Portside Analytics

A port-scheduling MVP for a New Zealand maritime logistics startup, built to prove value with a single port operator before scaling.

MVP Development

The challenge

Portside's founders, both former port operations staff, had strong domain knowledge but needed a working product to secure a paid pilot with their first port client.

Our approach

  1. 01

    Scoped the MVP around a single high-friction workflow: matching vessel arrival windows against berth availability

  2. 02

    Built the scheduling logic as a standalone module so it could later plug into whichever port-management system a client already used

  3. 03

    Delivered a working pilot environment configured specifically for the target port's berth layout, not a generic demo
