Terminal Resource Manager, for planning on-shore and off-shore resources in port

Assign resources to each vessel planned for your terminal or port, and resources per shift planned for gangs, and get an overview of all resources demanded for per time slot over the next days or weeks, which automatically is recalculated as ETA/ETDs are adjusted.

Each terminal or port operator define the resources and resource types themselves, either using generic descriptions or specific descriptions f.ex. for specific quay cranes, car ramps.

The daily or weekly resource summary across all terminal or port is distributed to internal departments for detailed planning and management, or to external sub-contractors or partners.

e-Schedules - first solution in ARL Commercial e-Business Suite

In October 2007 ARL released their e-schedule platform; the first in a series of commercial solutions for the transport industry. e-Schedules, a solution hosted on the arl-shipping.com platform, allows a provider of a transport service to publish his schedule on the internet. The schedule is generated on the fly by the platform based on parameters entered by the transport provider like services start & end date, daily or weekly pattern, transit time per service point and closing & availability cut-off.

e-Schedule entails that the transport provider's customer ask for a departure or arrival matching specific requirements, rather than the transport provider to 'push' their in-house schedule to their customers.

The front office e-Schedule request is imbedded in the transport providers own web-site, powered by arl-shipping.com.
