Surikat announced on Monday (Jan09) that TSG Terminal UK has chosen Surikat to supply them with a SaaS TOS system to help digitalise their LOLO terminal operations.

TSG Terminal signs with Surikat for a new LOLO TOS solution

TSG Terminal Ltd is part of the Swedish Thor Svecon Group, who also has its own shipping line, Sun Lines. In Autumn of 2022 TSG Terminal, based in King George’s Dock in Hull, signed a multi year agreement with Surikat to supply them with the Lynx TOS.

Lynx will help TSG by digitalising their terminal operations for container handling, increasing operational efficiency through yard management, improving transparency with real-time views of all inventory on the terminal, and less manual handling of customs via an integration to Port Community System, Destin8.

The planning of TSG’s yard for all export and import units, means hauliers and staff can simply and easily locate the units for pick-ups and loading. Real time dashboards and reports, provide an accurate overview of what’s in the terminal at any one time and keep track of dwell times for demurrage charges, as well as providing automated reporting on loading, unloading and inventory of ‘empties’ for one of their main customers, P&O Ferries. TSG will also have a direct integration to Destin8, to digitalise all the customs holds and releases of units passing through the terminal.

“We’re delighted to welcome TSG Terminal to our expanding family of maritime customers. We’re particularly pleased to be working with TSG as our first container-only terminal for short sea shipping. We see great potential for Lynx to help with day to day operations, and our implementation team is well underway with the project. We very much appreciate TSG’s confidence in Surikat and Lynx, and we look forward to a long and prosperous collaboration”. Says Andreas Karlsson, CEO of Surikat, AB.

“I’m very happy to have started this journey with Surikat, and for the good cooperation and support during the past year. We’re really looking forward to implementing the new TOS next year and working together to make big steps forward in our IT development. The TOS system will make a big difference to our customers, keeping proper track of all units, digitalizing customs handling. And when we implement the new terminal layout, we can make full use of Lynx, even adding in automated gates,” says Thomas Byran, Managing Director of TSG Terminal UK.
