Narrative:
We were parked in the holding area at ord for 35 mins (after landing) waiting for our gate to open. Ramp control called us and said to start coming over to the gate as it was starting to clear. We started engines and taxied out of the holding area. We contacted ground control and they told us to follow a company widebody transport to the ramp. We had already taxied out of the holding area and were ahead of the widebody transport when he gave the taxi instructions. No conflicts occurred. I realized later that I should have held my position in the holding area until ground gave taxi instructions.
