UMongameli we-ILA uHarU-D omdalaU-Aggett uxwayise wonke amaqembu ukuthi amalungu enyunyana azongena esitelekeni uma kungafinyelelwa esivumelwaneni ngaphambi kokuba inkontileka iphelelwe yisikhathi.

UDaggett udlulisele lo myalezo ezikhungweni ezinkulu zezohwebo ezihlanganisa iNew Jersey, iNew York, neHouston, futhi ucele abasebenzi abafanele ukuthi balungiselele isiteleka ngomhlaka-1 Okthoba.

I-ILA, emele abasebenzi basezikhumulweni zemikhumbi ababalelwa ku-70,000 oGwini Olusempumalanga ye-US, iyaqhubeka nokugxeka kakhulu iMaersk kanye nabanye abaqhubi bezitsha kanye nabasebenzi besikhumulo semikhumbi mayelana nezingxoxo zesivumelwano esisha seminyaka emihlanu sabasebenzi basezikhumulweni zemikhumbi esizoqala ngo-Okthoba.

I-ILA isanda kukhansela izingxoxo ne-USMX ngenxa ye-APM Terminals, inkampani yechweba engaphansi kweMaersk, esebenzisa uhlelo lwe-IT lwe-"Auto Gate" lokubhalisa amaloli ePort of Mobile e-Alabama.

Uma izingxoxo ziqala kabusha, inyunyana kulindeleke ukuthi ifune amaholo nezinye izinzuzo zamalungu e-ILA ukuze zibe nkulu njengenzuzo yezinkampani ezingamalungu e-USMX. Inyunyana ibukeze ngokucophelela izitatimende zezimali zika-2022 zeMaersk, MSC, COSCO, CMA CGM, Hapag-Lloyd, kanye ne-Evergreen.

UDaggett uthe, "Izinkampani ezifana neMaersk, ngenkathi zithola izigidigidi zemali engenayo, zihlala zizama ukunciphisa imisebenzi ye-ILA ngokwethula okuzenzakalelayo," "Zizoba nokuvuka okungekuhle. Lesi yisikhathi sethu, futhi i-ILA izofuna ukwenyuswa okukhulu kwamaholo kubasebenzi bethu basezikhungweni."

UMaersk uzwakalise ukudumala "ngosongo lwesiteleka"

UMaersk uthe iqembu lezokuthutha libheka ukukhanselwa kwezingxoxo njengesu lokuxoxisana kuphela. I-APM Terminals ithe, "Sidumele ngokuthi i-ILA ikhethe ukwazisa izingxenye zezingxoxo eziqhubekayo ukuze idale amandla engeziwe kwezinye izidingo zayo."

Usongo lwesiteleka emachwebeni ase-US East Coast lufika ngesikhathi esinzima, njengoba uchungechunge lokunikezela lubhekene nezingcindezi ezintsha.

Ukukhathazeka ukuthi noma yikuphi ukwehla komnotho noma ukumiswa komsebenzi kungathinta ukungeniswa kwezimpahla ezibiza izigidigidi zamaRandi, kusukela ekudleni nasemithini kuya efenisha kanye nemishini yasefektri.
