This JOC article identifies some interesting statistics that will affect port operations (West Coast and other) as shippers divert to avoid potential disruptions from the current ILWU negotiations. (some still stinging from the 2002 disruption)
The document discusses congestion issues at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Multiple factors are contributing to the problem, including larger cargo ships taking longer to unload, a shortage of chassis to transport containers, and ongoing labor conflicts slowing operations. This is impacting ocean carriers, port employees, transportation companies, warehouses, retailers and consumers. Potential solutions discussed include improving port operations to handle larger ships more efficiently, rerouting some ships to other ports, and resolving the labor negotiations which are exacerbating delays. However, fully resolving the complex, multifaceted issue will take coordinated efforts across the supply chain.

This document summarizes the international supply chain and logistics network of Guinness, a global beer brand brewed in over 50 countries. It discusses how Guinness initially measured performance based on on-time dispatch but failed to account for delays in shipping. The company implemented a real-time business intelligence tool called SeeWhy to monitor performance across the entire supply chain and measure on-time arrival. This identified issues and allowed Guinness to improve on-time arrivals from barely 50% to around 80%. The new metrics and visibility provided by SeeWhy helped Guinness optimize operations and identify more cost-effective shipping options.

This presentation discusses Creative Commons licenses and open access in the humanities and social sciences. It provides an overview of Creative Commons licenses, including the key aspects of attribution, integrity of work, use of third party content, and permitting commercial use. While Creative Commons licenses promote easier sharing and reuse, they require attribution of the original author and do not allow implying endorsement or unfavorable remixing of the work. The presentation concludes that Creative Commons licenses offer choice for authors and funders while enabling frictionless sharing when the attribution requirement is maintained.

Americas CEO Research Insights - Hanjin Shipping Bankruptcy (9 19 16) (2)Matthew Marshall
Hanjin Shipping Company, South Korea's largest shipping company, filed for receivership in South Korea on August 31st, 2016 due to massive debts and losses. This has stranded over 530,000 containers worth $14 billion in cargo around the world. Hanjin was an important link in global supply chains as the 7th largest carrier, and its bankruptcy has caused disruption and uncertainty for shippers and companies involved in moving goods internationally. The long term impact is unclear but higher shipping costs and supply chain issues are expected in the near future due to the instability caused by Hanjin's collapse.
Hanjin Shipping Company, South Korea's largest shipping company, filed for bankruptcy protection on August 31, 2016. This caused major disruptions in global supply chains as over 530,000 containers worth $14 billion were stranded. Hanjin was responsible for 8.4% of trans-Pacific trade to the US and its collapse will significantly impact global shippers. Retailers are especially concerned as stranded cargo could impact their ability to stock shelves for the upcoming holiday season. Resolving legal ownership of stranded cargo and equipment across multiple international jurisdictions will take a long time.

Eric Gerster, CFA, recently created a presentation warning that a shutdown of maritime ports on the West Coast was imminent due to contentious and rapidly deteriorating negotiations and relations between the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) and Pacific Maritime Association (PMA).
The document summarizes the outcome of a labor dispute between longshore workers and employers on the US West Coast that disrupted port operations from mid-2014 to early 2015. Key points:
- The labor contract expired in July 2014 and slowdowns reduced productivity through early 2015 until a new contract was ratified in May 2015.
- Los Angeles and Long Beach ports saw large declines in January-February 2015 volumes but have since recovered momentum.
- Some cargo was diverted to East Coast ports during peak disruptions but many shippers did not make long-term changes.
- While the West Coast lost some market share, the recovery is ongoing and ports are taking steps to improve competitiveness.

