Reduced TDO and truck waiting times with new Dynamic TDO and Delivery services

With our commitment to continuous service improvement, we, at APM Terminals Apapa, have rolled out two new digital initiatives for our customers as a part of our ongoing digital transformation!  

The first one, Dynamic TDO, brings an impressive – and a much faster – process of generating TDO with multiple containers on the bill of lading (BL). The second one, Dynamic Delivery, allows a faster process of loading customers’ containers in the yard. Containers are loaded using Easy Pick. This means that containers on the BL, which are free of impediments, will be positioned closest to the gate, with the easest access. We will have equipment available in area and 2x20’ to load from.

These two initiatives enable…

• Reduction of waiting time during TDO generation for BL with multiple containers, as all the containers will be printed on one copy and copies re-printed for the number of containers on that BL.
• Reduction of truck waiting time and inefficiency as containers will be loaded using easy pick
• A QR code on the TDO improves security and transaction time at the gate, as users no longer have to enter container numbers manually. This also it mitigates errors and omissions.

Both services can be ordered free of charge through TERMView. We are excited to see how these will benefit our customers and improve the service delivery!
