Navis TOS helps Port of Newark to handle more boxes without disruption
PORT Newark Container Terminal (PNCT) has set a new weekly record for vessel lifts and rail lifts since upgrading to Navis' N4 terminal operating system (TOS) in January, after handling container volumes for two to three weeks without disruption.
The move to N4 is part of a PNCT US$500 million infrastructure modernisation project expected to double terminal capacity to 2.3 million TEU by 2019, reported London's Container Management journal.
Located within the Port of New York and New Jersey, PNCT handles 1.3 million TEU annually.
Said PNCT vice president Chris Garbarino: "This provides us the foundation and platform that will allow PNCT to expand our data and service offerings to not only benefit carriers, but other critical stakeholders such as shippers/forwarders by providing tailored solutions."
According to a statement from Navis, PNCT selected N4 due to its "enhanced data, billing and reporting capabilities; the sophistication of its optimisation modules; configuration and data analytics capabilities; and its proven integration and compatibility with other advanced terminal technologies, including PDS, OCR and gate management systems."
"We experienced significant volume surges in Q1 2017 requiring the system to perform optimally in an exceptionally small period of time," said Mr Garbarino.
