Christopher Mazza, Vice President and CCO at XVELA, said: “As an ocean carrier, Hapag-Lloyd understands that collaboration with terminals is essential to improving their operational efficiency and effectively managing their stowage planning and execution, and we are looking forward to demonstrating the value of the XVELA platform to that end in this pilot program.”

Jörn Springer, head of Hapag-Lloyd’s Fleet Support Center, said: “The more transparency there is throughout the transport chain, the more efficiently everyone involved can make plans for and employ their assets and resources. We anticipate that this new software will give us important operative advantages.

“Cloud-based solutions such as XVELA can provide us with real-time data, making it possible for us to considerably improve the exchange of information with terminals. So we’re excited about the pilot test and the advantages it can open up to us.”
