Modular. Adaptive. Scalable.

Real-time. Visibility. Optimization. Efficiency.
You’ve read it all before. Every terminal solution sounds the same, just different slides, same promises.

We do things differently. Instead of repeating buzzwords, we focus on what actually moves your operations forward: modular AI optimization that works with your existing TOS, not against it. Seamlessly integrated, our add-on modules optimize container flows and equipment deployment in real time, improving resource utilization, increasing reliability, and driving on-time performance where it matters.

Built modular. Designed to fit your terminal, whether automated or manual. Scalable as your operations grow. And always transparent, so your team stays in control.

add-on optimization modules to your TOS

The optimizer enhances your existing TOS with AI-driven decision-support and decision-making:

  • Yard Optimizer
    Optimize container stacking, reduce rehandles, and improve yard space utilization.
  • Vehicle Optimizer
    Improve internal transport efficiency, reduce empty moves, and optimize vehicle utilization.
  • Crane Optimizer
    Increase crane productivity through optimized scheduling and reduced idle times.
  • Train Load Optimizer
    Optimize rail loading plans and improve slot utilization with automated planning support.
  • Rail Scheduler
    Optimize rail operations through improved crane coordination, better transfer point utilization, and ETD-based on-time departures.

Optimize Yard Space and Container Flows

Optimize Yard Space and Container Flows

Optimize Yard Space and Container Flows

Use intelligent, parameter based stacking to assign the best storage location for every container. This reduces rehandles, shortens travel distances and prevents congestion before it occurs.

Maximize Equipment Productivity

Maximize Equipment Productivity

Maximize Equipment Productivity

Coordinate vehicles and cranes in real time, combining jobs and avoiding empty moves. The result is higher utilization, fewer idle times and more efficient use of existing assets.

Improve Rail and Train Handling

Improve Rail and Train Handling

Improve Rail and Train Handling

Synchronize loading, unloading and train planning with live operations. Increase train utilization, reduce delays and ensure smooth, balanced workflows at the rail.

Trusted in Live Operations. 
Proven by Results.

Terminal operations are becoming more demanding than ever. Our optimization solutions are supporting container terminals handling millions of TEU annually, helping operators to streamline operations, reduce inefficiencies, and achieve measurable performance improvements at scale.

Selected customer results:

-25%

reduction in total driving distance within the terminal

+14.4% 

increase in crane productivity

-35.4%

reduction in the number of days of 3-shift operation

Optimization That Integrates, Not Disrupts

Optimization should improve your terminal, not force you to rebuild it.

Our AI-based optimization modules integrate directly into your existing TOS and IT landscape, acting as an intelligent decision layer that continuously adapts to live operational conditions in real time.

That means full interoperability across your terminal systems, seamless integration into existing workflows, and optimization that works in the reality of daily operations — whether your terminal is manual, semi-automated, or fully automated.

What this means:

  • Real-time optimization instead of static planning
  • AI-driven operational decisions based on live conditions
  • Seamless interoperability across systems and equipment
  • Fast integration into existing TOS environments
  • Proven in live terminal operations

Uncover Hidden Performance Losses

Not sure where inefficiencies are coming from?

INFORM’s AI-driven analysis services help you uncover hidden bottlenecks, understand root causes, and identify the most impactful improvement opportunities based on your real operational data.

From process mining and simulation to demand forecasting, we provide the insights you need to make confident, data-driven decisions before investing in changes.

What you gain:

  • Full transparency into your operations
  • Clear identification of performance bottlenecks
  • Data-driven decisions instead of assumptions
  • A prioritized roadmap for improvement

* Results are based on selected customer implementations and operational environments. Actual results may vary depending on terminal setup, processes, infrastructure, and implementation scope.

*¹ Measured for one customer between 2020 and 2023 following the implementation of the Yard Optimizer and Vehicle Optimizer.

*² Based on annual average productivity measured after Crane Optimizer go-live compared to 2025.

*³ Measured for one customer between the first full operational year after go-live and 2025 at nearly constant container volume.
