• Automatically identifies truck/carrier and equipment for the container handling equipment
• Ensures equipments/containers are in the correct position for the cranes
• Provides real-time information for a paperless data transfer (EDT) between operations management and the terminal
• Automatic monitoring and reporting of all container and equipment movements

• Retrieving the container from the stacking lane
• Transporting the containers from one location to another within the yard
• Transferring the containers the loading areas into the ships, or unloading from the ships into the yard.

Part of these objectives are to guarantee good reliable data without operator input, automatically identify the container, provide keyless operation into and out of the stack, Provides driver warnings without manual move selection, prevents the wrong move being carried out.

Through the use of current technologies in communications and information technology, SIPL leads the way to realizing a feasible optimized solution to the inherent complexity of managing a container port system.

• Reduced energy cost per container handled
• Reduced engine emissions of the equipment such as diesel powered cranes
• Increased gross crane utilization
• Lower maintenance and repair costs by improving crane working conditions (i. e., cranes perform fewer working cycles per month and reduced crane handling time of heavy loads)
• Reduced waiting time for vehicles and yard prime movers by reducing the number of unproductive moves.
