Dominican ports move about 20 million metric tons of varied goods each year. Experts project that this could increase by 10% to 12% this year due to extended hours and the increased ease of working with the Dominican Port Authority (APORDOM). Those goods were shipped on roughly 6,000 ships. Luis Taveras Andujar, president of APORDOM's board said that Dominican ports have enhanced security and this had led to confidence and an increased level of investment. Taveras said that as part of plans to improve service, APORDOM would introduce two shifts, one that ends at 3:30pm and one that ends at 8pm. Cross-institutional cooperation is another part of APORDOM's plan to increase efficiency, including cooperation with the Customs Department and the Organization of American States (OAS). There is also talk of extending things to the university level with a possible career option at UNAPEC and PUCCM.
