Emerson launches next-generation terminal management software

Emerson Automation Solutions has launched TerminalManager, a next-generation software that helps to manage all terminal operational and commercial activity.

TerminalManager helps operators streamline the loading processes, achieve greater connectivity to customer needs, and close the books faster by providing a single software platform to manage the entire terminal business process.

Terminal operators face several challenges to remain profitable in a complex market environment.

Terminal operators in both the oil and gas and chemical and refining industries need to maximise the throughput of the terminal in order to remain as key suppliers to customers and be financially successful.

The software offers a web-based portal that enables terminal operators to manage customer contracts and orders, to efficiently plan and execute the loading operations. It also helps in managing book and physical inventory, charging for services, and billing activity back to the customer.

Emerson remote automation solutions business general manager Pedro D’Ascola said: “With the release of TerminalManager, we continue to offer new ways for our customers to improve the efficiency of their operations, not just for loading and unloading operations but for the terminal business management process as well.

“TerminalManager is built not only to move products but to efficiently move information, which optimises the order to cash cycle for the terminal and helps streamline the customer’s supply chain logistics activities.”
