With issues such as the Panama Canal’s restrictions and the attacks in the Red Sea making it a challenge for terminal operations to accurately forecast demand and volumes, terminals should leverage different data types to improve accuracy, according to Chad Van Derrick, vice president of software product management at Tideworks Technology.
Tideworks’ Mark Bromley in an interview with AJOT talks about both the challenges and benefits derived by intermodal operations.
Over the past decade, there has been a shift toward “smart” technologies that help increase efficiency, writes Hugh Gallagher, vice president of marine client services, Tideworks Technology.
On Monday 13 June, the G&W terminal in Manchester went live with the Tideworks terminal operating systems. Within two days, trucking lead times had already been slashed with more than 60 per cent.
By the end of this year, Genesee & Wyoming Inc (G&W) will have implemented terminal operating systems (TOS) at ten of its UK terminals.
A terminal operating system helps a terminal be more efficient. This is what we have learnt from best practices and those who have embraced digitalisation as the future for rail.
Seattle-based Tideworks Technology is working with customers operating intermodal terminals to improve the velocity of containers through their facilities.
A change in the TOS used by Crowley Maritime Corp has sped up truck turn times and allowed for better use of limited yard space.
Tideworks Technology has announced the go-live of its new marine TOS solution, Mainsail 10, at the Manzanillo International Terminal in Panama.
Tideworks has entered into a joint venture with Brenock Technology, who aims to deliver enhanced management solutions to port terminals and cruise industry.
