SWiM GDS is a UK-based company specializing in container shipping, bringing advanced technology and innovative digital solutions to take the industry into the 21st century.
—
SWiM GDS has officially launched the world’s first pre-pay B2B Digital Global Distribution System developed specifically for Global Container Shipping and the related Maritime Services Industry.
The company has finished its Stage 1 of development by introducing full Operational Planning, Container Booking, Secure Document & Data Exchange, and Transactional Relationships exclusively between Global Container Shipping Lines and Freight Forwarders.
The goal was to universally standardize and digitize complex operations and relationships for the very first time using a single Global Distribution System and platform.
Stage 2 is underway to accommodate similar Operational, Planning, Communication, Data Exchange and Transactional relationships existing between Container Shipping Lines and Worldwide Ports.
"Our Founders and Key Advisory team comprise a pool of highly skilled, talented professionals and entrepreneurs, each considered a specialist within their own industry and field of expertise," the company stated, adding:
"The broad ranging skill set brought by our Founders and Key Advisory team comes from decades of experience in Global Banking, Finance, Payments and Trade, IT Systems Architecture and Development, Global Shipping and Maritime Services, International Law, Compliance and Risk Management, Business Intelligence Analysis, Infrastructure Major Project delivery and more."
The SWiM GDS Team is set to find solutions to fix the big-ticket issues impacting Global Container Shipping.
“In doing so we have devised and are developing a number of interconnecting and complimentary IT system-based solutions that not only deliver enormous efficiency and facilitate uniform industry wide digitalization for the Global Container Shipping Industry, but have the capacity to remove up to circa $82 billion-dollar annual cost from the industry,” the team stated.
SWiM GDS is the world's first truly independent Pre-Pay B2B Global Distribution System specifically designed for the $1.3 trillion global container shipping and maritime services ecosystem.
Some of the system's advanced features include Over The Horizon Bookings for guaranteed bookings 12 months ahead, EDI Document Exchange, an Escrow Account, and 24/7 Connectivity.
SWiM Pay is another advanced technology in the mix, allowing users to use the company's proprietary payment service for maximum efficiency. SWiM Rewards are also part of the process, where all payments made through SWiM Pay qualify the customers to earn rewards point at the rate of $1 per point.
“We understand and have intimate knowledge of the present long standing outdated practices and inefficiencies which continue to cripple the Container Shipping Industry today,” the team stated, highlighting that their three points for tacking major issues are reducing the "no show" cargo bookings, cutting out the "futile empty container positioning" issues and "debt recovery costs" by guaranteeing full payment to the shipping line, on time, every time.
