Port of Borg Opts for a Combined Port and Terminal Operating System from Grieg Connect

Technology

Grieg Connect has entered into an agreement with the Port of Borg in Fredrikstad to deliver a combined port and terminal operating system (TOS). The system will simplify workflows to ensure efficient port calls, gate handling, and container moves.

Port of Borg is the second largest port in the Oslo Fjord and Norway’s largest mixed cargo terminal. Having in place a seamless system for everyday operations is important for terminal manager Kenneth Mathisen

– The modules from Grieg Connect are a good choice for us. Together, they form a whole that streamline our handling of port calls, gate flows and the daily operation of the container terminal. Connect also has an industrial, long-term owner, which means predictability for us. A system that fits together means increased competitiveness for our port and terminal operations.

The delivery includes the container terminal system with a gate module named Terminal, the port security and ISPS solution, Security, and the port management information system Port. For access control and camera functionality, Neowit will deliver a modern cloud-based solution integrated with Grieg’s modules. For Grieg Connect, the agreement with Port of Borg is important:

– Port of Borg is building a modern, digital foundation for its customers and co-operation partners, which will only become more important in order to be attractive in the future. By choosing a complete system from container operations to gate and port calls, they will experience a better flow of information and a common situational picture. This will provide a good basis for decision-making Dan Steinnes, Head of Sales, Grieg Connect
