Success Case
A major Latin American port improved coordination, compliance, and asset traceability thanks to Grydd Portus.
Company Overview
Handling over three million TEUs annually, this major Latin American port connects regional trade routes to global supply chains. The port coordinates operations between shipping lines, terminals, customs agencies, and port authorities. Its success relies on operational efficiency, regulatory compliance, and reliable communication among multiple actors to maintain competitive turnaround times and deliver consistent, auditable service quality to international shipping companies.
The Pain
Manual coordination, disconnected systems, and paper-based processes caused costly delays, compliance issues, and inefficient resource allocation during vessel operations.
Goal and Business Opportunity
The port sought to modernize its operational structure by reducing vessel idle time, improving real-time coordination, and guaranteeing compliance with international standards. It needed a unified platform capable of integrating scheduling, service management, and asset tracking. The goal was to achieve seamless communication between agencies, terminals, and authorities, ensuring transparency, operational reliability, and measurable cost reductions through digital transformation and centralized information control.
The Process
Grydd introduced Portus to digitize and integrate the port’s key processes — from vessel arrival planning to departure coordination. Using centralized scheduling tools, Portus allowed all stakeholders to manage vessel services, reservations, and authorizations from one platform. Real-time dashboards displayed vessel turnaround performance, resource allocation, and service completion. Asset traceability modules helped track port equipment, vehicles, and units, minimizing misuse and improving accountability. Automated documentation and audit trails ensured compliance and transparency for both regulatory and client reporting. The platform streamlined communication across port agencies, reduced rework, and improved service reliability with carriers. With Portus, the port transitioned from manual, reactive operations to a proactive, data-driven management model. This transformation enhanced productivity, reduced idle vessel time, and built stronger trust between the port authority and global shipping partners.
