Autonomous Port of Papeete (PAP)

Objective achieved thanks to MGI

In May 2019, the Autonomous Port of Papeete took a decisive step by deploying the Ci5 Port Community System, developed by MGI. The goal: to digitalize port processes for improved fluidity, traceability, and security.

In a context where 90% of flows are related to imports, this project unified all stakeholders around a single solution, replacing paper processes and modernizing logistics exchanges in French Polynesia.
