HarborTech connects the systems
and people behind every cargo movement, creating one operational view
from the port to the wider
trade corridor.
Terminal, carrier, customs, forwarder, haulier, agent and depot each hold their own ETA. They are reconciled into one before the ship is in sight.
The vessel slips six hours against a 12:00 export cut-off. The cargo at risk is found, a new handling window is set, and every party confirms before it closes.
Berth planning, crane scheduling and discharge sequencing run live against the arrival window.
Each container is read at the crane as it is discharged and handed to the yard, with every position known to the system.






Manual truck processing takes 7+ minutes per vehicle.

Manual truck processing takes 7+ minutes per vehicle.

Critical operations remain spread across separate systems and records.

Manual tallying creates billing gaps, disputes and missed service charges.

Once cargo leaves the gate, visibility across road and rail can fall away.

Without accurate location records, yards create unnecessary re-handles and delays.

Manual documentation can add 10+ minutes to shipment processing.

Container, general cargo, bulk, RORO and liquid, managed together from the berth to the hinterland.
01 · Port terminal
Port and rail out of step
Trains arrive before containers are ready, or wait for slots that never open.
Solved
Train slots planned around the port’s release and berth schedules.
02 · Corridor
No end-to-end status
Shippers cannot see where a wagon or container is between origin and destination.
Solved
Live wagon and container status from the quay to the inland destination.
03 · Inland terminal
Inland terminals on paper
Dry ports and ICDs track inventory manually, so corridor capacity is guessed.
Solved
Inventory, planning and execution for the inland terminal in one system.

Ask us directly →No. An alert tells you something changed. HarborTech works out which cargo, bookings and downstream commitments are affected, recommends an action within the operational constraints, gives it to an accountable party with a deadline, and holds the exception open until the operational state has actually been updated. That is a business transaction, not a notification.
