Pusan Newport Company to simplify their communication channels
and improve overall berth alignment. Portchain Connect enables Pusan Newport Company to
receive real-time schedule and move count updates directly from carrier systems, and enables
them to respond and counter propose quickly, to align the vessel schedule with the terminal
berth plan.
Portchain Connect
Portchain Connect streamlines the flow of schedule data to shorten the time to align the
berthing window. The platform allows terminals and carriers to share and receive quality data
and reduce delays in information transmission. Portchain Connect provides users with an
easy-to-use overview of all their vessel calls and ensures they can securely transfer berthing
information, remove the costs associated with manual non-digitised communication and align on
berthing windows to improve schedule reliability. Download the brochure for more information.
“We’re proud to partner with Pusan Newport Company. This collaboration reflects our shared
commitment to smarter, more transparent planning that benefits both terminals and shipping
lines.”
