Cochin port

Info

Customer Brief

Cochin Port, an all-weather natural port, is the major port in India strategically located near the international sea routes, being only 11 nautical miles from the Gulf to Singapore route and 76 nautical miles from the Suez Canal – Far East route. The port is governed by the Cochin Port Trust (CPT), a government of India establishment. Cochin Port operates a full-fledged Container Freight Station offering mechanized stuffing and de-stuffing service.

Challenge

With the advent of globalization and various government initiatives, there has been a major upswing growth in the volume of the year-on-year imports and exports over the past decade.

Import, Export, and Transshipment processes carried out at the Cochin Port CFS involved extensive documentation in the form of paper documents for every service catered against the container at the CFS. Examples of these included Bill of Entry (BE), Advanced Delivery Order (ADO), and Shipping Bill (SB). Manual handling of forms along with manual processes was slowing down CFS operations resulting in poor customer satisfaction.
