A workflow automation platform for participants in the maritime, shipping and logistics sectors, including terminal operators, port authorities, beneficial cargo owners, vessel owners and operators, carriers, insurers and corporates
As the focus on digitization increases, access to actionable, trusted data is more critical than ever when looking for new ways to drive growth, mitigate risk and adapt to ever-changing supply chain environments. The increasing volume, variety and complexity of data (including bill of lading, ports, AIS, vessel, container and cargo data), and the use of manually-maintained spreadsheets, databases and siloed systems, make it difficult for companies to truly leverage their data as an asset. As a workaround, many rely heavily on manual processes to merge and manage data sets across spreadsheets, vendor sources and home-grown databases. This increases operational risk and decreases response times. EDM, a workflow automation platform with data management at its core, addresses these challenges by automatically synchronizing data across disparate data sources, applications and users within the organization. EDM delivers five key capabilities: The EDM platform integrates with any internal or external data source, application or file structure, and pulls disparate data types from multiple sources which are then matched and aggregated in a central hub. It creates a consistent, single version of the truth in a traceable, audited environment.
