Terminal
Operators
For operators of bulk terminals servicing a range of producers connected with large complex bulk haulage rail networks
 
Maximise system throughput
Simultaneously optimise inbound and outbound operations
Global optimisation
Simultaneously minimise demurrage, maximise throughput and terminal asset utilisation
Contract evaluation
Assess the impact of different contract portfolios on asset utilisation
Operating paradigms
Model dedicated stockpile and/or cargo assembly terminal operations
Complex Scheduling
Simultaneously schedule inbound (load point terminal stockpile) and outbound (terminal stockpile to vessel) operations for bulk haulage rail networks comprising multiple producers, load points and rail haulage providers
 
 
Maximise Profits
Examine the impacts of alternate terminal operating procedures, maintenance regimes, demand profiles and infrastructure upgrades
