The company has developed a computer-based Port Asset Management System that is currently used by more than 300 clients worldwide. The system includes an asset inventory, based on maps and photographs, as well as analysis and reporting software to help infrastructure managers to optimise their decision-making.
We also have extensive experience in computer simulation studies that model the real-life operation of complex maritime facilities. These studies can identify bottlenecks that may be restricting capacity, and indicate where to direct investment to improve efficiency.
