Performance Monitoring
Know how efficiently ports are operating, including how performance has changed over time, to make the best decisions on where to send your freight.
Data set details
Things to Know
Port performance is time focused, how long does a container take to gate out from when it arrives on a vessel? Time measurements can be compared against volume measurements in the data for insights into what drivers changes in performance time.
Port performance data does contain data for future dates such as vessels expected to berth at this time but no other future or predictive data points are included.
Port performance is not port congestion. Today Vizion only tracks container vessels, not tankers, breakbulk, etc. Because we do not track all vessels we can not truly say what vessel congestion is at a port.
Questions this data set can answer
Should I ship to a different port based on historical arrival to gate out time trends for ports in use today?
Are volumes shifting to different ports and changing the port performance time?
Do containers or vessel volumes affect port performance for a given port?
Be the First to Know When Port Disruptions Emerge
Port performance monitoring data empowers you to track performance across the ports that are most important to your business. If and when disruptions emerge, port performance data serves as a first-alert system, giving you time to redirect cargo as needed.
Knowing where your containers are located and when they will arrive isn’t enough for visibility. You need data on how your ports of destination are performing so that you can anticipate when your containers will be available for pickup.
Port disruptions can come from various sources. With port performance data in place, your business can be among the first to know when port issues are affecting efficiency, giving you time to redirect your containerized freight.
Vizion’s data includes a last-7-days figure as well as prior 8–14-day aggregations so you can see how trends have changed. You can also access regional and national roll-ups of the data for evaluating East Coast vs. West Coast ports or making other comparisons.
There’s always uncertainty across the global supply chain. Any shipper or LSP needs data from multiple sources to make informed, confident decisions. Vizion’s port performance monitoring works in tandem with other Vizion data to empower you to make the best decisions.
