Efficiency in the Supply Chain by a New Container Invention w/ Trevor Pan of BidBird AZ TRT S04 EP41 (204) 10-15-2023   Things We Learned This Week Malcolm McLean was the inventor of the shipping Container, and a key person in trade & globalization BidBird invented a container skin, a smooth panel for the side to reduce wind resistance & improve fuel efficiency Patent process and Patent Cooperation Treaty to register an invention in foreign countries Building a Prototype and doing a road test with a Truck plus a Container on a race track       Guest: Tevor Pan, BidBird Principal Architect - February 2018 - Present Undergraduate Professional Degree - Landscape Architecture, Colorado State University,  Fort Collins, Colorado 2003 Master Degree - Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture, Scottsdale, Arizona 2006   o   Twitter o   LinkedIn     https://bidbird.co/about THE FIRST CONSTRUCTION MARKETPLACE, AT YOUR FINGERTIPS.   Trevor Pan, BidBird Founder & registered Arizona architect.   Spending 21 years as an architect immersed in construction, manufacturing, and design, I've built a unique understanding of the construction industry's constant movements and challenges. I know that construction professionals are exhausted by the RFP game—and the collusion that can come along with it.   I've seen invasive service platforms that trap users into thinking they're a lead generating machine, but then unethically charge them thousands with no quality results.   When I set off to launch BidBird, I wanted to eliminate the red tape and corruption for suppliers, manufacturers, contractors, and building owners. And when my barber approved the irresistible alliteration of the name, BidBird was born.   BidBird is the new way for construction professionals to achieve a constant-but-necessary thing: capture competitive bids for their materials through an efficient process.   At its core, our mission is simple. We connect construction industry professionals around the country through an honest platform that doesn't cost users unreasonable fees, or their dignity.   With its simplicity comes big things. BidBird is an opportunity to beat out the “big guys” by just a penny, equalizing the hunt for businesses around the country.   We strive to combine high-value jobs + the innovation to evolve with construction professionals' needs to transform businesses, one bid at a time.     Notes:   Seg 1 Preview clip of Trevor Pan   Malcolm McLean and the History of the Container   This leads to a new level of capitalism, modern globalization & wider trade   Malcolm Mclean is the inventor of one of the most major inventions in history that affects people daily. He is also not known by many people despite the impact he has had.   McLean owned a trucking company and he used to ship goods via boat. He'd be waiting on the docks with cotton in the 1940s in early 1950s for hours.   Ships would be docked for a month, as men were loading crates by hand. The same system was being done with global trade and sea trade for thousands of years.   Mclean got tired of this, and trying to figure out a solution to the problem like any entrepreneur. Find a need and fill it.   January 1956 - he debuted the box ship. McLean got a $22 million loan & bought 2 World War II tankers and converted them. In April 1956 the first one sailed from New Jersey to Houston. This cut cost from 5.86 per  to $.16, a 95% drop or 36 fold savings.   Oct.1957 - the first real containership Gateway city launched. Trip went from New York to Florida to Texas and then on later to Puerto Rico. Per McLean, ‘the ship makes money when at sea'.   In 1963, container ports had been created, by 1966 in Europe, 1967 Vietnam had container service, and 1969 Hong Kong and more Southeast Asia.   McLean got a patent which is shared, called – standardization, and the standardize size container for shipping.   He created a company, called Sealand Industries - which was then bought by RJ Reynolds. Eventually they were mergers and oil companies that bought out the line and today it's on by MAERSK.   Goods are shipped today for pennies on the dollar, all because of McLean‘s invention. He changed global trade, shipping, oil exploration, and more. It's a multi trillion dollar invention. It also created port cities like Oakland. Every day it affects all sorts of goods and trades finance, big companies like Walmart and Apple.   Not sure if we would have globalization if not for Mclean. At least not as fast.     More Info on Malcolm McLean: HERE       Seg 2 Trevor Pan of BidBird created a skin for a shipping container. Smooth out the side of the container and stops wind drag and the grooved pockets that are trapping air. It is a panel that is magnetically put on the side of a container.   