COVER STORY

VICT uses 1-Stop Vehicle Booking System Victoria International Container Terminal (VICT) has tapped 1-Stop Connections to implement its Vehicle Booking System (VBS) after the successful implementation of the Terminal Appointment Booking System (TABS) at the Manila International Container Terminal (MICT) in the Philippines.

VICT uses an array of 1-Stop solutions, which includes a special version of the Vehicle Book designed specifically for VICT. The VBS, 1-Stop’s flagship product, is the premier system for Terminal to Landside interface. It is currently deployed in 12 terminals across Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines. Some of the benefits of using 1-Stop’s VBS include reduced queue times, decreased truck turnaround times, decreased vessel dwell times, improved throughput, and increased terminal utilization.

Aside from the VBS, VICT also utilizes 1-Stop’s customs-and-shipping line-enabled message integration, Pre-Receival Advice with new Weigh at Terminal functions, online payments system, gate access via ID card, and Electronic Import Delivery Orders. These are integrated with VICT’s systems via 1-Stop’s CargoConnect, a middle-ware technology that connects all of VICT’s systems and provides real-time data to both VICT and their customers.

By Arif Raza

Pakistan International Container Terminal (PICT) has gotten to a good start in 2017 after recording its highest monthly volume last January. PICT saw a volume increase of 17.7 percent in January compared to the same month in 2016. The number serves as a significant accomplishment for PICT as the record volume exceeded the terminal’s actual capacity. “This accomplishment proves our ability to rise to the occasion and exceed expectations. We are proud of the combined efforts of our teams who made this achievement possible,” said Capt. Zafar Iqbal Awan, PICT Chief Executive Officer. He adds: “We, as an organization, continuously seek to maximize our operations in order to deliver consistent and efficient service to our valued customers and move forward with respect to our volume contribution to Pakistan for 2017.”

The Foundation and PBSP signed agreements involving four CSR projects amounting to PHP 13.5 million. The new agreements further strengthened the ICTSI Group’s commitment as a corporate citizen of the country through the Foundation’s support of PBSP programs and projects. Of note are projects supporting indigenous peoples’ education and the Philippine government’s campaign against illegal drugs. These projects were chosen as they are aligned with the Foundation’s core advocacy: the youth. The projects are construction of a school building at the Calay Indigenous Peoples (IP) School in Saranggani; construction of a dormitory building at the Bataan Treatment Rehabilitation Center; continued implementation of the Parola Solid Waste Management Project in Manila; and the installation of a potable water system in an IP community in Tarlac.

In coordination with the Philippine Department of Education, a new school building will be constructed for the Calay Indigenous Peoples School in Sitio Puting Bato, Barangay Lunmasia, Malapatan town, Saranggani Province.

The building will have two classrooms and two restrooms with a capacity to accommodate 90 primary and elementary school students. The Foundation will also provide tables, chairs, cabinets and other school furniture.
