You can always see the current status of your load via the cargo overview; When has your ship arrived, been unloaded and has an inspection and an import document been issued? For the safe handling of your cargo, you can nominate and/or authorize the next party in your logistics chain with Cargo Controller. Depending on your role and nomination in the process, you may or may not receive insight into which goods have been shipped. The timeline provides insight into the logistics process and all parties involved in your cargo.
Cargo Controller and the Secure Chain
With Cargo Controller we are transparent in the data of your cargo and certain information is only accessible to parties who are actually allowed to view this information, through nomination and authorization. In Cargo Controller you determine which partners are allowed to handle your cargo. In this way, the service is part of the Secure Chain, a renewed process for sharing data with each other safely and reliably in the Dutch ports. More information about the Secure Chain can be found here.
