East China Precision Equipment Manufacturer

For bulk equipment exports, priority was given to capacity and loading efficiency. Planned trucking and pre-clearance improved on-time rates and reduced exception costs.

Client Background

Client ships 80+ TEU monthly from multiple East China ports to Europe and North America, involving high-value precision equipment requiring strict handling and timeline control.

Challenge

Peak season capacity wasn't guaranteed, port congestion caused detention; customs documents required multiple supplements; trucking and loading plans were fragmented with low coordination efficiency.

Solution Approach

1Main route capacity lock + backup routes in parallel, established capacity pool
2Daily scheduling for trucking, loading, customs, and release
3Customs document pre-review and high-value cargo securing solutions
4Port congestion contingency plans with priority handling
