Predictive ETAs for Smarter Barge Planning
Operational variability is constant in inland and barge logistics. ETA planning should reflect that reality.
Upcoming Webinar
We are excited to announce an extended session of From Static ETAs to Predictive Planning — a deeper look at how real-time arrival prediction is helping inland operators reduce idle time, improve asset utilization, and deliver more reliable windows for cargo owners.
We’ll be revisiting how ETAPredictor works in practice, sharing results from a live deployment with a leading US barge operator, and opening the floor for Q&A.
Date: Thursday, March 19th
Time: 1:00pm CDT / 2:00pm EDT / 19:00 CET
ETAPredictor is PortXchange’s AI-powered solution designed to continuously recalculate ETAs using vessel-level and network-wide data. Instead of relying on fixed schedules, operators gain dynamic, data-driven forecasts that adjust as conditions change.
What ETAPredictor enables:
Continuous ETA recalculation based on real-world conditions
Reduced variance across multi-stop barge rotations
API-based integration into existing planning systems
Scalable deployment across fleets and networks
Significant improvements in ETA accuracy and asset utilization
