Adapting To New Ocean Shipping Dynamics
Maersk Line and Hapag-Lloyd both reported sequentially increasing uptake of digital quoting tools in 2020, while a number of other container lines and many of the top 25 global forwarders now have such capability. Add smaller NVOs and freight rate marketplaces into the mix and shippers have an eye-watering number of options from which to secure an instant rate. Is this the way the market will eventually go? Will instant quoting replace spot rates? How important are these transactional tools to the digital ambitions of container lines and large forwarders?

The Logistics Technology Breakthrough
The number of logistics technology solutions on the market can seem overwhelming to buyers, but there is a way through the fog. Whether you’re a forwarder, carrier, or shipper, it’s important to have a strategy for understanding what your business needs, what solutions address those needs, and then ensuring that the preferred solutions can be integrated effectively with existing systems, partners, and customers. Brian Glick, CEO of the logistics systems integration specialist Chain.io, sees these issues on a daily basis, and will walk the market through a multi-step guide to managing this process, including the consequential aspect of "wiring it all together." This session will serve as a link between the substantive and granular technology sessions on days 1 and 2 of TPM21.

TMS is no modern innovation — indeed, the concept of a global TMS linking supply chain and logistics partners and based on the power of the internet is entering its third decade. But a new breed of systems is emerging with a more open mindset, one where the TMS isn’t a turnkey and static fix but rather a vehicle to incorporate a range of ancillary products and services, predominantly through application programming interface. This session will examine what the next decade of TMS innovation is likely to look like.