This document provides testimony opposing resolutions (HR 113, HCR 153, SR 45, SR 93) that would exempt Hawaii from the U.S. build requirement of the Jones Act for large ocean-going ships. It provides background on the Jones Act and examines a GAO report on the potential effects of exempting Puerto Rico from the Jones Act. While reform should be considered, a full exemption is not in Hawaii's best interest due to national security, homeland security, and support for the domestic shipping and maritime industries.
Fast facts on the panama expansion and how it affects the midwest real estate...Debi Myers
The document discusses opportunities for investment and development in transportation, warehousing, and related industries in the Midwestern United States. Key factors driving growth include the expansion of the Panama Canal increasing cargo volumes, existing multi-modal infrastructure like rail and waterways, and the rise of inland ports. Inland ports provide efficient transportation corridors between ocean ports and the Midwest, boosting demand for specialized facilities. Exports from the Midwest are also growing, including opportunities to ship goods back to Asia. Several Midwestern states have undertaken trade missions promoting increased exports.
This document provides a summary of trends in the North American seaport industry according to a 2019 JLL Research report. It identifies 5 key trends: 1) ports adapting infrastructure to accommodate larger ships with higher TEU capacities, 2) the logistics sector exploring alternatives like rail-served inland ports to address long-haul trucker shortages, 3) uncertainty around trade agreements and their potential impact on the US trade deficit and export volumes, 4) actions ocean carriers may take in response to the 2020 regulation change requiring lower sulfur fuels, and 5) how short-sea shipping can help create a more efficient supply chain as larger vessels cause operational issues at major ports.
April 16, 2021 Transportation & Supply Chain Market Update ReportSchneider
The transportation market update provides the latest insights into market conditions from Schneider. It notes tight capacity due to high import volumes and demand, with outbound tender volumes up significantly compared to previous years. Driver shortages remain an issue, while the upcoming CVSA Roadcheck and Canada's new ELD rules may further impact capacity. Covid cases are rising slightly but vaccinations are increasing, though restrictions are still in place in many areas.
The federal judge refused to alter bankruptcy protections for Hanjin Shipping that were put in place by the bankruptcy court. The judge agreed that creditors should file claims in the Korean bankruptcy proceedings by October 25. Hanjin reported paying cash to unload containers at US ports and will issue amended bills of lading with charges only up to containers reaching yards. However, cargo owners face price gouging and delays getting cargo released. The situation remains complex with ongoing uncertainty around cargo and vessel movements.
Going the Extra Mile_Global Trade MagazineErik Malin
3PL providers are increasingly relying on technology and data to meet rising regulatory demands and handle a greater variety of products. This requires faster processing of more data earlier in shipments. Regulations for hazardous materials have increased. Providers must understand rapidly changing rules globally and have systems to share required documents and data with authorities. Advanced data sharing and analytics help plan shipments and find optimal carriers. The industry is transitioning from paper-based to technology-driven operations.
- Industrial occupancy is healthy on both US coasts, with West Coast occupancy up 2.2% since 2007 and Gulf/East Coast occupancy up 4.4% over the same period.
- While West Coast ports have lost some market share in TEU volume to East Coast ports, this has not significantly impacted industrial occupancy on the West Coast.
- Ports located near large population centers like New York/New Jersey, Los Angeles, and Miami tend to command higher rents for quality industrial space near the ports compared to broader market rents, due to demand for access to their large consumer bases.
- As the expanded Panama Canal opens in 2016, ports on the East Coast like Savannah, Charleston, and Virginia

ports to avoid disruption that could emerge
from contract negotiations between the
International Longshore and Warehouse
Union and West Coast employers.
Negotiations began on May 12 to replace the
current six-year contract, which expires at
5:00 PM on July 1. The risk of a strike,
lockout or other form of disruption is greatest
during times of waterfront contract
negotiations, and thus these are the times
when cargo interests take precautionary
action to avoid ports that might be affected.
They did the same thing two years ago
during contentious East and Gulf coast
negotiations between employers and the
International Longshoremen’s Association.
Fully 66 percent of 221 shippers that
responded to the survey, conducted from
May 12-14, will divert at least some of their
cargo through non-West Coast ports. Of
those that are diverting, 73 percent will ship
through East or Gulf Coast ports, 25 percent
will ship through Canadian ports and 2
percent through Mexico.
Of those shippers that plan to use other
ports, 29 percent said they will divert less
than 10 percent of their total cargo volume, 31 percent will divert 10 to 25 percent and 40
percent will divert more than 25 percent of their volume.
For many shippers, the locations of their distribution centers in the U.S., or related logistics

2. factors, make it difficult to divert. Some 42 percent said they have no viable alternatives to
West Coast ports, while 25 percent said it is too costly and 8 percent said it is too late now
to divert.
If comments filed anonymously by respondents are an indication as to how shippers are
planning their supply chains to avoid the negotiations, it appears that ports will be busier
than usual next month because many shippers are moving goods earlier.
A number of responses included comments such as “pulling orders forward early into
June,” “asking customers to carry more inventory” or “ordered heavy to have goods arrive
early.”
Respondents who are diverting cargo indicated they learned a difficult lesson from the 10-
day employer lockout during the 2002 negotiations so they made plans early this time to
divert cargo. However, some importers said their supply-chain logistics dictate against
diversion.
There is evidence that diversions at least to the U.S. East Coast are already under way.
Carriers report all-water services to the U.S. East Coast are sailing at close to capacity.
Spot rates from Shanghai to the U.S. East Coast are up 5.2 percent versus a year ago,
while rates from Shanghai to the U.S. West Coast are down 4.5 percent, according to the
latest Shanghai Containerized Freight Index data.
“To divert major volumes would be futile and way too costly,” one respondent said.
A number of respondents referred to predictions by experts at the JOC’s TPM conference
in March in Long Beach that a contract will be reached this summer without a work
stoppage.
In a joint statement when negotiations began on May 12, the ILWU and PMA said they
both “expect cargo to keep moving until an agreement is reached.”
On the other hand, shippers do not anticipate that the contract negotiations will be driven
by what is best for cargo interests. Asked in the survey whether their needs are being
adequately addressed in the negotiations, 81 percent said, “No.”
