Section factor

A good section means that we do not compromise and did not mix container of different section factor in a slots.

The whole cycle of mixing one container will lead to continuous mixing with others , and the only way to prevent this is to maintain this kind of non mixing section

Yard Scheduler

The purpose of this scheduler is to control the requirement for yard spaces as based on Proforma time for each services.
Each scheduler will be automatic activated at given time and deactivate after that

Example : AE21 at block 15H , the allocation will be activated to receive containers from SAT 00:00 till TUE 00:00
Hence it would need a discipline to use the area allocate during the date/time given only and not to use it when its being de activated

By default all time have being set to start time 00:00 and end time 00:00
( If found the schedule not being updated when the right time come , adjust the start time to 00:01 or vice versa )

Mirrow Crane Requirement to Yard layout

In another bid to continuously challenge the complexity of the operations , A selected service have being put as a trial run in order to further boast the productivity. This is the first set up and we shall tune up as the process progressively build up

The objective of this trial run is to reflect as much as possible a supply and demand from each yard block to each cranes
This first set up is to provide at least the minimum requirement for each cranes at specific blocks

Service : SW
Each Setup will go by specific slot per Equipment type and per POD , each identified below blocks have a specific slots for each cranes requirement
Identified blocks as below :

Block 18A and 18E ~ for all boxes meant for Forward Crane
Block 17E and 17B ~ for all boxes meant for middle Crane1
Block 18C and 16B ~ for all boxes meant for middle Crane2
Block 18A and 108E ~ for all boxes meant for Aft Crane

Another setup is on the pairing of reefers and dry
A selected slots at block 14K for each POD have being created
With this all SAW reefers should be plan from block 06 and above only!

Apart from 8 blocks above , an extra blocks created in order to widen the choices and creates more flexibility

Discharge Plan

Select container from E.C > Take “Full Containers” Only > Make Recap of ETD vs Group code > Select ETD within 3 days from today > Control Modified > Group code > Update to “x1x” ( This is to prevent boxes going to Dumping block )

Select all in E.C > Make Recap of Services vs Allocation Filter ( in order to divide boxes of for different part of terminal )

After segregating the terminal > Choose the service to be planned > for this example is NZ1
Compulsory Recap and Things to have before start Plan :
Recap of services choose > Make Recap
1. Move Hour vs Yard Block ( This recap is use to monitor the movement while planning and to decide as based on the move hour on how many block required )
2. Section factor vs POW ( This recap use to segregate the section factor and considering from which POW the boxes coming in
3. Yard allocation of the service to be planned
4. The Satellite view of the service in the yard
Factor to consider before start planning the discharge:
The overall view of the service in the yard
The choice of block to discharge the boxes
Always start the plan with section factor with the highest volume
