DHL, has enhanced its tracking
capabilities by launching a new global ocean freight service called
Ocean Secure.
This service has been designed for customers who use to ship sensitive or high-value cargo i.e. who specifically belong to sciences & healthcare, technology, automotive and consumer goods industries.
By using Ocean Secure, DHL and customers both can access real time tracking and temperature data at any given point and take remedial action if necessary.
“Ocean Secure is a significant leap forward regarding transparency along the supply chain and a further development of the ocean freight business itself. Knowing the exact whereabouts and condition of their goods will give our customers more planning flexibility,’’ said Andreas Boedeker, global head of ocean freight, DHL Global Forwarding.
An integral part of the DHL Ocean Secure services are in-transit visibility and in-transit control. Customers have access to real time information on the location and condition of their shipment at any given time via an online platform. In case of irregularities, a DHL team will intervene. Intervention points are all over the world, ensuring customers that their goods are taken care of quickly.
The service is globally available and can be individualised by customers, depending on their needs. Customers can choose between container tracking along key milestones, monitoring of any opening of the container, or of temperature and humidity in the container leveraging the DHL SmartSensor GSM technology as well as real-time and in-transit information for all container parameters from remote areas and at sea through satellite transmission.
