Integrate Vizion’s Data with Leading ERPs and TMSs

Connect Vizion’s port and terminal events to these leading platforms, plus any ERP, TMS or other software system. Adding Vizion data to your existing systems empowers advanced visibility into a container’s journey.

Know What’s Happening With Your Containers in as Close to Real-time as Possible

Vizion automatically pushes port and terminal events to your ERP, TMS or other software system, empowering you to reduce demurrage fees while increasing visibility into port activity. The result is that you can more proactively and strategically plan the movement of containers once they discharge at U.S. ports.

Few cargo owners or freight forwarders know what happens with their containers after discharge at ports. Vizion’s port and terminal events give you accurate status updates that help you better plan and manage your supply chain.

Many sources of container tracking data are not updated frequently enough to be useful. Vizion's container trace data lets you track in real-time and at a granular level, so you can monitor your shipments and prepare logistically for their arrival.

Knowing when your containers are nearing their last free date and when they are available for pickup allows you to better coordinate with drayage providers. This level of visibility leads to better management of inventory and a streamlining of your supply chain.

Port and terminal events, when used in tandem with other Vizion events, allow you to better manage or avoid altogether costly fees. These events also allow you to audit detention and demurrage fees, verifying that they are accurate.
