STAGE 04 · TURNAROUND
Stabilise, recover, decide
MARKET CHALLENGE
Lines or cargo are leaving. Disputes with forwarders, hauliers or the port authority are escalating after a tariff or ownership change, and the terminal is burning cash.
HOW FALCON PORTS HELPS
- ✓On-site diagnostic: working with billing, customer service and operations to find why cargo is leaving.
- ✓Customer and stakeholder reset: rebuilding trust with lines, forwarders and the authority.
- ✓Tariff reset: a clear, defensible tariff the market can accept.
- ✓Board options: a focused recovery plan, or clear alternatives if recovery doesn't stack up.
YOU GET
The root causes, fast, and a plan the board can act on.
TYPICAL FIRST STEP
An on-site diagnostic: root causes and immediate stabilising actions, delivered quickly.
FOUNDER EXPERIENCE
Multipurpose terminal, Eastern Mediterranean
Supported the commercial transition after privatisation: negotiations with shipping agents, forwarders and government, and the launch of a new, transparent tariff.
HOW WE WORK
Practical help, not another report
Long engagements, large invoices and a slide deck nobody uses help no one. Every Falcon Ports engagement is built to deliver something you can use.
Step 1
Diagnostic
Start small. A fixed-scope, fixed-fee first step: where the revenue is, where it's leaking, and what it would take to grow. If it isn't useful, you stop there.
Step 2
Hands-on delivery
Doing, not just advising. Targets agreed up front: services won, revenue recovered, tariff live. Then working alongside your team, meeting carriers and customers, building the pitch and writing the tariff.
Step 3
Handover
No dependency. Your team owns the tools, the tariff and the customer relationships. Falcon Ports steps back once the work is embedded.
