BCT opts for Tideworks management suite

“We have already seen the benefits. Through our execution of Tideworks’ terminal operating system, we have access to increased productivity while enhancing our customer service levels,” said Johannes de Jong, CEO of BCT.

BCT currently has a handling capacity of 750,000 teu, and is the leading container terminal in Poland and one of the largest in the Baltic region. Tideworks was selected because of its proven, industry-leading solutions as well as its depth of operational experience. Specifically, BCT required software and a solution that supported feeder terminal operations, a unique booking system and customs processes for cargo.

The implementation encompassed four applications: Mainsail Terminal Management System, Mainsail Online, Spinnaker Planning Management System and Traffic Control. According to Tideworks, this integrated suite will offer BCT increased productivity, enhanced container visibility and improved inventory control and asset management, reducing its overall operating cost. BCT will receive round-the-clock support from Tideworks’ Service Center as well as software upgrades as part of its standard software maintenance and support service.
