Through our in-house developed Dropboard technology we deliver Planning & Scheduling Systems in a variety of industries. Our solutions range from annual delivery plan generation to the operational scheduling of processes. Please select your industry to find out more.
Dropboard is specifically designed for the maritime industry and is deployed at ports and liquid bulk terminals. We understand that ports and terminals each have its unique planning & scheduling challenges, which is why we've created three pre-configured versions of Dropboard. Each version focuses on a different scheduling challenge, but because of its modular design a bespoke version can be configured to fit the unique scope of every port or terminal.
Industries
Challenges in port scheduling focus on how to best allocate resources to port visits.
Dropboard's scheduling algorithms can take all necessary resources and constraints into account, such as access channels, pilots, tugs, berths, tides etc. and will find a solution for this complex mix of rules.
Reducing berth occupancy and waiting times can be challenging.
Systems Navigator’s unique Smart Scheduling technology advises on berthing, turn-around times and process times, empowering the planner to select optimal arrival slots.
Multiple contracts and a diverse fleet are a challenge when optimizing terminal utilization.
Our algorithms quickly generate ADPs and show the impact of arrival window shifts and vessel cancellations in real-time.
Expertise
Systems Navigator has been implementing planning & scheduling solutions since 2003. In 2010 we started the development of our own (web-based) planning & scheduling platform, which was replaced in 2017 by its successor Dropboard.
Leading companies have embraced Dropboard technology to successfully deploy advanced planning & scheduling technology throughout their enterprise.
