It will be put in place across four container terminals; Sundah\u00f6fn, Rey\u00f0arfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur and Grundartangi in Iceland as well as at T\u00f3rshavn in the Faroe Islands.<\/p>\n
Kristjan Thor Hallbjornsson, ICT director at Eimskip, said: \u201cOptimised productivity and enhanced customer service levels are the objectives we seek to support our growth plans into the next decade. CSA and TBA are critical parts of the delivery equation: the proven expertise of both companies in delivering business benefits and future-proofed software platforms was key to our decision.\u201d<\/p>\n
All four terminals will be run from a single centralised Autostore TOS implementation using the Autostore Multi Terminal Management module.<\/p>\n
Other TOS modules will also be deployed, such as berth planning, graphic vessel planning, vehicle booking, activity charging and value added services for container maintenance and repair.<\/p>\n
CSA will offer 24-hour support across remote virtual private network (VPN) for all operations.<\/p>\n
The new TOS implementation focuses on terminal performance and cost-efficiency. This focus will be supported by the integration of other Eimskip businesses in trucking and liner operations.<\/p>\n
Sundah\u00f6fn Terminal acts as an important node in the Eimskip network that serves the company\u2019s other businesses.<\/p>\n
Andrew McKaig, CEO at CSA, said: \u201cThe Eimskip contract highlights the ability of Autostore TOS to handle integrated multi-terminal operations \u2013 simplifying complex distributed operations while adding both value, performance and real-time flexibility to frontline container cargo management.\u201d<\/p>\n
Eimskip provides substantial cargo handling operations across the North Atlantic alongside an extensive worldwide network of reefer logistics services.<\/p>\n
The new TOS implementation spans the Autostore Container Terminal Management System (CTMS) plus a range of additional modules to increase cargo throughput and enhance operational efficiency at Eimskip\u2019s facilities.<\/p>\n
CSA\u2019s sister company, European terminal software consultancy TBA will work jointly with CSA and Eimskip on TOS migration across operations, planning and IT integration.<\/p>\n
Yvo Saanen, managing director at TBA, concluded: \u201cEimskip, CSA and TBA have much in common: lean and responsive structures underpinned by a strong, entrepreneurial culture.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTBA\u2019s extensive simulation, emulation and modelling capabilities will create a powerful performance optimisation layer for Eimskip, one that that helps drive long-term efficiency and profitability.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
