Pressure point: Email inboxes
Target Evaluation’s urgency email is under pressure at this time of year. If you wish to have a port hold removed, a copy of a BACC, a copy of charges or an ATF change these can be done over the phone and are likely a quicker option for you.
Please email either the TargetEvaluator.Cargo email (non-urgent enquiry) OR the Manifest email (for items meeting our urgency criteria). You do not need to email both inboxes and we ask that you email only once please. Extra work is created if two or more Target Evaluators need to check multiple emails to see if the request has been processed.d
If you are requesting urgency, please ensure that your consignment meets the criteria. Any additional information requested on a BACC should be updated via TSW in the first instance and an urgency request may be sent after this has been done (if applicable urgency criteria are met).
Whilst it is lovely to receive thank you emails when we process something from the inbox for you, this is unnecessary, and we ask that you refrain from doing this so as not to add to our email queue.
