π Tender Overview
Between January and May 2026, the National Port Authority supervised compliance with security and protection measures in maritime and river terminals of the National Port System.With the aim of guaranteeing safe, efficient port operations aligned with national and international standards, the National Port Authority (APN), an entity attached to the Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC), carried out 211 inspections of port facilities in various regions of the country during the first five months of 2026.
The inspections were carried out in important maritime and river terminals in the country, located in Salaverry, Pisco, Chancay, Matarani, Iquitos, Ilo and Yurimaguas, among others. During these interventions, the operating conditions and the implementation of mechanisms aimed at preventing risks and strengthening the continuity of port activities were evaluated.
The supervisory actions included 170 operational inspections aimed at verifying compliance with current regulations on port security and protection. Of this total, 86 were aimed at evaluating port protection measures and 84 at supervising aspects related to the security of operations.
As part of this control and continuous improvement work, the APN also carried out 41 specialized audits, of which 17 corresponded to port protection, 15 to port security and 9 to special port facilities. These actions made it possible to verify the effectiveness of the implemented procedures and promote the strengthening of risk management in the port area.
Through these interventions, the National Port Authority reaffirms its commitment to strengthening the security and protection of the National Port System, through permanent supervision and coordinated work with port operators. In this way, we contribute to the development of a modern, reliable and competitive port system, which supports the growth of foreign trade and the national economy.
