Intermodal and Logistics
Seaport analyzes the various intermodal transportation systems that serve ports - road, rail, and air - and also conducts investigations for clients interested in complete intermodal transport solutions or in evaluating modal competition.
We consider various transport systems and alternatives in the course of our port traffic forecasts, strategic plans, and operations analyses. This gives Seaport the continuing ability to consider the entire logistics picture when helping to arrive at optimal solutions.
Our work includes:
Modal choice analysis
Mining and agricultural logistics
Cargo forecasting
Regional freight transportation studies
Due diligence studies
Port and marine terminal rail operations
Trans-border freight processes
Truck, rail, and intermodal rate analysis
Clients range from natural resource and agricultural companies seeking the most efficient way to move product to investors contemplating new plants, often in remote locations. Seaport also uses its skills to help the public sector in analysis and regional planning.
Typical projects include:
Tenke Fungurume Mine Logistics Study, Central and Southern Africa, 1997 - 1998
US Department of Agriculture, US-Mexico Trans-border Transportation Cost Analysis, 2005 - 2006
Intermodal and logistics projects are a specialty of Seaport Consultants, Inc. and William Hall.
