DCSA welcomes Smartflux as DCSA and first partner in the South America region

The Digital Container Shipping Association has announced that Smartflux S.A. has joined the DCSA+ partnership programme. Smartflux is a leading technology provider and the region’s first fully digital electronic delivery order platform. Through this partnership, Smartflux strengthens its alignment with global digital standards and supports the wider digitalisation of container logistics in Latin America.
Smartflux joins DCSA+ to ensure its EDO solution is interoperable by design and ready for seamless integration with global carriers. The partnership provides direct engagement with senior leaders across the container shipping value chain and gives Smartflux access to technical guidance, implementation support and early exposure to emerging standards.
Smartflux will focus first on aligning its APIs and data structures with DCSA standards, followed by interoperability testing with shared carrier customers. The company plans to use the partnership to reinforce its position as a trusted, integration-ready platform for digital cargo release.
Juan Carlos Jiménez, CCAO of Smartflux, said “Smartflux is leading the way as the region’s first fully digital EDO platform. Joining DCSA+ reinforces the strength of our solution and accelerates our mission to deliver faster, simpler and more connected container release experiences for shipping lines and their customers in Latin America.”
Matthew Taylor, CEO of Smartflux, added “Becoming part of DCSA underscores Smartflux’s commitment to building an integrated and efficient container shipping ecosystem. As the region’s leading digital cargo release solution, we value this partnership as an opportunity to decisively contribute to the adoption of world-class digital solutions in the container industry.” Mariana Bock-Losada, CGO of DCSA, welcomed Smartflux to the programme:
“Smartflux represents an important addition to DCSA+. Their leadership in digital EDO solutions aligns with our goal of enabling interoperable and efficient processes across the industry. We look forward to supporting their integration journey and working together to accelerate digital adoption in the region.”
DCSA+ is the partnership programme that brings together carriers, shippers, forwarders, feeders, terminals and technology providers to advance standardisation and interoperability across the container shipping ecosystem. The programme offers partners structured access to expertise, implementation support and opportunities to influence future standards.
