Port Container Operations
Container location, lock authorisation and entry and exit records across the port premises
Who Is This For
Port operations manager accountable for yard throughput, container security and storage fees, working through manual processes and a large workforce.
The Challenge
High container volumes congest the yards, containers are hard to locate, and opening or closing a container needs paperwork and manual authorisation. Theft goes unnoticed until a container is checked, and storage fees rest on records that are hard to verify.
Key Pain Points
- Containers are hard to locate across a busy yard
- Opening and closing depend on paperwork and manual authorisation
- Theft and unauthorised access go unnoticed until inspection
- Storage fees calculated from records that are hard to verify
How Cypod Solves It
Containers carry a CyLock or CySeal while they are on port premises. The dashboard shows each container's position and status, geofences around yards and gates record entry and exit times, and unlocking is authorised per person, either in the mobile app over Bluetooth or remotely from the control centre.
Key Solution Features
- Live position and status of each container across the port's zones
- Lock and unlock authorisation managed per user, on site or remotely
- Alerts on tampering, unauthorised access and geofence entry or exit
- Reports on container counts, actions, status and entry and exit times
- Historical movements played back on the map
Key Benefits
Containers located from one dashboard instead of on foot
An audit trail of who opened which container, where and when
Daily storage records to calculate fees from
Unlocking authorised in the app rather than on paper