Saves mileage and fuel efficiency with truckers, likely will have the same effect on trains. Could even help fuel efficiency on freighter ships which are carrying 10 containers stack tie and 1000 feet long with hundreds of containers on a ship.   Trevor started the company in 2020, with his background as an architect. Also has experience in coding and engineering.   He has created construction materials. This led to him researching freight from East Asia to build and create its construction materials. Meanwhile the time during Covid and 2020 shipping rates were off the coast of California with the supply chain issues. Created his container skin and got the patent in July 2021.     Seg 3 Process for an invention   First, come up with the idea, which is easy. Then have to do a patent application.   Now to the hard part, build a prototype. Then to the hardest part - you have to market and sell your initial product.   Find the problem, solve a problem, create the solution, & find a client to sell to.   Trevor did his own patent filing. Trevor had a background already with his design skills and had done a patent for previous inventions. Also did his own legal paperwork. Patents for shipping container scan. Under utility patents, which are patents for machines.   Patent It Yourself - book by Donald Pressman   Normally you would hire a patent agent or an attorney to file your patent but Trevor read the Pressman and did it himself. He was so obsessive, that he actually  read a 6 Volume set on patent claims, which was over 2400 pages and took almost 6 months.   Also got a Patent Cooperation Treaty so you do the work one time with filing the patent and then you can use the same patent template in multiple countries.   The Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) assists applicants in seeking patent protection internationally for their inventions, helps patent offices with their patent granting decisions, and facilitates public access to a wealth of technical information relating to those inventions.   By filing one international patent application under the PCT, applicants can simultaneously seek protection for an invention in a large number of countries.   He is working on building a prototype to prove that his container scan is aerodynamic and would work on a real road test. He has contacted major industrial companies like Piedmont Plastics to build machine grade plastics. Also used a 3-D printing machine to create a mini prototype.   Trevor has done the math to keep the magnets and panels on the side of a truck driving down the highway at 65 miles an hour.   Regarding the marketing and sale of the product, Trevor actually contacted the top 6 logistics companies in the US and got little to no response.     Seg 4 Big logistics companies like JB Hunt did not even respond to Trevor on his idea.   Trevor has worked to sell his idea organically. He went to Innovation Zero trade show in London as well as a Sustainability Summit also in the London area being put on by the Economist.   He was able to talk with the business and trade department in the UK.   Has a contact who is a trucker, and would rent a raceway to test his prototype container skin on the road.   Have to have flexibility to get a good idea going.   Is also working on buying a shipping container. Researching shipping containers, you can get one for $500 from Russia. Actual cost for a container from the U.S. for about $3000.   Putting together a patent, you have to do a search report to see if someone has an already patented the idea. This takes upwards of 1 year to file a patent.   Trevor also reached out to government organizations about the fuel efficiency with his product. Reached out to the EPA, and their smart way program, to see about certifying the aerodynamic capabilities. The EPA contacted him but is not going to move forward with it.   He also contacted an environmental organization in the state of California and did not get anywhere.   Question: Since Trevor still needs to do the prototype and show a real world road test, is it too early to contact organizations as potential sponsors or clients?   Sometimes the idea is too early, and the world is not ready yet.         Tech Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Tech   More - BRT Best of Tech: Best of AZ Tech Council BRT of Tech 2022 BRT S02 EP52 (99) 12-26-2021 – Tech for the Holidays – BRT      Best of Biotech from AZ Bio & Life Sciences to Jellatech: HERE   Biotech Shows: HERE   AZ Tech Council Shows:  https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=az+tech+council *Includes Best of AZ Tech Council show from 2/12/2023      ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT      Thanks for Listening.

