Navis has announced that YILPORT Holding Inc. has implemented its Smart Compass at five terminals, following a pilot programme in May of last year.
Navis Compass was a natural fit for YILPORT’s operations and will help real-time visibility and data sharing among its vast terminal network, according to the Cargotec-parent company. YILPORT currently operates 22 marine ports and terminals globally handling 12 million TEU containers and 22 million tons in general and dry bulk cargo annually.
"Due to the success of the programme at terminals that use Navis N4, YILPORT made the decision to implement the solution more widely for enhanced data sharing, communication and visibility, in addition to enabling remote operation capabilities among its global teams," said Navis.
The YILPORT operations, customer service, data management and planning departments will use the Compass application for visibility and communication for a number of tasks between teams which will help centralise and standardise planning and execution processes. Additionally, the automated functions will help them manage several terminals at a time in a more reliable and efficient way to help monitor workflow.
"Navis Smart Compass has been a game-changer for our port operations and management,” commented Cem Goktaş, Global Operations Director, YILPORT. “Now all users, regardless of where they are located, can see all information regarding upcoming vessel visits to know exactly what tasks need to be done and who is working on them, saving us time, money and reducing the risk of human error."
