Evergreen Marine Corp has signed a multiyear subscription agreement to use Navis’ StowMan Control Center and Distributed Services and Vessel Pool to optimise its stowage operations.
“With the ever increasing complexity in the seaborne trade and the accelerated needs for larger volumes of cargo on ships, it is of utmost importance for us to find a balance between capacity maximisation and safe vessel operations in daily and in extraordinary situations,” said Captain Y.S. Hwang, Deputy Senior VP Operation Department at Evergreen.
“With the Navis Stowage Planning solution we are able to save time and costs by providing a fully integrated tool for more efficient and flexible operations to our central planner teams and their global collaboration.”
StowMan uses data and calculations from the onboard Navis loading computer to provide an integrated stowage system. It can operate as a stand-alone tool or scaled into a connected client-server setup, while maintaining offline planning capabilities.
“The challenging situations that we have seen at sea in the past few months require a new approach to marine cargo transportation in order to address the variety of demands that ocean carriers are facing,” said Ajay Bharadwaj, Senior Director Product Management at Navis.
“The Navis stowage solution has been set up to help liners focus on dynamic, efficient and profitable operations while providing the safest sailing possible for their vessels.”
