The collaboration led to the establishment of the Port Service Support Portal (PSSP) housed by the NSC and the Project Steering Committee (PSC). The efforts of the PSC have resulted in the publication of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for Ports Agencies and recently publication of the Nigerian Port Process Manual (NPPM). Both documents have far reaching implications for operations in Nigerian Ports and Terminals. Overall, from 2011 to 2021, a total of 1130 incidents have been reported by Ship captains calling on Nigerian ports. The implication of this is that transactions for Ship Captains using Nigerian Ports has become more transparent, predictable, and consistent.
