How Enhanced Container Tracking Improves ETA Accuracy and Supply Chain Visibility

The unprecedented levels of supply chain disruption brought about in 2020 and the first half of 2021 have highlighted the need for forwarders and shippers to invest in systems, data, and strategy.

Organizations that have armed themselves with these capabilities have performed better and executed at a higher degree by managing shipments using real-time visibility data rather than dates provided at the time of booking or based on a fixed schedule. In particular, the ability to accurately manage the estimated time of arrival (ETA) and downstream activities, such as drayage, transload, delivery to consignee, updates to customers, etc., can be greatly improved if the time of arrival is constantly updated by predictive analytics and a next-level visibility solution.