In recent times, the logistics industry has moved to the forefront of everyone's attention. This can be attributed to events like the COVID-19 pandemic, which had a significant impact on the transportation of goods, services, and people; and the Suez Canal incident, which became a hot topic for jokes and memes amongst younger generations on the internet.    This podcast is a deep dive into the state of the logistics industry, analyzing different perspectives on how professionals and the C-suite can help bring the global supply chain to its full potential with the dawn of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.   Capturing the Human Element of Tech Innovation   In the simplest words, logistics has always been described as the act of bringing something from point A to point B. However, there is plenty more to discover beneath the surface.    The increased number of nodes across the supply chain that contribute to the end product, the additional pressure to make transportation more efficient, and a world that continues to demand for more from international suppliers pressure the industry to continuously reinvent. While it is inspirational to see that the pace of technological innovation is accommodating these concerns, our discussion dares to ask: does this pace make room for the human element?   The human element of tech innovation refers to whether we are capable of maximizing the potential of gadgets, processes, and standards. It's a concern that consistently pops up for big data across different industries: the capacity of businesses to make the most out of these silos.   How Can Logistics Professionals Push for Change   Adopting modern technologies can be difficult because of the initial learning curve. It will, inevitably, disrupt the way that certain processes and workflows have been carried out for decades. In some cases, entire occupations may be rendered obsolete. The reality is that there is still some resistance to making this transition because not many people see the importance of bearing this temporary disruption to get the long-term benefits.   “You can create new technologies but unless people choose to adopt it, it's not going to do anything fantastic.” Alex pointed out..   Ruben Huber mused over the possibility of careers in logistics taking on a more consultative aspect. This would be part of their efforts to bridge the gap between the dearth of knowledge offered by big data in the industry, and their clients.   “We need to be more than just transporters of cargo from A to B. I always see this in our industry as an opportunity to do a lot more,' he explained, “It's very true that we still do things like we used to do them instead of questioning it.   Dare to Question Status Quo   Malcolm Mclean was a truck driver who was sitting at the port and started wondering why he had to wait ten hours for cargo to get offloaded from the ship. He eventually worked on developing this line of inquiry into a full-fledged business idea— one that is credited to have revolutionized the shipping industry.   To put this in the perspective of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it's not just about how labor is going to get disrupted by these technologies. It's also a call for people to come together as a global community so that the technologies can be utilized to solve real world problems.   Closing Thoughts   As the pandemic continues, we continue to be bombarded by new and exciting ways to restructure the way we work.   The globalized economy we are privileged to experience today is built on the foundations of a supply chain that stretches across multiple countries. Businesses and corporations source all their raw materials and labor from beyond their geopolitical borders, as part of their efforts to provide the end products and services that we enjoy on a regular basis.   With so much emphasis on delivering these goods to the communities that need them, it is safe to say that logistics and the supply chain are people-oriented industries. It will be important to continue optimizing technologies and making the most out of big data. In addition, everybody must be transparent and made to understand the process so that a mutual understanding is fostered towards that common goal of progress for humanity as a whole.   What's your data worth? www.tartle.co   TCAST is brought to you by TARTLE.

