OASIS
OASIS has been customized to serve the logistical needs of intermodal ramps throughout the United States and Canada. This comprehensive system currently handles more that 14 million lifts and 25 million gate moves a year.
OASIS operated terminals experience monetary saving and improved efficiency, reducing operating expenses by over $45,000,000 annually. Benefits of the OASIS system include:
Reduced Clerical and Supervisory Costs
- Computer-managed load planning and automatic preparation of associated word orders allow yards to process substantially higher volumes without additional personnel
- Paperless computer-aided management significantly reduces clerical and supervisory overtime costs
Reduced Lift Costs
- Providing grounding rimes and drop-off/pick-up locations dramatically reduces dwell-time
- Automatically locating and assigning units to the most efficient parking locations reduces intra-facility movement
- Computer-aided work order and chassis management reduces the number of unit rehandlings, container groundings and flips
- Using existing facilities reduces near-term capital expansion requirements
Improved Throughput
- Providing specific unit locations trackside and in parking areas improves hostler, packer and crane productivity and efficiency
- Better coordination of the multiple resource work orders required during COFC operations utilizes hostlers, packers and cranes more efficiently throughout the yard
- Computer-managed load planning optimizes railcar slot and hitch utilization
- Accurately tracking empty trailer inventories enhances utilization
Customer Service
- Supply and demand forecasting allows better management of chassis pools
- Increased management of unloading priorities improves terminal service at unit destination
- Sophisticated computer-managed load planning reduces the chances of loading errors
- Real-time work order reporting provides users with a minute-by-minute detailed account of all activities
Recent studies at OASIS managed facilities found dwell-times reduced by an average of 10 minutes per visit.
