CAS Broker has emerged as a trailblazer in Ghana’s logistics and port operations, introducing groundbreaking digital innovations that are transforming how cargo moves across the nation’s ports, terminals, and inland trade corridors. With a vision to digitise Africa’s supply chain, CAS Broker is setting new standards for efficiency, transparency, and growth.
Success Story: The JAPTU Project
One of CAS Broker’s most notable achievements is its collaboration with the Joint Association of Port Transport Unions (JAPTU). Through the Driver and Vehicle Management System (DVMS) powered by NFC card technology, CAS Broker successfully registered and certified over 8,700 drivers and 8,100 trucks in compliance with ACVL standards.
This system has:
Improved accountability and security at Ghana’s major ports.
Reduced fraud, double registration, and revenue leakages.
Created a unified platform for JAPTU’s toll management and Transport Loading Advice (TLA) processes.
The JAPTU project not only strengthened trust between truckers and port authorities but also demonstrated how Ghana can digitise fragmented transport unions for national economic benefit.
Technology Modules for Port & Terminal Operations
Beyond JAPTU, CAS Broker has developed a suite of integrated technology modules designed for port terminals, shipping lines, and logistics companies:
CAS TMS (Transport Management System): Automates truck scheduling, dispatching, and driver performance metrics.
CAS Loadboard: Matches cargo with available trucks in real time, reducing idle time and increasing utilisation.
CAS Fleet Management: Monitors vehicle performance, GPS tracking, and fuel efficiency.
CAS ICD Movement Solution: Digitises container transfers between terminals, ensuring prompt payments through invoice factoring.
CAS Toll & Entry/Exit Gate Systems: Integrated with boom barriers and OCR systems for seamless gate control.
CAS Fuel Management: Tracks consumption, prevents siphoning, and links directly with OMC partners.
CAS CRM: Enhances client engagement and automates sales pipelines for freight forwarders.
CAS Compliance Dashboards: Provide government agencies and customs with real-time insights into cargo and driver activities.
These modules work seamlessly together, giving port stakeholders a unified view of operations and helping reduce congestion, fraud, and inefficiencies.
AI-Powered Innovations
At the heart of CAS Broker’s solutions is Artificial Intelligence (AI). Two flagship AI innovations stand out:
AI-Driven CRM: A next-generation customer relationship platform that uses predictive analytics to help freight forwarders and port operators identify new clients, generate leads from cargo manifests, and create data-driven sales funnels.
AI Cargo Matching Module: An intelligent system that automatically pairs shippers with the most suitable truckers based on cargo type, route, cost optimisation, and historical performance. This reduces delays, improves efficiency, and unlocks new revenue for both truckers and shippers.
By embedding AI across its ecosystem, CAS Broker is positioning Ghana as a leader in smart logistics for Africa.
Expansion into West Africa
With a strong foothold in Ghana, CAS Broker is actively exploring regional expansion into West Africa, targeting landlocked countries such as Burkina Faso, Niger, and Mali that rely heavily on Ghana’s ports for trade. By offering scalable SaaS and hybrid deployment models, CAS Broker is well-placed to provide governments, unions, and logistics companies across the sub-region with solutions that improve cross-border efficiency, transparency, and compliance.
About CAS Broker
CAS Broker is a Ghanaian logistics technology company specialising in digital platforms for freight brokerage, port terminal optimisation, and supply chain management. Through partnerships with institutions such as JAPTU, ACVL, and CAS Broker continues to deliver innovative solutions that transform Africa’s logistics industry.
Joint Association of Port Transport Unions(JAPTU) in partnership with its technical collaborators(Cas Broker Company Ltd ), has introduced the AI-Powered NFC Driver Card, a game-changing solution aimed at strengthening cargo security, improving logistics efficiency, and boosting government revenue through enhanced compliance with Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) – Customs Division regulations.
This initiative, which began in March last year, seeks to address key challenges such as cargo diversion, unauthorized truck movements, and inefficiencies in freight tracking. The introduction of the Driver & Vehicle Management System (DVMS), coupled with NFC-enabled ID cards, provides an automated, secure, and transparent method of verifying truck drivers and cargo handlers, ensuring a more accountable port operation. The Joint Association of Port Transport Unions (JAPTU), Ghana is the brainchild of the GPHA in collaboration with the Ghana Shippers’ Authority. Established in the year 2002.
A Major Boost for GRA-Customs
The Japtu NFC Driver Card offers significant benefits to GRA-Customs by ensuring accurate driver and vehicle identification, thereby reducing fraudulent cargo movements. The AI-powered analytics embedded in the system can predict potential cargo diversions by monitoring route deviations and anomalies, allowing authorities to take preventive action. The system also enhances government revenue collection by reducing tax evasion and increasing compliance with customs regulations.
Enhances driver accountability through digital identity tracking.
Uses AI-powered risk assessment to predict and prevent cargo theft.
Enables faster access to port facilities and reduced waiting times.
One of the standout features of the Japtu DVMS is its AI-powered fraud detection system, which continuously monitors cargo movement patterns to identify irregularities indicative of potential cargo diversions. When anomalies are detected, the system generates alerts for customs officials and logistics managers, allowing them to intervene before financial losses occur.
Practical Use Cases of the Japtu NFC Card
Port Entry & Exit Verification – Ensures only authorized trucks and drivers access Ghana’s ports.
Insurance & Risk Management – Assists insurers in verifying driver credentials and mitigating risks.
Warehouse & Transit Management – Enhances security for goods in bonded warehouses and transit operations.
Fleet & Logistics Optimization – Provides transporters with real-time driver data to improve decision-making.
Call for Government and Industry Support
Japtu is seeking collaboration and support from relevant government agencies, industry stakeholders, and regulatory bodies to implement this transformative initiative. By integrating AI-powered NFC verification systems, Ghana can significantly enhance cargo security, improve compliance, and increase revenue generation for the government.
This project remains ongoing, with Japtu committed to working closely with GRA-Customs, GPHA, GSA, shippers, truck owners, and other key players to ensure its full-scale implementation. With able leadership of Babayaro Shamsu Alhaji(Japtu chairman ) and CEO of CAS BROKER (Mr Eugene Ohemeng ) with other executives and team from cas broker made this possible
