Integrating critical yard, vessel, and rail graphical planning tools in one workspace, Spinnaker allows terminals to increase cargo volume, reduce vessel turn time and maximize efficiency no matter their workflow.

Comprehensive Graphical Planning

Integrate graphically-rich vessel, berth, yard, and rail planning tools all in one workspace to efficiently plan containers.

Automate Discharge and Stowage

Automatically sequence discharge containers with the push of a button and calculate the most efficient load-back sequence to reduce vessel turn times. Planners receive alerts to potential yard bumps.

Improve Inventory Accuracy

Efficient and flexible yard planning tools allow the terminal to optimize container locations and ensure an up-to-date, accurate terminal inventory.

Optimize Yard Space

Automate container location assignments for grounded or wheeled operations to maximize space utilization and the effectiveness of vessel and gate operations. Control container placement exceptions to avoid costly rehandles or set-asides.

Enhance Productivity

Use color-coded container information via features like the List and Find Tools to effortlessly plan vessels, modify operations to meet customer demand, and quickly create electronic work orders for dispatch in real-time.

Complete Workflow & Scheduling Tools

Create detailed bay-by-bay worklists by shift and gang to boost vessel productivity. Instructions can be automatically distributed to all vessel operations personnel.
