Navis
a part of Cargotec
Corporation
and provider of operational technologies and services
that unlock greater performance and efficiency for the world’s leading
organizations across the shipping supply chain, today announced the
launch of Navis
360 Managed Services
. Tapping into Navis’ extensive expertise at
container terminals globally, the offering provides subscription-based
services around key areas of TOS success, including monitoring,
upgrades, application management and operational review. These new
services are designed to enhance customers’ experience and long-term
success with N4 and related Navis products.

As part of a more holistic approach to working with terminals, Navis
launched Navis 360 Managed Services with the goal of helping customers
make the most of their terminal investments. By providing a suite of
offsite services at attractive and predictable pricing, Navis 360
Managed Services provide valuable support for N4 TOS implementations,
terminal IT Infrastructure management and business intelligence and
analytics. Customers can leverage Navis’ global expertise and technology
resources, freeing up limited onsite resources to focus on the business
of running their terminals.

“With Navis’ many years of experience at virtually all types of
container terminal operations around the globe, we’ve seen it all and
have done it all—from the routine to the seemingly impossible. While
some terminals have extensive teams dedicated to TOS implementations and
ongoing TOS management and optimization, many others do not. Navis 360
Managed Services was developed for customers with a strong desire and/or
need to tap more deeply into Navis’ expertise and staffing resources to
ensure they are getting the most from their terminal investments,” said
Christian Weinbrenner, Vice President Global Professional Services at
Navis.

Through Navis Enterprise Services and Navis 360 Managed Services,
terminals can save money by offloading routine IT and operations tasks
to Navis, filling staffing gaps for difficult-to-find IT jobs, so
terminal employees can focus on more strategic work. Additionally, Navis
360 Managed Services will allow terminals to take advantage of Navis’
expertise with access to experts, product management and engineering
teams, and will allow customers to use monitoring, diagnostic and
automated testing tools not available elsewhere.

Offerings within Navis 360 Managed Services include:

  • Monitoring and Diagnostics – Through remote monitoring of N4
    systems and related environments, Managed Services proactively
    diagnose, alert customers and resolve potential problems through log
    review and diagnosis. Monitored areas include N4 databases, N4
    services, overall IT Infrastructure, and key N4 TOS subsystems.
  • Update and Patch Services – Navis Upgrade Managed Services
    include test review, automation, and execution, groovy extension
    validation, stress testing and other support to help make upgrades
    successful.
  • Application Management – For customers needing 2nd level
    support for their N4 TOS, EDI administration, configuration
    management, or reports and BI management, Navis provides predictable
    and repeatable resources to help complement onsite capabilities.

Future plans for the service include an N4 application service for
database services and operations monitoring for analysis and tuning.
