benefits

Implementing an integrated single system in a container terminal has a significant number of tangible benefits:

Ease of use

The system has a consistent look and feel throughout, giving a shorter training period for staff.

Integrated

You don't need to specify and configure a database, reports or additional software licenses when you use JADE Master Terminal. You don't need to determine how your "back end" DBMS talks to your "front end" planning and yard management tools because everything you need is always there, and it's fully integrated with everything else. You make planning decisions based on knowing all there is to know about your cargo, not a subset that may be out of date.

Reliable

Using a proven high-performance Object Oriented Database, JADE Master Terminal is unique and brings you the very best of scalable, reliable technology running over Windows/Intel hardware platforms.

Automated

A significant number of the daily drudge work is automated in JADE Master Terminal. An example are the numerous reports that have to be prepared and distributed to clients, shipping companies and internal staff for reconciliation purposes following a ship visit. JADE Master Terminal can do all of this work automatically including distribution to email addresses of files in many different formats. An immediate real world saving of 1 person for at least 4 hours per ship visit.

Fully Featured

Automatic planning comes with the system as a standard feature. The options list for JADE Master Terminal is small. All modules ship with the system and access is controlled by license key. You only use what you need, but if you need more it can be enabled and available within 5 minutes to all users of the system with no system downtime.

Nelson

Port Nelson have recently upgraded their existing Teklogix narrow band RDT equipment with state-of-the-art heavily ruggedized laptops running the Jade Smart Thin Client Jade Master Terminal application using Telecom's CDMA cellphone cellular network for communications to and from the devices.

Geoff Shepard from Port Nelson states they are extremely impressed with the minimal bandwidth being used by the JMT application's smart forms which are all touch-screen high definition colour units mounted in the terminal's fork lift machinery, with bandwidth consumption well under expectations making this a very cost-effective option to maintaining your own 802.11 or narrow band radio data network. In addition, because the system is using cellular encrypted telephone technology the signals are completely unaffected by steel structures, the radio network is no longer Port Nelson's responsibility.

Feedback from the machinery drivers' is overwhelmingly positive, with workshops held at the port between staff and JMT developers to determine the optimum screen layouts that fitted how they actually do their job.

We have confirmed new customers in Europe, USA and Australia ... more information on this exciting news will be posted shortly.
