The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has expanded its consultancy portfolio by entering the port sector through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Deendayal Port Authority (DPA), Umeandus Technology Private Limited, and BEML Limited for developing a Real Time Automated Cargo Evacuation System (e-FTS) at Kandla, Gujarat. The pilot project aims to revolutionize cargo handling through automation and smart technologies such as blockchain, AI, machine learning, and IoT, enhancing efficiency, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness. As part of the MoU, DMRC will undertake the project’s operations and maintenance for 25 years, with detailed roles to be finalized in a forthcoming Definitive Agreement. The system also holds potential for adaptation at other ports and logistics hubs across the country.
