Port terminal operators cannot efficiently manage real-time congestion and capacity constraints across global supply chains

Port congestion is creating cascading delays across global supply chains, with terminal operators struggling to optimize vessel scheduling, cargo flow, and equipment allocation in real-time. Current manual and fragmented systems fail to provide visibility into bottlenecks across multiple ports simultaneously, forcing operators to make reactive decisions that compound delays. Terminal managers need predictive capacity planning and automated workflow optimization to prevent congestion before it impacts downstream logistics networks.

News in Brief Podcast | Week 41 2026 | Congestion, cyber threat, and capacity constraint

Port congestion is putting pressure on global supply chains from West Africa and Europe to the Middle East, while escalating conflict is creating fresh challenges for air cargo. In this episode, Drewry’s head of Ports and Terminals, Eirik Hooper, joins us to discuss the causes of congestion, whether...
