Indian Ports Association (IPA) was constituted in 1966 with the idea of fostering growth and development of all Major Ports which are under the supervisory control of Ministry of Shipping.
IPA has selected Tech Mahindra as a managed service provider for five major ports at Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Deendayal Port and Paradip Port Trust. The initiative is expected to support smooth business operations through digital transformation and build an advanced port infrastructure in India. It also aims to integrate the country’s maritime sector, as well as further accelerate the growth and development of major public sector ports throughout the country.
IPA has also selected global consultancy services provider Ernst Young to assist in conceptualizing the Port-EBS and support the implementation of the system.
IPA has also launched the Port Community System ‘PCS1x’, a cloud based new generation technology, with user-friendly interface. The platform offers value added services such as notification engine, workflow, mobile application, better security features, and improved inclusion by offering dashboard for those with no IT capability.
