Episode 53: What does the future hold for schedule reliability?

Zencargo Episode 53

Schedule reliability has been a major talking point in the supply chain as shippers have struggled with blank sailings and schedule changes over the past few years.

For this episode of Freight to the Point, we’ve invited Niels Madsen, VP of Product and Operations at Sea Intelligence, to talk about the operational challenges shippers have faced due to schedule reliability.

Alongside Richard Fattal, they talk about:

  • The factors that will affect reliability in 2023 and beyond
  • The future of carrier strategies
  • Alliance and carrier strategy in the future
