Kaleris Launches Advanced Optimization Solutions at TOC Europe 2025-Solution set optimizes container handling equipment across waterside, landside and yard operations- ATLANTA, June 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kaleris, a global provider of leading supply chain execution software, today announced new Advanced Optimization solutions that complement its N4 terminal operating system. The solutions work together to optimize scheduling and dispatch across manned RTGs, automated RTGs, and terminal trucks, resulting in faster job assignments, shorter cycle times and safer work environments. Together, the solutions empower terminals to manage their container handling equipment (CHE) more effectively and achieve higher productivity with their current fleet. Port of Tanjung Pelepas (PTP), Malaysia’s largest transshipment hub, pioneered using RTG-O and was also the first terminal in the world to implement the new Terminal Truck Optimization (TT-O) solution. When PTP started using TT-O to strategically plan truck movements across multiple zones, drivers received their job assignments 44% faster, leading to a 13% reduction in truck cycle time. PTP’s skilled workforce leveraged this acceleration to set a new record in quayside moves in a single 12-hour shift. Within two months of deployment, PTP experienced a 14% improvement in truck productivity, a 20% increase in laden truck travel, a 20% reduction in quay crane waiting time, and a 7% reduction in fuel consumption. Joe Schofield, Chief Operations Officer at PTP, said, “Kaleris’s new optimization solutions are a powerful combination for advancing terminal efficiency. At PTP, we work to continuously evaluate how we can improve our performance to best serve our customers. With RTG-O and TT-O working in tandem, we can precisely plan our resources and strategically make operational decisions. Having a real-time view of both our landside and waterside CHE with N4 empowers us to minimize downtime and maximize productivity. The solutions complement each other, amplifying operational gains across our fleet and yard. We look forward to continuing our work with Kaleris to drive innovation through technology that provides real-world value.” Augmenting the optimization advancements available through RTG-O and TT-O, Kaleris also supports customers in advancing their data strategy as a foundation for continuous improvement. Terminals can utilize Execution & Visibility Platform solutions, such as OpsView and Analytics, to measure the business value of operational improvements delivered through the Advanced Optimization suite. RTG-O, RTG-A and TT-O may be deployed and tested in sections as yard cranes and terminal tractors are integrated into a fleet.  Media Contact: Suzy Swindle, [email protected]
