Jade Software says its Master Terminal is now running live at three of seven planned installations for Abu Dhabi Ports.
Abu Dhabi Ports is replacing its legacy system with Jade’s terminal operating system. The recent implementation at Musaffah Port is the third port to go live with the new technology.
Jade says Zayed Port went live first on the 1st of July after a six-month implementation phase, a record for a general cargo terminal of its size.
The configuration and training delivered at Zayed Port laid the foundation for the delivery of the next two projects, with Khalifa Port going live on 1st August and Musaffah Port following soon after on 16th September.
These results build strong momentum for the successful delivery of additional business operations at Khalifa Port later in 2015 and the remaining four terminals, due for completion in 2016.
“Jade is fast being recognised as the leading terminal operating system for mixed cargo ports where increased operational efficiencies are key, helped greatly by its proven implementation methodology and expert implementation team,” says Jade Software Managing Director David Lindsay.
“Jade has also invested heavily in additional implementation and business support around the globe to cope with the increased demand for Master Terminal,” he says,
For Abu Dhabi Ports, Jade’s implementation team worked closely with staff from the beginning to ensure that the new processes and technology seamlessly integrate into their business, and all staff were expertly trained.
“Already Abu Dhabi Ports has seen tangible benefits from the new technology as it drives efficiencies that can then be passed on to its customers. Once all seven ports are live with Master Terminal, there will be a significant improvement for the business,” says Lindsay.
