How Metaal Transport improved its operational efficiency with one single tool
Metaal Transport was founded in 1964 and is specialized in the warehousing and transportation of non-ferrous metals, steel products, and ferroalloys. They are LME and MMTA certified and offer stevedoring services for vessels.
Case Overview
Metaal Transport used to perform cargo inspections with handheld cameras. Pictures were taken at the site by one team and uploaded to a pc via memory card by another coworker. The whole team noticed that processing inspections were time-consuming, and many errors were made due to manual entry.
The previous process of collecting references required much work to link the visual evidence to a particular file or shipment. Furthermore, it was laborious to send a large number of photos and documents to customers via e-mail.
Due to this scenario, Metaal Transport was looking for a solution to centralize its cargo inspection data and speed up operational processes. Then, the company adopted Cargosnap to help them optimize processes and create a transparent end-to-end inspection.
“Cargosnap makes straightforward and faster processes by creating real-time inspection visibility.
