The Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) has introduced a new measure for revenue leakage blockage tagged Revenue Invoicing Management Systems (RIMS) and is expected to take off in October, 2015.

This new measure was put in place in its effort to block revenue leakages and also expected to help the Authority to generate about N55 billion from cargo based revenue from the N40 billion it recorded in 2014.

Speaking during the launching of the RIMS in Lagos, Wednesday, the Managing Directorof NPA, Mallam Habib Abdullahi stated that the scheme would allow customers initiate and conclude their business processes with NPA and also communicate with the agency.

According to him, “The introduction of this system has the potential to improve our service offering, improve our partner relationship, create efficient payment method, maximize revenue and minimize loss associated with fraud and revenue leakage.”

“The customer self service portal on the other hand provides a platform for our customers to initiate and conclude their business process with NPA and also communicate with us.

“The benefits accruing from this portal includes amongst others: Improve customer service delivery; easy access to customer accounts status; view all transactions and status in respect of bills; electronic upload of manifest and E-invoice and e-receipt generation,” he said.

Abdullahi also stated that the introduction of the solution would facilitate business growth and unlimited operations.

In his words, “It is obvious that the introduction of these solutions will facilitate business growth with high performance and unlimited scalability of the operations of the Authority.

“This is evident from statistics which have shown that cargo throughput increased from 46, 150, 518 metric tons in 2006 to 86, 603, 903 metric tons in 2014 indicating an 87% increase during that period which is due in part to our continued efforts at improving processes,” he maintained.

Also speaking, the Executive Director, Finance and Administration, Mr. Olumide Oduntan while giving presentation on the RIMS, quipped that process was fully integrated with existing solutions as oracle financials and others.

Olumide added that the introduction of Electronic Ship Entry Notice (E-SEN) has helped to increase revenue status of the Authority.

He maintained that the E-sen has increased the revenue of the agency by 36 percent from N67.5 billion in 2014 to N91.9 billion in 2015 as expected.
