Logistics and Supply Chain MultiTech R&D Centre (LSCM) took part in the kick-off ceremony of Port Community System (PCS) organised by the Transport and Logistics Bureau earlier.

The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) has been actively promoting the development of the PCS to foster the digitalisation within Hong Kong's port community, enhance cross-sector information interconnectivity, and advance smart port development to consolidate and enhance the competitiveness of the maritime, port, logistics and trade industries.

The PCS's pilot data-sharing platform began phased testing of specific cargo clearance processes in early 2023, and incorporated feedback from industry stakeholders continuously.
