ICO's Ship Comes in With Business Intelligence

International Car Operators (ICO), a world-leading stevedoring company that handles roll-on/roll-off cargo operations, is a leader in international vehicle transport, processing about 1,600,000 vehicles each year with a fleet of more than 1,000 ships. Before they reach their final destination, these cars, vans, trucks, and other vehicles have already put on countless miles traveling from the factories where they were built.

ICO also uses Information Builders iWay adapters to facilitate smooth integration of data coming from various platforms. At Antwerp’s terminal, iWay essentially provides all “pre-announcements” processing. When a ship sails to one of ICO’s terminals, iWay adapters convert all vehicle information into operational data. iWay also monitors each vehicle’s follow-up, and other aspects of its life cycle.
