Tideworks Technology Inc. (Tideworks), a full-service provider of terminal operating system (TOS) solutions, is celebrating the 15th anniversary of Intermodal Pro™, the company’s TOS for intermodal rail terminals.
Since the longest-running active implementation at CSX in Ohio, Intermodal Pro has been implemented in more than 85 intermodal rail terminals, improving efficiency, reducing costs and increasing revenue for rail stakeholders and their customers worldwide.
Tideworks developed Intermodal Pro in collaboration with leading rail operators to meet the industry’s evolving needs. The solution provides real-time intelligence to enhance throughput, streamline operations and optimise asset utilisation, driving greater efficiency and capacity for terminals.
Trusted by global rail leaders, Intermodal Pro empowers operators to digitise workflows, seamlessly connect terminal systems and partners and scale effectively for growth. As part of Intermodal Pro’s ongoing evolution over the past 15 years, Tideworks has introduced powerful new tools that empower customers to configure their own business rules directly within the application.
This functionality dramatically reduces implementation time, giving terminals more control and agility without waiting for a code release, reported Tideworks.
Tideworks has deployed Intermodal Pro across sites at three of the six Class I railroads, including the largest freight railroad in the U.S. The solution is also live across leading rail facilities in the U.K. Intermodal Pro supports all types of intermodal rail terminals, from large to small, manually operated and highly automated facilities. It is designed to handle the most complex automation solutions, including operations with automated wide-span gantry cranes.
“This milestone reflects Tideworks’ commitment to driving customer success, advancing innovation and strengthening efficiency in the global rail sector, delivering greater value to our partners and the industry,” said Thomas Rucker, president of Tideworks.
“For 15 years, we have evolved Intermodal Pro to help rail operators modernise, adapt to shifting supply chain demands and reduce nonproductive moves, ensuring efficiency and resilience in a dynamic industry.”
