The ports of Oakland, Los Angeles, Long Beach, Hueneme and San Diego will receive a one-time $27 million allocation from the state budget to develop a shared data system aimed at improving the flow of goods, an attempt to tackle some of the logistics challenges that emerged during the pandemic and subsequent supply chain crisis.

The MOU outlines an agreement among the five ports to jointly advance computerized and cloud-based data interoperability, with a common goal of supporting improved freight system resilience, goods movement efficiency, emissions reduction, and economic competitiveness, a state news release said.
