Exploiting Maritime Intelligence in the Supply Chain Supply Chain and Cruise Services

Closed

The exploitation of shipping information to maximize the results of the Cruise in the Greek and Cypriot ports is the starting point of the project. In Greece and Cyprus, the contribution of the Cruise to local economies is comparatively limited. A common challenge and at the same time the objective of the project is to contribute significant towards the European average. The project will analyze the supply chain of the Cruise and develop a support platform for the conduct of e-marketplaces. The platform will offer the possibility of exchanging bids between cruise liners, local producers and suppliers, particularly for products that cruise liners are locally supplied, and will also provide interoperability with other IT systems. This approach is adopted for the first time in the Cruise sector and aims to combine the monitoring of the shipping side of cruise ship activity with local supply chains as well as the conditions of service in cruise ports by making use of information on the time available for servicing ship's supplies with positive consequences for the relevant environmental impacts. At the same time, through open platform information, it is possible to commercialize local products for passengers-visitors. The main challenge of the project is to strengthen the interoperability of port management systems by providing innovative management / support services and servicing of the cruise supply chains, supporting the needs of the various stakeholders, namely ports, producers / suppliers and cruise ships
