Ports and terminals

When the crane stops, the whole quay stops. You should have known yesterday.

We turn an early equipment-degradation event into a planned fix, before it stops a vessel call.

Sound familiar

What terminal operators tell us

"A reefer alarm sat unread overnight and we lost the cargo."

The alarm fired. Nobody was watching the screen at 3am, and the window to save the container closed before the shift changed.

"RTG breakdowns in peak windows wreck our berth productivity."

An unplanned stoppage during a vessel call cascades into missed moves, idle labour, and a productivity number you have to explain.

"Maintenance is scheduled by hours run, not by what the equipment says."

Fixed intervals service healthy machines and miss the one that was about to fail. The equipment was telling you; nothing was listening.

Where to start

The terminal events worth automating first

We pick the single equipment event with the highest avoidable cost and build the full event-to-action chain for it. Then the next.

Crane and RTG failure prediction

Hydraulic, vibration, and fault-code patterns flag a machine trending toward failure, so it is serviced on a planned slot rather than mid-call.

Reefer temperature breach

A reefer drifting out of range triggers an alert and an assignment the moment it happens, not when someone next walks the row.

Berth productivity risk

When equipment availability threatens the moves-per-hour a call needs, the risk is flagged early enough to reassign and protect the number.

Condition-based maintenance

Service is driven by actual load and degradation, so you stop servicing equipment that is fine and stop missing equipment that is not.

A worked event

One event, run end to end

Event

RTG-07 hydraulic pressure drifting below band

Intelligence

Bearing failure 58% probability within 72h

Decision

Planned swap in low window versus peak breakdown

Action

Schedule maintenance, reassign moves to RTG-11

Outcome

Unplanned stoppage avoided, berth productivity held

Equipment health and operational flow, in one accelerator

Ports run on our Asset Intelligence accelerator for equipment health, paired with the Supply Chain Control Tower for the operational picture across the yard. The same six-layer flow that is live in production today, configured for your equipment, your reefers, and your berth windows.

Built on your TOS, equipment sensors, and comms

Human approval gates on maintenance calls

Full audit trail on every alert and work order

Seven screens from the build

Each screen maps to a layer. You pick the ones you need.

Modular by design. Start with the screens the first event needs, add the rest as you grow. What follows are real screens from a build we ran inside a client's systems, not a subscription product.

Live Events

Real-time ingestion and normalisation of every operational event.

Event

Asset Registry

The master ledger of assets with full lifecycle history in one place.

Event

Network Map

Geospatial view with live telemetry across the whole estate.

Intelligence

Risk Accelerator

Predictive scoring with AI explanation chips and confidence ratings.

Decision

Interventions

Cost of action versus inaction, then approve and execute in one place.

Workflow

Automations

IF, AND, THEN rules running thousands of executions at high success.

Action

Simulation Accelerator

What-if scenarios across six domains, with pre-emptive actions ranked.

Outcome

Add what you need

Analytics, compliance and audit, system health, and integrations hub round out the set.
