PORTS
America Chesapeake (PAC) has rolled out a new
terminal operating system (TOS), Navis N4 that will act as a single
platform for all the cargo handled at its terminals.
The new TOS is part of a wider US$142 million investment
in equipment and infrastructure upgrades to remain competitive in the region,
reported Seatrade Maritime News, Colchester, UK.
Ports
America said that the system will form the backbone
for further enhancements at the port of Baltimore's Seagirt and Dundalk marine
terminals.
"Adopting a modern, streamlined TOS like Navis N4
will provide stability and yield results as we push our capacity goals further
and support sustainable growth of the port," said Ports America Chesapeake vice
president Bayard Hogans.
He said that along with handling extra volume, the new
system will boost velocity, efficiency and safety.
The company has been in the process of standardising its
core TOS platform as it has upgraded major facilities to N4 including PNCT, New
Orleans and now PAC.
New
Jersey-headquartered Ports America operates in 42 ports and 80 locations. It
handles 13.4 million TEU, 2.6 million vehicles and 10.5 million tonnes per
annum.
