Mainpac’s EAM saves money for port operator

Ports America is the largest container terminal operator and the stevedoring service provider in the United States, operating in more than 42 ports and 80 locations. Their operations also include container, bulk, breakbulk, military, project, auto/RoRo, cruise and intermodal.

Ports America as a container terminal is very asset heavy enterprise and managing all these assets effectively and efficiently is critical. To that end, Ports of America was seeking a right solution partner for their Enterprise Asset Management.

Ports America realized they need to be operating all their fixed and mobile assets seamlessly in the cost efficient way, ensuring each container is picked up and then being transitioned either into storage or taken out of the gates of the port to attend destinations as quickly as possible. In regards to maintaining those assets, they needed a system which ensures compliance over the safety and operational viability of the asset.

“We had the greatest degree of confidence in the Mainpac, both in terms of their familiarity inside the knowledge about our industry and have ability and the willingness to develop a true strategic partnership with customers”.

To get Ports America started, Mainpac began carefully inspecting their sites and equipment, ensuring asset management solutions are tailored for their specific needs.
Mainpac then integrated Mainpac EAM with Mainpac Mobility EAM, an additional module for field based staff for automation and productivity.
Mainpac EAM system was also seamlessly integrated with Oracle and other 3 party systems used by Ports America.

A launch of Mainpac Enterprise asset management products was successfully implemented and was met with great satisfaction from our client end-users. Ports America can now operate all their equipment seamlessly in the cost efficient way, improving the customer service.
