Consignments are usually delivered
within five days. There are two Sea-
Air facilities available. The first, Short
Sea-Air, uses Damco’s unique hub
solution in Malaysia. Here, the seaport-
to-airport transit time is seven to ten
days.
The second Sea-Air transportation
solution is Long Sea-Air, which uses
the company’s hub in Dubai. Here the
seaport-to-airport transit time is 18-25
days. The fastest option is Air Charter.
Damco arranges an aircraft through
its network of international charter
brokers to find the most economical
and appropriate means to transport a
client’s consignment.
Visibility Management

has are its strength in information
management systems and automation
of processes. These effectively manage
daily operations, minimise errors and
delaysandprovide real-time information
to clients.
The company’s visibility solution is
a single, web-based access point
that provides end-to-end supply
chain information. It includes order
management, inventory management,
reporting/business intelligence and
integration of data from multiple
partners in the supply chain.
