With so much at stake, Port Intel aims to be a timely solution for supply chain professionals. Port Intel helps them assess the status of their shipments and supply chain, allowing for proactive planning and risk mitigation.

Users can access the report by visiting the Port Intel site and entering vessel identifiers, bill of lading identifiers or ocean container numbers. The reports are curated by project44’s visibility experts to provide recommendations that integrate real-time data with proven shipping strategies.

project44 is the advanced visibility platform for shippers and logistics service providers and connects, automates and provides visibility into key transportation processes to accelerate insights and shorten the time it takes to turn those insights into actions.
