Advanced equipment control & scheduling system (ECS) for automated and efficient operation of all your automated container terminal equipment. TEAMS ECS schedules and operates any type of automated container terminal equipment and runs your terminal operation efficient, safe, reliable and optimized for your standardized operational procedures and equipment set up.

Why choose TEAMS as the equipment control software solution for your terminal?

Complex automated terminals place high demands on automated operations. We believe TEAMS to be the only available automated equipment control system (ECS) able to operate reliably and efficiently for every type of available automated equipment and in every combination of TOS and equipment. The system delivers significant benefits across operations, costs, safety, automation integration and efficiency under all operational terminal conditions.

  • Scalable with a modular open architecture based on your equipment.
  • Optimises CAPEX, reduces OPEX, enhances safety & operational stability, improving your use of infrastructure.
  • Experienced implementation partner to support your project.

Software built for:

Automation of terminal operations holds many promises: cheaper and safer operations, less emissions, and better infrastructure utilization. More importantly, automation should guarantee a high performance and a reliable operation. However, the high complexity of a live terminal poses equally high demands on the control of automated equipment.

Proven High Productivity

Supports any type of automated equipment with a proven high performance, based on advanced simulation

Improved Reliability

Guaranteed availability and performance.

Operational Workflows

Standard support for all normal operational workflows and flexible customization to suit your terminal’s special workflows

Low Operational Costs

Automation gives fast return on investment whilst optimising your resourcing needs

TEAMS ECS supports fully automated scheduling for all types of equipment, both automated and manual. It is capable to plan all your operational job orders automatically. This allows you to optimize your planning according to your priority rules and ensure maximum productivity on the quay, with efficient truck/rail turnaround.

Real-time Analysis

Proven algorithms, based on extensive simulation and operations research, are continuously re-calculating in real time, while using minimal resources

Quay Crane Productivity

Taking into account planning, operational constrictions and available equipment and their characteristics, TEAMS ECS optimises the job assignments to maximize the quay crane productivity.

Improved Scheduling

Smart scheduling reduces truck turnaround times, rail loading times and uses your internal transport efficiently

Automated horizontal transport affects your whole terminal, it impacts the CAPEX, OPEX, operations, equipment, IT and most important your people and how they work