In today's edition of Navigate B2B, host Steve Ferreira laments this may be the container shipping industries super bowl. The Reddit and meme worlds of the Ever Given of just yesterday are being replaced by a bigger and sinister monster threatening to make “Containergeddon” look like a King Kong v. Godzilla bloodbath. Like a house divided, Ocean freight vendors and beneficial cargo owners are at loggerheads and come March 2022, it seems unlikely to me that BCO's would want to raise (maybe break) a glass with what some might call necessary adversaries.Follow FreightWaves on Apple PodcastsFollow FreightWaves on SpotifyMore FreightWaves Podcasts

“I was totally ignorant, so I said, ‘Why not give it a try?'” -Malcolm McLean There are two traits present in virtually every world-altering innovative genius:  Confidence and obsession.  The man who saw to it that goods were shipped internationally primarily by container -- he might have been as confident as any innovator ever was. "His idea for modernizing the loading and unloading of ships, which was previously conducted in much the same way the ancient Phoenicians did 3,000 years ago, has resulted in much safer and less-expensive transport of goods, faster delivery, and better service."  -Norman Mineta   The bulk of the information I used in this show comes from "They Made America" by Harold Evans.  You can find it here:  https://www.amazon.com/They-Made-America-Centuries-Innovators/dp/0316277665/ref=sr_1_1?crid=UHD9LLOV27FS&dchild=1&keywords=they+made+america+by+harold+evans&qid=1607073286&s=books&sprefix=they+made+america+%2Cstripbooks%2C148&sr=1-1

Han kallades för playboy, frotterade sig med kändisar och hade skandalomsusade kärleksrelationer. Skeppsredaren Ari Onassis gav med sin flärdfulla stil Grekland en fläkt av internationell glamour. Aristoteles Onassis signaturstil var eleganta dubbelknäppta kostymer, bakåtslickat hår och tjockbågade glasögon. Men det de flesta sammanknippar honom med är hans omtalade kärleksrelationer. Han var under en tid tillsammans med den berömda operasångerskan Maria Callas, för att 1968 gifta sig med presidenthustrun Jackie Kennedy. Det var då hon blev Jackie O, till mångas förtrytelse, och förfäran. Ari Onassis föddes 1906 i turkiska Smyrna, men flydde staden under det grekisk-turkiska kriget 1922 och hamnade i Argentina. Där gjorde hans familj sig en förmögenhet på tobak och Ari kunde återvända till Europa och Grekland som en rik man. När han började uppmärksammas som en player, och lekkamrat till kända kvinnor, hade han en lång och framgångsrik karriär bakom sig. Redan i början av 1930-talet hade han börjat köpa begagnade fraktfartyg som han byggde om till tankfartyg. Han ägde också sitt eget flygbolag, även om det kanske mest var för att visa att han kunde. Havet var hans hustru, och himlen hans älskarinna, som en av hans vänner konstaterade. När det gäller båtar så hade Ari Onassis privat en favorit. Det var den yacht som han gav namnet Christina, döpt efter sin dotter. I sommar när det för de flesta svenskar inte är aktuellt med utlandsresor har intresset för båtar istället skjutit i höjden. Tidigare har det funnits en oro i båtvärlden att unga inte skulle vara intresserade av det hårda arbete som en båt innebär, men det finns fortfarande många unga personer som drömmer om att äga en båt. Vi ringer upp journalisten Niklas Gyberg Ivarsson som bland annat skriver om båtlivet. Malcolm McLean hette mannen som kom på att man kunde frakta varor i containers. Det var en innovation som gav Ari Onassis konkurrens ifråga om topplaceringen på olika listor över århundradets män i rederibranschen. McLean skapade också - kanske något oväntat - ett alldeles speciellt byggmaterial för hus. Idag finns det nämligen restauranger, hotell och butiker gjorda av just containers. Trenden att bygga hus av stållådor sträcker sig världen över och vi tittar närmare på den. Något som alltid har förknippats med livet vid havet är snäckor. De återfinns bland de äldsta smycken människor burit, och har påverkat både mode och smink i form av pärlemorskimmer, ostronfärg och snäckmönster. Det är också ett material i tiden. Den hårda kalken, som bearbetas av små havsdjur i behov av skydd, är både ekologiskt och förnyelsebart så länge snäckorna samlas på ett hållbart sätt förstås. Vi pratar med konstnärerna Pompe Hedengren och Sheila Pinas som använder snäckor i sin konst. Veckans gäst är Alexandra Pascalidou, journalist och författare med en nära relation till Grekland.

The boom in global trade was caused by a simple steel box. Shipping goods around the world was – for many centuries – expensive, risky and time-consuming. But, as Tim Harford explains, 60 years ago the trucking entrepreneur Malcolm McLean changed all that by selling the idea of container shipping to the US military. Against huge odds he managed to turn 'containerisation' from a seemingly impractical idea into a massive industry – one that slashed the cost of transporting goods internationally and provoked a boom in global trade.
