safe ports Safe Ports Our work is Logistics – but not everyday logistics. We support Emergency Responders and the Military inside war zones or inside active disaster sites, far from home. We have to succeed as Lives are literally depending on us getting the right material to the right place, no matter what.

Defense Logistics
Safe Ports :
Security Risks – those events which could cause a slow down or stop in the supply
Chain for us are caused by weather, terror or new laws which countries are not
prepared to adapt to quickly enough.
Some risks are impossible to plan for.
Others mean engaging with government officials and working together to overcome
challenges.
For example, when the roads between Pakistan and Afghanistan were closed to us by
the Taliban, we had to find another way and created an “air bridge”
When we can’t get landing rights for US aircraft into certain places in Africa, we look
for other carriers that can…

Humanitarian Logistics
Disaster Relief Logistics.
Safe Ports’ Geospatial Experts offer the ability to determine locations for successful
humanitarian operations and hub/spoke distribution locations to optimize response,
distribution time, costs, and numbers of distribution centers required.
Our supply chain is often impacted by “active shooters” or mudslides, or, no roads in
or out… for this reason we will fly over the area to work out a different way to keep
the supplies moving. Our geospatial team of analysts know how to target the
situation to ensure our safety and the safety of those assisting us.

Base Camps & Cold Food Storage
LOGISTICS FOR US INCLUDES PROVIDING LIFE SUPPORT:
The supply chain is far more than warehousing/distribution/transportation – it is Life
Support. Our Risk Assessments must include Sustainability.
Our base camp team assemble structures suitable for refugees and aid workers, to
include kitchens, laundry, lavatories, potable and waste water management systems,
and much more.
Our warehousing capabilities are designed with security precautions to protect against
a myriad of threats, including contamination; we provide all types of storage, from
cold food and pharmaceutical to storage of hazmat materials; we are experts at
inventory management, maintaining machinery, heavy equipment, and vehicles.
Risk One in a War Zone, Is Shelter! We had no Buildings, Only Shipping Containers And Air Beam Tents to support The war Fighters…
Risk 2:
incoming
rockets…
• The attacks frayed nerves at the sprawling
airfield. The heavy thud of one of the rockets
when it hit the ground before exploding could
be heard for kilometers. As sirens wailed, our
people took refuge in concrete bunkers until
the all-clear was sounded.
• Yes, me too.
Risk 3: No Intermodal Options no seaports, no rail-yards plenty of warlords w/guns

Iraq – this map shows the areas which are:
Controlled by the Iraqi Government

The reality is that competing geopolitical interests
Have kept this region on heightened alert for
Generations. Most recently we dealt with Piracy
Off the coasts of Yemen and Somalia,
Today we are concerned with strikes from Iran
Across the Straits of Hormuz which could impact
Iraq’s Port of Umm Quasar, Kuwait and of course
The major port in the region - Dubaisafe ports Safe Ports Al Mafraq Jordan

Port & Facilities Security Assessments
Since 2003, Safe Ports has been performing security analysis at seaports in Latin
America and the Middle East. Recently we evaluated and recommended various
types of Container Scanning Equipment for a Latin American Terminal Operator.
Safe Ports attended multiple workshops with suppliers, spent individual time with
each supplier, worked through the subsequent proposals and assisted in the final
technical discussions and technical evaluation of the bids.
We have decades of experience performing Security
Risk Assessments, Mitigation Planning, Procurement and Installation, and post
ISPS evaluations, worldwide.
Our concern always is to ensure the Port and its customers maintain
Competitive Advantages – while meeting all security requirementsNew threats to port

Accuracy…Transparency…Consistency
The Calculation of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in the logistics sector
is driven by a new standard developed over the last few years by the EUROPEAN COMMITTEE FOR
STANDARIZATION. “CEN” will drive carriers, forwarders, and logistics companies to calculate energy
Consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in compliance with the new standard, EN 16258
Energy is used and greenhouse gas emissions are created not only by transport but also by buildings,
Warehouses and handling.
Safe Ports is working on methodologies to correctly evaluate and report resultssafe ports
The Trends
As we saw when ISPS codes
were first introduced, we see
that more customers will
demand precise calculations of
carbon emissions when
shipping goods.
Today the EU and French
governments are focused
exclusively on transport – and in
2020 it will be required that
reductions of 20% will need to
be produced, to be in
compliance.safe ports
