With Anchorage live, TOTE now operates its Alaska and US mainland terminals entirely on Tideworks’ cloud-hosted TOS platform, following prior deployments in Jacksonville (2020) and Tacoma (2024).

“We’re proud to bring this project to completion and have every terminal now operating on the new Mainsail system,” said Joey Halverson, vice president of operations at TOTE Maritime Alaska.

“This is a big win for our operations and reflects the hard work and dedication of many key partners and team members across the organisation.”

Mainsail 10 provides a unified view of terminal operations, automates workflows and streamlines cargo management across TOTE’s network. The platform is designed to improve operational efficiency, consistency and overall performance while simplifying technology management.

The deployment also highlights the flexibility of Mainsail 10 to support specialised workflows and operational requirements, particularly for Alaska.

“TOTE has been a valued Tideworks partner for more than two decades, and this deployment represents our shared commitment to innovation and operational excellence,” said Thomas Rucker, president of Tideworks Technology.

“With our hosted Mainsail 10 TOS, TOTE gains a modern, fully supported platform that streamlines technology management, empowering their team to focus on growth and optimising terminal performance.”
