DATA INGESTION
Every ops system in one normalized stream
TOS moves, gate transactions, radio calls, and WhatsApp threads pulled in and normalized into a clean, structured stream your CMMS and your team can act on. Not a replacement, an interpreter.
CONTAINER TERMINALS AND MARINE PORTS
Personalized software to run your terminal operations.
Production-grade ops software that ingests and normalizes the equipment and operations data your terminal runs on. Plugs into Navis, IBM Maximo, CyberLogitec, and your gate operating system. We build it. We deploy it. You pay only after it goes live.
- Built to fit your terminal
- Live in weeks, not quarters
- Pay only when it works
THE STATE OF PORT OPERATIONS DATA
Most terminals are running on data that is hours old.
In Tideworks' and Port Technology International's 2025 global survey of 121 marine terminal professionals, the gap between what terminals know and what is actually happening on the yard is stark.
58%
still rely on manual data practices
45%
lack real-time visibility
30%
use real-time analytics, despite 86% having a TOS in place

CAPABILITIES FOR CONTAINER TERMINALS
What changes in your operation, week one.
Each capability runs on top of your existing TOS, gate operating system, and CMMS. Nothing rip-and-replace. Nothing your yard staff or technicians have to learn.
YARD COORDINATION
One source of truth for every RTG, STS, and reach stacker
Live equipment state across your container yard. Operations, maintenance, and planning see the same board. No more 'who has what' phone calls between bays.
GATE FLOW
Turn the gate from a queue into a throughput KPI
Cut average truck turnaround by tying gate appointments, yard pulls, and inspector capacity to live equipment status. Drivers wait less. Hauliers come back.
EQUIPMENT UPTIME
Catch breakdowns before they hit the schedule
EquipmentOS, the proven backbone underneath, captures every status change as it happens and feeds it back to planners, maintenance, and TOS users at the same time.
SHIFT HANDOVER
Every shift starts with the full picture, not a 30-minute reconstruction
Incoming supervisors get the full picture, not a WhatsApp thread. Active breakdowns, parts on order, deferred maintenance: all live, all current.
WORKS BEYOND CONTAINER
Container-led. Also fits bulk, RoRo, and inland depots
Built for container terminals first because that's where most operations sit, but the platform extends to bulk berths, RoRo ramps, and inland container depots without forking the product.
WHERE TERMINAL OPERATIONS LOSE GROUND
Three breakdowns that compound every shift.
The Equipment Count Problem
Gang planners need an accurate equipment count. In most terminals, that count comes from a yard walk, a radio check, or a WhatsApp message. By the time it reaches the planning desk, it is 40 minutes old.
"One person tells me 90 tractors are ready. Another says 100. I'm making gang allocations on a number nobody can verify in real time."
Terminal Operations Manager
The Maintenance Black Hole
A crane goes down mid-vessel. The mechanic radios the status and starts hunting parts. For the next 4 to 12 hours, only the repair crew knows what is happening. The CMMS entry comes at end of shift, if at all.
"We have no single place where I can see what is broken, who is working on it, and what is blocking the repair. I find out when the crane comes back online."
Maintenance Manager
The Shift Handover Gap
Shift handovers are verbal and fast. Active breakdowns, parts on order, and deferred maintenance live in the outgoing supervisor's head and a WhatsApp thread. The incoming shift restarts from partial information every time.
"The incoming shift supervisor spends the first 30 minutes of every shift figuring out what's actually available. That's 30 minutes of decisions made on assumptions."
COO, Container Terminal
WHAT OPSIMA SHOWS OPERATIONS
A live equipment status board built from field communication.
Every status update sent over WhatsApp, radio, or email becomes a tile on this board. Operations knows what is available right now: not what was available an hour ago.

PAIN TO OUTCOME
What changes when operations and maintenance share one source of truth.
Gang planners allocate equipment based on counts that are 30-60 minutes old
Equipment availability reflects actual yard status, updated from field communication in real time
A crane breaks down during vessel operations and nobody outside the repair crew knows the status
Live breakdown status visible to operations, maintenance, and planning the moment it is reported
Shift handover takes 30 minutes of verbal briefing and is still incomplete
Incoming shift supervisor sees every active breakdown, repair-in-progress, and deferred maintenance item on one live board
MTTR and availability KPIs are compiled at month-end from incomplete CMMS entries
MTTR, MTBF, and equipment availability are calculated continuously from captured field communication
The CMMS work order reflects what the coordinator assumed happened, not what the technician actually did
Work orders are structured from the technician's own WhatsApp messages: timestamps, parts, and root cause captured at the moment of communication
PM compliance is tracked against a calendar, not actual running hours
PM triggers fire on actual meter readings reported through field communication, not assumptions
THE SHIFT HANDOVER GAP
The incoming shift supervisor spends the first 30 minutes figuring out what's actually available.
Active breakdowns, parts on order, and deferred maintenance live in the outgoing supervisor's head and a WhatsApp thread. Opsima makes the handover instant.

FAQ
Questions from operations and maintenance teams
Does Opsima replace our TOS or our gate operating system?
No. Your TOS runs the yard. Your gate operating system runs the gate. Your CMMS runs maintenance. Opsima is the layer that ingests from all of them, normalizes the equipment and operations data your team acts on, and writes structured records back where they belong. It doesn't replace any of them.
What does "personalized software" actually mean for a terminal?
It means the product you go live on is built for your operation, not configured from a template. Our solution team maps your TOS, your equipment fleet, your gate process, and your shift structure, then builds the workflows your planners, supervisors, and maintenance leads will use every day. Powered by EquipmentOS, the proven backbone underneath. You don't bend your operation to the software. We build the software around your operation.
How long does implementation take, and what does "pay only after it goes live" mean?
Most terminal deployments go live in 4 to 8 weeks from kickoff. Discovery, integration, build, and a pilot shift cycle all sit inside that window. "Pay only after it goes live" means commercial terms trigger on production go-live in your operation, not on contract signature or pilot start. If we can't get it working in your terminal, you don't pay for it.
What equipment and OEMs does EquipmentOS support?
Ship-to-shore cranes (STS), rubber tyred gantries (RTG), rail mounted gantries (RMG, ARMG, ARTG), reach stackers, top picks, empty handlers, terminal tractors, and yard chassis. Multi-OEM environments are standard: Konecranes, Kalmar, Liebherr, Hyster, ZPMC, Cargotec, Sany, and others. Mixed fleets and informal asset naming used by yard staff are recognized automatically.
Can Opsima work for bulk terminals, RoRo, and inland container depots too?
Yes. The platform is container-led because that's where most operations and most search demand sits, but the underlying EquipmentOS layer extends to bulk berths, RoRo ramps, and inland container depots without forking the product. If you run a mixed-mode operation, one Opsima deployment covers all of it. See <a href="/bulk-terminals">bulk terminals</a> for the bulk-led version of this page.
Do you integrate with our gate system, ERP, and existing CMMS?
Yes. Standard integrations include Navis N4 API, CyberLogitec, SAP PM and S/4HANA, Oracle EBS, IBM Maximo, MainPac, and common gate operating systems (OCR, RFID, appointment scheduling). If you have something proprietary or in-house, that's part of the build scope, not a blocker. We map every system that touches the operation during discovery.
What KPIs does Opsima actually improve?
The ones your COO already reports on: berth productivity (GMPH), crane uptime, mean time to repair (MTTR), gate turnaround time, truck turn time, equipment utilization, planned-maintenance compliance, and rehandle rate. We agree the target metrics in discovery, baseline them at kickoff, and report against them shift by shift after go-live. No KPIs is no payment.
