IAS was given the award for its dispatch solutions for international transportation and global cargo container shipping. The company’s solutions help customers reduce idling times and emissions, increase equipment utilisation, while also reducing noise, fuel consumption and air pollution.
James Miller, account executive, IAS, told GreenPort: “It is well-known that street-turns produce green benefits such as lowered fuel use and emissions, decreased noise and air pollution, and reduced traffic and port congestion. We received the award for developing technology that supports and aligns originators and receivers to easily and collaboratively create mutually beneficial street-turn work orders. In this way, DispatchOptimizer makes those sought after carbon savings and environmental benefits a reality.”
Paul J Crinks, CEO, IAS, added: “IAS DispatchManager and DispatchOptimizer help customers address idling times at ports, drive down empty running miles, shrink fuel bills, and boost truck and container utilisation to address the environmental impact of hauling shipments.”
IAS’s DispatchManager and DispatchOptimizer solutions are used to increase dispatch productivity and improving customer service between ocean carriers, logistics providers, beneficial cargo owners (BCOs) and their motor carriers.
