Navis Express® Terminal Operating System
Achieve Operating Efficiencies

Navis Express® terminal operating system (TOS) optimizes productivity by managing and maintaining terminal business transactions, data processing and accurately recording and invoicing all transactions and services. Express TOS automates your bookings, billing, data exchange and reporting functions, all while capturing a complete history of all transactions and work. Dynamic reporting capabilities put key information at the terminal managers' fingertips, enabling them to track performance, improve customer service, and increase profitability.

There are many advantages to adopting Navis Express, but perhaps one of the most valuable is that it has been designed as the ideal complement to Navis™ SPARCS. By implementing Navis Express, clients unlock capabilities in Navis SPARCS that are unavailable with any other host database. Navis Express will:

  • Track the complete detailed history of every container movement generated in Navis SPARCS.
  • Enable two-way updating of vessel and berth schedules.
  • Provide greater visibility of data at the Navis SPARCS planning level.

When implemented together, Navis Express and Navis SPARCS provide the complete terminal solution for real-time planning, control and information management. And by supporting any level of automation—from basic to advanced—Navis Express and Navis SPARCS make integrated gate-to-quay automation a reality.
