Later phases of the project will address integration for other common industry transaction sets, including shipment documentation (bill of lading instructions) and shipment status (track and trace).
CCC is one of Thailand's largest exporters and a major producer of plastic resins, shipping nearly 30,000 full containers of product annually to customers around the world.
Previously, CCC was doing bookings with ocean carrier partners via email, phone and fax. This process meant that the carriers had to manually re-enter the information into their systems, which was inefficient, error-prone and time-consuming.
The GT Nexus program allows CCC to leverage a single “integration hub" to hook up with many carriers, using standardized, automated data processes that are consistent across all carriers for transmitting electronic bookings. CCC improves data accuracy and timeliness, and is relieved of the technical burden to build and manage expensive, one-off electronic integrations directly with each individual ocean carrier.
“CCC is an excellent example of a forward-looking organization embracing the power of an industry utility to enhance service to their customers and reduce supply chain costs,” said John Urban, GT Nexus president. “As one of Thailand's largest industrial concerns and biggest exporters, they will bring considerable volumes to the portal, driving further efficiencies to carriers as well as their internal business processes.”
Cementhai Chemicals is a petrochemical holding company, wholly-owned by The Siam Cement Public Company Limited (Siam Cement) - Thailand's largest industrial conglomerate with leading market positions in each of its core businesses of cement, petrochemicals, and paper and packaging.
