A team of experts from Balosh Integrated Services, led by Senior Operations Manager Serah Ogundele, has successfully delivered an electronic truck call-up system to the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA).
The system, which manages truck movement to and from the Lagos Ports Complex and the Tin Can Island Ports, is expected to reduce port congestion and improve supply chain efficiency.
Ogundele, who played a crucial role in the project, noted that the system has already reduced port congestion by 60%.
TRIBUNE ONLINE takes a look at this woman in the midst of the all-male team of professionals working on the e-call-up system for NPA, and here is what Ogundele said: “Transforming challenges into opportunities, I led the implementation of the Nigerian Port Authority’s ETO system, reducing port congestion by 60% and driving supply chain efficiency. I tell you, the value of what we have established here is what contemporary innovation and its impact, which define true progress”
“True progress is built through teamwork and tenacity. Leading the Nigerian Port Authority’s ETO project was more than a task, it was a journey of collaboration and resilience. Working hand-in-hand with software and hardware engineers, overcoming complexities, and tackling challenges head-on. We delivered a transformative solution that redefined efficiency and reduced port congestion,” Ogundele added.
With over 15 years of experience in business management and operations, Ogundele is known for driving change and achieving operational efficiency.
She is known for driving change with a proven track record of achieving a 35% increase in the operational efficiency of Balosh through process optimisation initiatives.
As Project Manager for the Nigerian Port Authority (NPA) Electronics Truck Call-Up System (ETO), Ogundele led a groundbreaking project that resolved severe truck congestion at the Lagos Ports Complex and Tin Can Island Ports. As the technical partner, her employer Balosh Integrated Services installed all access control hardware, ensuring only authorised trucks entered the ports via the ETO app.
On the feat of the project, Balosh MD Roy Oshinbolu said; “We are very proud to be selected as the sole access control provider to the ports, holding bays and truck parks. We successfully completed over 100 installations within four months and look forward to supporting and growing this initiative in this very challenging environment”.
The success of the project, TRIBUNE ONLINE gathered, has gained significant attention for its nationwide impact on port logistics and traffic management.
