International Logistics. Module 3. International Transport Systems. Difference between means and mode of transport. Types of cargo. Tipos de Carga. 1. General or dry cargo: it is the one that is present in solid, liquid or gaseous state, and that is properly packed or un packed at all, can be treated as a single unit. Dry cargo is transported in packages/bulks which shape, weight and dimensions conform to the characteristics of such, and its handling is carried out with basic equipment. Split or loose general cargo: It is the load that is handled in sacks, boxes, lumps, bales, parts, garter machinery, etc. 2. Refrigerated (reefer) cargo or cold chain: Uses normal handling, but requires special care such as temperature control and weather conditions. 3. Hazardous cargo or HazMat: It is subject to strict national and international regulations regarding its handling, packaging, labelling, storage and transport. 4. Special cargo: It is material that by its nature, particular characteristics, dimensions or weight, requires very special equipment for its transportation. Tipos de Carga. Mexican Port System. • Mexico has more than 11.000 kilometers of coastline, and is located in an excellent position in the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean which makes it a highly competitive country in the maritime sector. • Seaports carry out different types of operations: – – – – – Boarding, landing and transfer of passengers and crew. Shipment, disembarkation and transfer of cargo to and from a ship. Storage and warehousing of goods on land and stowage to and from ships. Provide internal access and intermodal connectivity. Complementary services to maritime carriers. Mexican port system. • The main functions of seaports are: – Guarantee the safety for the ships during the arrival, during the operation and when leaving the port. – Provide the necessary facilities and equipment for ships in the anchorage, arrival, loading and unloading, as well as embarking and disembarking passengers. – Provide transportation of goods, loading and unloading, warehousing and shipservicing at port. – Provide shelter, repair, maintenance of the necessary services to ships and other ships in emergency cases. • Provide other services to ships, people and cargo. – Container ports. Container port operations include four steps: • • • • Ship-to-dock: stage when load is discharged Transfer: Load is discharged to a temporary area Storage — the stage in which the containers are maintained for a longer period of time. Delivery and Receiving: It is the delivery movement (liberalization) of the freight. Or the reception at the terminal. Type of ports. • International (deep water) ports This category is assigned to sea port which is in a position to receive large-draught vessels, i.e. of large quantities of cargo, is characterized by shipping and receiving international vessels. In Mexico these ports are administered by private own companies. API, SSA-CARRIX, Contecon, Hutchinson Ports ICAVE-LCT-TIMSA-TILH-EIT, etc. • Cabotage ports In naval terms cabotage is the transport of cargo and passengers between ports of the same country, sailing relatively close to the coast • Dry port It is an intermodal terminal of goods located inside a country or economic region that connects, through the rail network or highway, with the seaport of origin or destination of the treated traffics. Intermodality is one of the characteristics of a dry port. It means combining different modes or modalities of forms of transport, in order to make the transport of goods more agile, flexible, reliable and efficient Sea Transport logistics. • Positive feutures. • • Negative features.

Mexican Airport System. • Airports are an important asset of the national logistic infrastructure, which makes it possible to trade by air cargo, which, while representing the most expensive means, also offers very high levels of service for transportation times Associated. • An airport is defined as a civil public service aerodrome that has the appropriate facilities and services for the reception and dispatch of aircraft, passengers, cargo and mail of the regular and non-regular air transport service, as well as the transport Private commercial and non-commercial. • All foreign trade goods entering the airport facilities are protected in warehouses and transfer areas, including within the supervised enclosures authorized by the internal Customs office and are subject to the recognition Customs for its dispatch, both in import and export. It is usual that the offices of the customs brokers and the cargo agents, as well as those of services related to the dispatch of the goods, are located within the aforementioned supervised precincts. Mexican Airport System. • The Mexican airport system consists of 85 airports and 1.385 civil aerodromes. From 1998, 34 were concessioned from the main Mexican airports to private groups, with the system of 85 installations being integrated, as follows: – – – – – • 12 assigned to the Pacific Airport Group (GAP). 13 to the North Central Airport Group (OMA) and 9 to the southeast Airport Group (ASUR). 24 are administered by ASA and, 27 in charge of the secretariats of national and marine defense, as well as of various state and municipal governments. The most important airports of the system are: – – – – – – AI CdMx Benito Juárez. + 400,000 tons of cargo per year. Miguel Hidalgo Gdl. + 130,000 tons of cargo per year.

Transporte Multimodal. • Intermodal corridors are the land routes of a country that have outstanding characteristics for the efficiency of logistic chains. Must include mainly: – Connectivity in road and/or railway infrastructure with ports. We are talking about a modern and efficient infrastructure. – Offer of services identified clearly as high quality in the autotransport and/or railways. – Presence of dry ports or intermodal terminals that facilitate the rail-road interface. – Simplified and uniform customs processes (at least on the way). Transporte Multimodal. Intermodal connections. – In general, that the various government bodies have incorporated as public policy the promotion of these transport alternatives contributing to their optimum performance. – Presence of logistic operators capable of integrating services. We refer to the operator's ability to generate a true added value in the integration of links in the logistic chain. – Here stand out the OTM, the cargo agents and all those who are in a strategic disposition to offer these services. – Perhaps the most important components to fully understand the development of the corridors are intermodal and communication technologies, as in practical terms have made the traditional geography elastic. – Logistic platforms. Transporte Multimodal. • A logistic platform is a specialized area that has the necessary infrastructure and services to facilitate the activities related to transport packaging and distribution, for national and/or international transit of goods where different Agents coordinate their actions to benefit the competitiveness of the products that make use of the infrastructure. • The logistic platforms can be managed by a single entity, public, private or mixed. • There are three types of logistic platforms. – Unimodal Distribution Centers – Logistic zones – Multimodal platforms. Logistic platforms. Transporte Multimodal. • Unimodal distribution centers. – They are infrastructures that act as warehouse and are mainly oriented to the management of the flow of goods towards the final customer and of the associated inventory, mainly oriented to the terrestrial transport by road. • The logistic zones: – They imply a greater degree of integration of operations through activities of consolidation, localization and re-routing of inventories. These logistical infrastructures include points of concentration of traffic and of load breakdown, connecting it with other points through a different mode of transport. This type of infrastructure incorporates at least two modes of transport, so it is possible to implement here some distribution strategies and cross docking. – Typically here are classified air cargo centers or areas of port logistics activities. Transporte Multimodal. Logistic platforms. • Multimodal platforms. – They are logistical nodes that connect different modes of transport in a transparent way for the user, where the emphasis of the process is in the services of value added to the load and not in the mode of transport used. – This type of infrastructure is also known as hub-type infrastructure, usually linked to the existence of a port to take advantage of economies of scale on international routes.
