dwell

Supply chain visibility for the hours your cargo isn't moving.

The hours McLean watched are still on your balance sheet.

In 1937, Malcom McLean watched cargo idle on a New Jersey wharf and counted what every wasted hour cost. He invented a piece of hardware to fix it. Seventy years later, the box has won — and the math has moved.

The hours your shipments spend idle today don't show up at the wharf. They show up at terminals you've never visited, in handoffs between carriers, customs brokers, and 3PLs whose systems don't talk — in demurrage and detention, in expedite premiums, in inventory buffers larger than they should be, because no one can see what's late until it's already late.
