INFORM's modular Intermodal Terminal Operating System (TOS) design allows your terminals to select the functionalities they require to build a custom TOS to suit their specific needs. As your terminal grows, add additional modules to it - the system is scalable.
At the core of INFORM's Intermodal TOS is a powerful AI & optimization engine that, when added to your TOS's configuration, streamlines your terminal's efficiency and productivity helping you to reduce costs, increase throughput, and manage increased terminal complexity.
Syncrotess Intermodal TOS is the software for optimized load unit handling in intermodal terminals. Tailored to the needs of intermodal transport processes, the system enhances the container handling between rail, road and water. In order to do this, the system manages the miscellaneous transport processes within a terminal, the terminal-specific services and improves yard management.
INFORM harnesses the potential of AI to optimize the way terminals work. Powered by advanced machine learning algorithms and real-time data analytics, our AI-driven system offers unparalleled efficiency, accuracy, and adaptability in handling complex terminal operations. Embrace a future where AI transforms your terminal operations into a seamlessly orchestrated symphony of efficiency and precision.
Our modular Intermodal TOS design allows terminals to select the features they require to build a custom Terminal Operating System to suite their specific needs. As your terminal grows, add additional modules to increase your TOS functionality to match your needs.
Efficiently managing the processes in a terminal by streamlining the allocation of resources, time slots, and services to ensure smooth operations, minimize delays, and enhance overall efficiency.
Monitoring and controlling the entry and exit of vehicles, cargo, passengers, and personnel within the terminal premises. This is crucial for maintaining security, optimizing operations, and ensuring smooth and efficient flow of activities.
Efficient movement, positioning, and utilization of vehicles to support various operational activities. Effective vehicle control is essential for optimizing terminal operations, enhancing safety, and minimizing delays.
Enhance the efficiency and safety of terminal operations, improve cargo handling, and contribute to overall productivity in industries reliant on crane operations.
Get full transparency of all terminal processes, positions of load units, as well as internal and external resources in your terminal.
Provides management of all rail related base data to allow manual train planning using drag and drop functionality.
Management of incoming and outgoing ship voyages including administration of ship schedules.
Administration of damages and load units which needs to be repaired. Client individual calculated estimates can be automatically sent vie email out of Syncrotess.
All operational data is transferred to the billing module to determine whether the handling/service of a load unit is to be invoiced.
Intuitive, efficient, and user-friendly experience that aligns with the goals of the system. It aims to make interactions seamless, engage users, and ultimately enhance user satisfaction and engagement.
Syncrotess comes with a set of predefined business reports to give specific insights in your daily operations.
At the heart of INFORM's Intermodal TOS is a powerful AI & optimization engine that, when added to your TOS's configuration, streamlines your terminal's efficiency and productivity helping you to reduce costs, increase throughput, and manage increased terminal complexity.
Vehicle Optimizer increases vehicle utilization across all equipment types while reducing travel and lowering maintenance costs.
Crane Optimizer increases crane productivity by reducing travel and equipment interference as well as leveraging double-cycling moves when suitable.
Yard Optimizer provides an optimized yard allocation for load units to reduce rehandles and improve resource and storage area utilization.
Train Load Optimizer plans and updates the stowing of outbound trains while improving slot utilization and business objectives and practices.
Rail Scheduler increases rail crane and yard vehicle productivity while improving the utilization of transfer points at your rail area helping to facilitate automation.
Machine Learning improves the accuracy of operational data used for real-time operational decision-making and long-term strategic management planning.
Operating a full-service intermodal terminal within the world’s largest integrated chemical complex is a tough challenge. Expanding it beyond its physical yard and designed capacity limits is an ambitious project, requiring not only a state-of-the-art TOS, but a TOS with optimization capabilities based on AI algorithms.
Upgrading to a new TOS is a major project and an ambitious undertaking for any terminal operator. After all requirements were specified, a roadmap was outlined that ensured a smooth transition from the old to the new system. In March 2018, the go-live was successfully completed. What Samskip got was not only a full-blown, state-of-the-art TOS, but a TOS with optimization modules powered by algorithms.
