Improving Port Operations with IBM Maximo
Port Authorities need to manage diverse assets, including shipping vessels, vehicle fleets, warehouse machinery, and equipment for handling cargo. Starboard Consulting helps ports leverage IBM Maximo to maintain, monitor, and optimize critical assets that keep operations moving efficiently.
Overcoming Port Authority Challenges
Increases in global trade have pressured shipping ports to expand to handle additional congestion. To accommodate the demands of increasing cargo volumes, Port Authorities need to gain real-time asset intelligence and visibility into operations to make crucial decisions about acquisitions and maritime asset management, maintenance, and decommissioning.
The effort Port Authorities make to enhance their asset management are challenged by the constraints of limited workforce and maintenance resources, as well as an aging infrastructure. Ports need reliable equipment to avoid unplanned downtime that would interrupt the supply chain. Port Authorities must also meet regulatory and safety compliance requirements while expanding their operations.
Starboard Consulting provides digital asset management through IBM Maximo, enabling Port Authorities to overcome these operational challenges and meet the performance requirements of global trade through predictive maintenance, inspection tracking, and management of asset lifecycle, work orders, and inventory.
