Euroports will implement the Navis Master Terminal operating system across its bulk and breakbulk terminals.
The agreement includes a three-phased plan for several terminals with a target to go live within three years. With a focus on Euroports’ breakbulk facilities, the Navis terminal operating system (TOS) will replace legacy systems, applying standardisation for greater consistency and efficiency across the company’s network.
With the TOS, Eurosport’s will be able to manage breakbulk and bulk cargo, track operations and increase efficiency in administration and communication.
“We are putting a platform in place to provide operational excellence throughout our worldwide presence,” said Geert Gekiere, chief financial operator of Euroports. “This involves a customer-centric solution that captures best practices, consistent communication, and efficient administration. The goal is to identify the most suitable solutions for all our stakeholders. I am certain that the Navis team is the right partner to assist us in making this trip a success.”
Jacques Marchetti, vice president and general manager, Navis EMEA, added: “Breakbulk terminals face a unique set of challenges when it comes to managing cargo. Having the entire Euroports global network on one central system will offer invaluable insights into the real time moves and data, not just at the ground level of each terminal, ultimately enabling business improvements network-wide.”
