‘Waterproof packaging, route planning crucial to avoid damage & delays’

Rohit Chaturvedi, Partner, Transport and Logistics, Government, Infrastructure, Development sector Advisory Services, Forvis Mazars in India said, “Ensuring cargo safety during the monsoon season is critical to prevent damage and delays. Effective measures include using waterproof packaging, securing goods properly, and planning routes to avoid flood-prone areas. Regular maintenance of transportation vehicles and real-time weather monitoring can also help in navigating through adverse conditions. Furthermore, leveraging technology like humidity sensors for remote, real-time monitoring of cargo conditions enables proactive interventions. This is crucial for maintaining optimal humidity levels, particularly for sensitive cargo transported across different states.”
