Projects Details
Project Revive: Improvement in the dispute turntime from 69% to 95%. (2014)
Project Details
Since last 2 years Maersk line has not been able to keep the promise made in customer charter to resolve 95% disputes in 7
days to our customers. In 2014 target was even steeper to resolve all disputes within 5 days. With a lot of focus towards
streamlining the existing processes (both upstream & downstream) cross functional teams across geographies (GSC’s,
Clusters, Regions, Sales, CE, FNA, Operations etc.) supported by Project management office & Global Steering committee,
there were 7 solutions from the root causes identified to shorten the dispute resolution turn time.
As a core member of the execution team my responsibility was to ensure that the solutions are implemented on the floor and
have strict governance around the same and ensure all efforts are directed towards achieving the customer charter goals.
Project Result: The Customer Charter result ended the year at 94.83% which was highly appreciated by the Liner
management board and the customers.
Waivers Migration: Migration of waivers process from Finance to Disputes (2015)
Project Details
The detention waiver process was part of the finance team and was responsible for executing the waivers raised to them by the
dispute team. We realized that there were multiple handoffs in the process which was delaying the execution thereby impacting
the customer experience. The project committee decided to transfer the ownership from Finance to Disputes. Along with a
couple of colleagues we were assigned the task of global migration. Based on the Gemba and the feasibility study the process
was migrated to disputes without any impact to the process and customer experience.
Project Result: We have managed to reduce the waiting period by 2 working days enabling us to resolve the disputes for the
customer much faster.
