Mobility launching new opportunities in shipping
Shipping Mobility Solutions
Faced with higher shipping costs and the need to accelerate time to market, the shipping industry looks to mobility to better meet changing business conditions.
With more than 90 percent of global trade carried by sea, the global economy is dependent on the international merchant fleet of bulk carriers and tankers to keep vital bulk commodities moving swiftly, safely, and efficiently. As a shipping company, you must operate across vast expanses of ocean and must rely on the timely coordination of information – both in port and at sea.
Getting Greater Visibility into Shipping Data
Your industry faces many significant challenges. Fuel costs alone comprise the largest cost element for virtually every shipping company today. You also need to leverage new technologies so you can better comply with new regulations, and gain greater visibility into your ship’s routing, as well as freight-rate volatility and shipping logistics.
Just as important, you face challenges getting real-time access to information on other vessels, weather, and load and discharge ports.
Enhancing Communications with Home
As your crews are being asked to work on increasingly complex equipment on ships, your ships may face challenges in areas such as engine monitoring, remote maintenance, automating processes, satellite delivery of electronic charts, and more. Mobile solutions can address these challenges. And with the ubiquity of anytime, anywhere access to information, your crew may also want better connectivity with home — from access to social media to news, entertainment, and more. In fact, there’s an exploding demand for broadband connectivity at sea accessed via mobile devices and apps.

End-to-End Security
Mobility offerings put more information in the hands of more people. This also means more information is accessed over possibly untrusted networks. Your IT team must mitigate the impact of a security breach or incident and deal with the growing adoption of unsecure consumer cloud services that facilitate ‘shadow IT’ among your shipping organization, other ports, warehouses, and logistics partners. Globo solutions can secure apps, devices, and data, and even offer FIPS 140-2 certification for these.

Mobile Application Management
Your crew is demanding secure access to logistics and warehouse resources on their mobile devices using a wide variety of public and custom-built mobile apps.

Mobile Device Management
When your crew gains access to corporate resources from mobile devices to boost their productivity, they are introducing significant security and compliance risks as well as end-user privacy concerns that need to be addressed. Your IT team needs security, control and compliance over these mobile devices, applications, and data. They also require real-time, over-the-air visibility and control over a diverse fleet of mobile devices regardless of operating system, device ownership, carrier, or email platform. Globo offers a robust solution for Mobile Device Management (MDM) to address all these challenges.
