A waterfall chart can be an illustrative way to visualize how time is distributed among the key port call processes and unplanned delays. This can be a great help for operations and demurrage teams in mainly two ways: - Revealing the impact of each process on the total port call duration, helping to identify areas for optimization and forecast with accuracy; - Being able to budget demurrage costs and negotiating better clauses based on historical performance; A standard way of breaking down a port call is through three time-frames: Pre Berth (NoR to All Fast), Pre Operations (All Fast to Ops Start), and Operations (Ops Start to Ops Complete). This ensures you have a complete view of a port’s congestion, efficiency, and readiness. Take a look at our Port Turnaround Insights tool to see a waterfall chart in action and explore the data behind over 30,000 SoF events from around the world. https://lnkd.in/d-mAucR5 #demurrage #voyager #bulkshipping #maritimeindustry

Ever wondered what lies behind the high expectations in corporate IT? The link between our expectations and job security is undeniable. Quantitatively measured metrics in two categories—KTLO (Keep The Lights On) and OTOB (On Time On Budget)—are meticulously managed. KTLO ensures the reliable, continuous functioning of IT operations. OTOB focuses on executing change initiatives, relying on on-time delivery and cost control. However, non-standardized areas are often overlooked. A holistic approach is needed as short-term perspectives can obscure IT's true value, impacting long-term adaptability and quality. https://rfr.bz/l6uck9z #money #technology #value Follow R.M.
