2. Agenda Introduction Supply Chain Trends Synchromodality European Gateway Services COMCIS-project

3. 1. Introduction • Europe Container Terminals (ECT) founded in 1966 • 3 deep sea terminals in the Port of Rotterdam • 2.200 employees (2012) • Volume in 2012: 7,7 million TEU • Member of Hutchison Port Holdings (HPH)

4. 1. Introduction

5. 1. Introduction • Rotterdam • 10.500 ha • 40 km length • 11 million TEU

6. 1. Introduction Euromax Terminal City Terminal Delta Terminal

7. 1. Introduction Hamburg – Le Havre range Highly competitive market with 1 hinterland

8. 1. Introduction • mln TEU 2012 • Rotterdam 11.848 30% • ECT 7.702 19% • Hamburg 8.89022% • Antwerp8.630 22% • Bremen/Bremerhaven 6.100 15% • Le Havre 2.3106% • Zeebrugge1.960 5% • Total 39.738

9. 1. Introduction Direct hinterland Rotterdam

11. 2. Supply Chain Trends • Port Developments • Growing call-sizes due to Ultra Large Container Ships • Modal split obligations by Port Authorities • Low utilization of European transport systems (road, waterways and railways) • European transport system (infrastructure) reachedits maximum • Competition between ports: overcapacity HLH-range expected • Increasing competition within Rotterdam: Maasvlakte 2 • Supply Chain Trends • Increasing importance of performance requirements • Awareness of environment (CO2) and carbon footprint • More focus on security (a.o. ISPS, AEO)

12. 3. Synchromodality

13. 3. Synchromodality Synchromodality: making optimal use of all modes of transport and available capacity, at all times, as an integrated transport solution. Key aspects: • Mode free booking • Dynamic planning and routing • Switching modes of transport in real time • Information availability and visibility • Decision making based on network utilization • Combining transport flows • Cooperation

14. 4. European Gateway Services • ECT develops a network of inland terminals (ECT Extended Gate®) and bundles • containers on the main corridors from/to its deep sea terminals • Daily and dedicated barge and rail connections by EGS and partners • Scheduled, planned, operated on both sides of the inland supply chain • Developing additional services to support the supply chain

15. 4. European Gateway Services

16. 4. European Gateway Services Building blocks Emission Supports reduction of CO2 emission Visibility Track & trace as part of EGS web services Security Integrated secure lane (ISPS level) Customs Document free chain (paperless) Logistics Scheduling, planning, transport

17. 5. COMCIS topics Carrier release + customs release + physical availability  hinterland • Postponing the commercial release to a hinterland gate • ‘Pushing containers to the hinterland’ using EGS • Improvedprediction of physical container availability after discharge, allowingforimproved hinterland planning. • More awareness of the hinterland transport links. • Combining container data, EGS-booking data and hinterland transport data. Paperless service (customs) Extended Line Release Discharge Predictor Synchromodal Dashboard

18. Oneintegrated dashboard, withconsolidated data, ready foroperationaluseto manage sea-hinterland operations 5. COMCIS Data Consolidation Build on top of results of Integrity: aggregate data of terminals, carriers, customs, hinterland operations. Data Standardization Standardize data across ECT and EGS: onebooking, one status, one container release, etc. Data Aggregation

19. 5. COMCIS: Results • Extended Line Release • Carrier release + customs release + physical availability  hinterland • Development of company-wide release management as part of IT-architecture • Tried & tested; further roll-out beyond COMCIS • Interest confirmed by carriers for carrier-haulage containers: Improvement possible for 46% of containers or 12% if paperless customs service is used) • Significant reduction in time spent at the terminal • -33% for all containers -74% when combined with paperless customs service • Attractiveness of Rotterdam as Gateway to Europe confirmed using statistical analysis (TNO World Container Model™) • +2,5% increase in volume over competitors • Further legal and commercial agreements required • High-impact on IT and operations

20. 5. COMCIS: Results • Discharge predictor • Carrier release + customs release + physical availability hinterland • Reduction in lead time of up to 42 hours • Data aggregation: load plans, crane planning, carrier ETA • Tried & tested; further roll-out beyond COMCIS • 95%+ accurate predictions • 97% accuracy in operations (no removal from load-list) • Reduction in administrative effort by operators/planners confirmed • Currently being rolled-out as part of the ECT/EGS IT-architecture • Used internally; future option: external use in e-services

21. 5. COMCIS: Results • Synchromodal dashboard • Carrier release + customs release + physical availability  hinterland • The synchromodal dashboard consolidates data on carrier release, customs release, availabilityand planned hinterland transport. • Used as an operational tool by European Gateway Services. • Currently being implemented and evaluated • Concept matches ECT expectations

22. 5. Summary • European Gateway Services as a strategic development within ECT • COMCIS provides enhanced visibility to ‘push’ containers to the hinterland • Extended Line Release  take away the commercial release barrier • Discharge Predictor  physical availability • Synchromodal Dashboard  linking terminal and hinterland operations • Concepts proven within COMCIS; further commercial roll-out already started
