In February, Red Hook deployed Tideworks’ integrated suite of TOS solutions, including the Mainsail Terminal Management System, Spinnaker Planning Management System, and Forecast by Tideworks.
TOS is sold as software as a service, which Tideworks President Michael Schwank says “requires minimal capital expenditure on the part of the customer to get up and running quickly.”
The servers and IT infrastructure supporting TOS are hosted at Tideworks’ data center in western Washington. Red Hook accesses the software via the Internet and pays a monthly fee.
Red Hook Container Terminal is a 65.6-acre facility that handles bulk, breakbulk, and containerized cargoes. In addition to its facility in in Brooklyn, N.Y., the software is also in use at Red Hook’s property in Port Newark, N.J.
“Red Hook is our first TOS customer in the New York-New Jersey harbor,” Schwank said. “We are extremely pleased to add Red Hook to our expanding list of dynamic terminals using Tideworks.”
