In traditional operations, each asset is dedicated to a single quay crane and dispatched on a first-come-first-served basis according to a move sequence, traveling laden in one direction and returning empty in the other. This inefficient method of operation creates excessive demand for equipment in order to match yard capacity to the productivity level required at the quay.

Prime Route pools straddle carriers and terminal tractors across a wide array of work assignments breaking them up into discrete “job-step” components, allowing for optimal, real-time dispatching of equipment to the work available. As a result, fewer straddle carriers and tractors are required to do the same amount of work while maintaining productivity, thereby lowering capital investments and variable costs for labour, fuel and maintenance.

Together with TBA and APMT we’ve developed this game so the player van experience the benefits of the Prime Route system.

Please be aware that this game will not teach you how to use the Prime Route system. Only to give insight in the advantages of Prime Route compared to traditional working. Please note that an account is needed to play this game.

Have fun playing and good luck!
