The processes involved in shipping goods to and from different places of the world requires intensive planning and constant monitoring. As much as possible, goods must be kept undamaged and equipments must always be in good working condition. In liner shipping, parties like depots, surveyors and operators must ensure that container maintenance and repair management must be conducted efficiently and effectively.
There is no way of telling when containers will need fixing. Equipments can fail before, during or after travel. For this reason, a good Container M&R (Maintenance and Repair) software should be in place in the event that containers get damaged.
