DACHSER obtains TISAX® information security label

The logistics provider meets the automotive industry’s stringent IT security requirements

Following intensive preparation, DACHSER has obtained TISAX® Level 2 certification. This internationally recognized standard for information security and data protection in the automotive industry is becoming increasingly important in protecting automotive supply chains against cyberattacks. TISAX stands for Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange.

DACHSER has held ISO 27001 certification for more than a decade and has repeatedly demonstrated conformity with Section 8a of Germany’s Federal Office for Information Security Act (BSIG) regarding critical infrastructure as defined by the BSI-KritisV regulation. “Success in the TISAX assessment is yet further confirmation that DACHSER provides a high level of information security,” explains Stefan Hohm, Chief Development Officer at DACHSER, who has direct responsibility for IT security. “Our customers have exacting requirements when it comes to security, reliability, and quality. Information security is therefore an essential component of the services we provide.

The assessment included certification of DACHSER’s Corporate IT, which manages IT services for all branches and country organizations worldwide from the Head Office in Kempten, Germany. The focus was on the security of the company-run data centers, which are the centerpiece of the Group’s IT. The assessment was completed without any complaints or objections from the assigned auditor.
 

Christian von Rützen, Department Head IT Security at DACHSER, says: “DACHSER regards the security of customer data as a key mark of quality. That’s why we make it a top priority. We collaborated closely with our automotive customers to ensure we met the exacting criteria required to obtain the TISAX label.”

“The successful TISAX assessment is proof that the exchange of information between our customers and DACHSER’s IT systems meets the automotive industry’s stringent security requirements,” says Stefan Dahnken, Department Head DACHSER Automotive Logistics. “This is an important step in the further digitalization of the information flow along our customers’ supply chains.”

Latest update on DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics operations

With this update DACHSER would like to inform about the current DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics operations across the regions APAC, EMEA and Americas. In the attached document (see download below) it is listed whether a country organization of DACHSER is operational or, if only limited or not at all, why this is the case. Since the situation in the countries may change rapidly, the attached document will be updated on a regular basis and published on our website.

We sincerely regret any inconveniences caused to our customers due to the pandemic. At DACHSER, we have contingency measures in place and will offer our customers the best alternative solutions to keep the supply chain running. Anyhow, the situation at ports, airports or customs authorities might cause delays. Furthermore, the capacity situation on the global airfreight market is very tense as there are basically no passenger flights operating at the moment.

At the same time, DACHSER has installed strict hygiene measures (e.g. home office) to ensure a safe working environment and to do our part in stopping the spread of the virus. DACHSER is trying to keep the impact of these measures as low as possible, however, together with the official measures by the governments, the precautions may lead to some delays in the operations.

In case of any questions and/or queries, please feel free to contact your local DACHSER representative.

Sea freight: update on the global situation

Due to the ongoing disruption of the sea freight market, the after-effects (container shortages and frequent port congestion) continue to impact global supply chains. Below, we provide an update on all developments to minimize potential disruptions to your business.

US West Coast / San Pedro Bay / Port of Los Angeles

  • The situation in the US has improved over the last 6 weeks, but there are still several container ships queuing in San Pedro Bay to enter the port to be unloaded.
  • The impact can still be seen in the sea freight inland logistics chain. The constant and high volume of loaded containers flowing into the U.S. continues to make it difficult to relieve the existing backlog.

Suez Canal

  • Although this incident occurred more than 10 weeks ago, sea freight traffic is still out of balance due to the so-called "ripple effects."
  • After the unblocking of the Suez Canal, European ports were first congested due to the sudden and high inbound volume. This was followed by the Asian ports, especially the Chinese ports.

Ports of Hamburg and Bremerhaven / Rotterdam

  • Due to the blockade of the Suez Canal and the aforementioned "ripple effects", operations at the ports of Hamburg and Bremerhaven were also out of balance.
  • Due to this congestion, shipping companies were induced to re-route ships to Wil-helmshaven or to Rotterdam.
  • Within the Rotterdam operation, delays are now also expected, possibly leading to disruptions in port operations.

Ports of Yantian / Shekou / Nansha

  • Delays are occurring in the South China region (Yantian / Shekou / Nansha, etc.) due to restricted port operations. It is expected that the resumption of regular operations will have to be done gradually and that full capacity cannot be reached in the foreseeable future.

We are in close contact with carriers and service providers on a daily basis and do our best to make your supply chain as smooth as possible. For individual advice, please contact your local representative of DACHSER so that we can implement the best logistics solution for you.
