Stowage Planner

Hapag-Lloyd

Develop stowage plans ensuring compliance with vessel safety and cargo requirements.

Optimize vessel operations during port stay by maximizing crane intensity and reducing idle time.

Monitor vessel capacity in coordination with Network Execution and Cargo Control.

Address queries from internal stakeholders and provide technical input on stowage operations.

Execute Change of Destination (COD) requests, assessing cost, additional moves, and operational impacts.

Ensure hazardous cargo stowage complies with IMDG code and internal safety standards.

Validate and confirm feasibility of stowage for special cargo (OOG, breakbulk), highlighting lost slots if applicable.

Compare booking status vs. forecast and validate against vessel capacity.

Manage allocation control (Hapag vs. partners), ensuring balance with product management.

Provide calculations on vessel stability, trim, shear forces, torsion, bending moment, draft, and air draft (ensuring seaworthiness).

Circulate BAPLIE files and ensure accurate distribution to relevant stakeholders.

Maintain clear and professional communication across stakeholders and terminals.

Liaise closely with terminals before and during operations to ensure stowage plan execution.
