Real-time Container Information

• Sort containers by any attribute combination, including equipment type and size, hazardous class, reefer temperature, stowage violations, point of loading and discharge, and final destination.
• Receive automatic updates of stability calculations each time the plan is changed.

Powerful Graphic Tools

• Easy-to-use graphical user interface with drop-down menus and drag and drop graphic images.
• Assign each container a unique visual identity to represent attributes such as container size, weight group, content, discharge port, load port, and final destination.
• Pop-up views provide details such as container weight, special handling instructions, reefer and hazardous information.

Ship Editor

• Define and build any size and type of vessel.
• Quickly and easily create, define, and configure a vessel’s bays and decks, including allowed cargo parameters and cargo restrictions, along with stability, stress, and strength restrictions.
• Import or export ship geometry data via EDI and enter data for lashing calculations and full stability and strength calculations.

Multi-port Planning

• Simultaneously view stowage at multiple ports of discharge in multiple views without swapping files.
• Make changes directly in any graphic view and immediately see the impact on stowage at any number of future ports.

Crane-split Analysis

• Manage and view crane productivity, calculate rough crane split based on stow plan, and generate crane reports for the terminal.

Open Architecture

• Supports "Plug=in" modules created by customers or NavisReady third parties to extend capabilities and/or interface with other systems.
• Plug-ins can add specialized calculations for lashing, stability, strength, stevedoring cost estimation, and more.

Reports, Recaps and Lists

• Standard reports include: stow plan, scan plan, stability, cargo weights, port-to-port, hatch summary, recap, and non-cargo cargo.
• Define custom reports based on attributes such as POD, empty containers, reefers, or hazardous materials.
• Output reports, recaps and lists to pdf or fax directly from PowerStow.

Detailed Error Checking

• Automatic error checking indicates stowage errors and inefficiencies such as: equipment-type compatibility for active refrigerated containers, stack height and weight violations, overstows, and dangerous and hazardous handling violations.
• Real-time interactive alerts, messages, and warning symbols for lashing, strength, and stability errors.

Integrated hazardous cargo segregation tools

• Built in segregation checking in full accordance with IMDG Code.
• Alerts for hazardous stowage prohibition based on pre-defined ship specifications.

Comprehensive EDI support

• EDI formats include UN/EDIFACT standards: BAPLIE, MOVINS, COPRAR, TANSTA, and ANZECS, STIF, and DANCARG
