S)ONE Port & Aiport Community System is a neutral digital collaboration platform that optimizes, automates and secures all processes involved in goods transit, linking together all public and private organizations in logistics, port and airport chains  to facilitate global trade.

S)ONE centralizes and automates administrative, logistic and commercial data flows linked to goods transit, regardless of the type and means of transport, during import, export and transshipment. Its scope can include:

• A terminal, port or airport, and the warehouses attached;
• A transport corridor of multiple ports, terminals or logistics platforms;
• A region or country and all points of entry, exit or transit of goods, including border posts, sea and river ports, airports, and logistics platforms in the hinterland.

S)ONE is an opportunity to switch from paper-based to 100% digital systems, and to automate all processes required for goods transit. For example, S)ONE digitizes and automates:

• Announcements and declarations: manifests, booking, bill of lading, stuffing, stripping, empty container management, etc.;
• Movements: entry, exit, loading, unloading, etc.;
• Authorizations from port authorities, government agencies, customs or private organizations;
• Permits: import or export licenses, specific permits, etc.;
• Tracking and tracing in real time with customizable notifications and journaling.

S)ONE is a universal system that can be interfaced with any information belonging to any type of organization of any size, using any data interchange format.

The implementation of a PCS is recognized as a highly structural project for economies, strengthening the competitiveness and reliability of ports, regions and countries. 

International organizations have, moreover, observed considerable improvements in the business climate and economic performance when a PCS is put in place, leading to a better position in the World Bank’s Doing Business and Logistics Performance Index rankings. These efficient digital tools increase attractiveness for foreign investment and foster the growth of foreign trade.
