Terminal Logistics

Industry Challenges:

Secure movement
When a ship, truck or railcar arrives, users must ensure that it is registered, scheduled and authorized to perform the required task. In addition, ships must meet port and docking requirements and trucks must have certified drivers.

Access site
Sites manage the movement and storage of many different kinds of potentially dangerous materials every day. With constant material comings and goings, site management must monitor who is in their area at all times for security purposes.

Authorize users
Most people have authorization to be in certain areas, yet many people with different levels of security clearance come and go from sites each day. Sites require controls that allow only authorized users to work with systems that run the site. For security purposes, sites must secure their practices and ensure that unauthorized users do not have access.

Train users
All sites must make sure their users are up-to-date on training schedules and are able to follow all procedures safely and securely.

 

How Syncade Helps:

Syncade Terminal Logistics can effectively manage and adapt your logistics operations to address these site security challenges:

  • Entry/Exit Authentication
  • Loadrack/Jetty Access Control
  • Business Permissives
  • Allocation Control
  • Order Management
  • Throughput Reporting
  • Meter Totalizer Reporting
  • Alarm Reporting
