topics
5. Container Inventory Management
• However, equality in number of containers
is not sufficient
• Right type and ‘right size’ of containers
• Containers at Right place at the right time
• Right quality of containers in the right
quantity
A balanced
inventory means,
Exporters’
demand = Laden
containers
imported
6. Collaboration among carriers and container
interchange
Multiple carriers pool themselves and ,
1. Share the information of present
and future empty container stocks
2. Offer the excess containers to those
who are deficit
3. Borrow containers from others who
are excess when in shortage

7. Is this feasible?
• Slots and containers are complementary service components in
shipping
• If the “slots” can be shared between alliance partners why not
“containers” ?
• Slots-Intangible >> tangible
• Containers < tangible>
• Will carriers be interested……….

1. Interchange is feasible
2. But some features of containers will have
barriers
11. Approach to the Solution
• Awareness in the shipping community about VCP
• Regulate the Container Inventory Management (CIM)
• Introduce tools and change the container controllers’ psychology
(reactive>>>proactive)
• Propose local authorities to measure CIM competence of carriers
• Propose international forums to link CIM competence with country
index (LPI, GCI, Doing business)

16. Conclusions
• Container Inventory Imbalance could be minimized through
collaboration among carriers.
• The collaboration comes into effect in the form of exchanging
containers between carriers.
• The case study suggests the container interchange is realistic.
• The ‘Container Interchange Matrix’ (6 R model) is an effective tool in
container interchange process.
