OPUS Stowage is a vessel stowage planning solution that aims to provide optimized loading/unloading plan for container shipping companies’ efficient container transportation. It provides stowage data management, including the request for loading work connected to the terminal.
Stowage planning engine developed based on accumulated stowage experience and analysis of cargo pattern information creates and provides the optimized stowage plan, including core factors such as Space Utility, Vessel Stability, Weight Distribution, and Ballast Calculation automatically. Also, the planner can execute loading planning work to maximize work productivity and efficiency under the constraint condition related to planning.
OPUS Stowage’s functions have been developed on a Java platform based on a centralized database for high scalability and minimized maintenance costs. It is a next-generation stowage planning solution to maximize productivity in loading/unloading and work efficiency and to increase the profitability of shipping carriers through quantification and optimization of planning work.
Experience Positive Outcomes
-
- Share Stowage Plan in Real Time
-
Regardless of the location, it is possible to share the stowage plan in real-time by storing all the data in a centralized database.
-
- Support the Efficient Decision Making
