Recall a time when you had to rely on someone else’s schedule. It’s often an adjustment because everyone has their own system of organizing data – whether it’s personal or company preference. That’s why it’s imperative that our users can tailor their berth plans exactly how they envision. In this post, we highlight how OAS Shipment Planner (Berth Planning) configurations can reflect diverse aesthetic and informational preferences to powerfully streamline operational efficiency.
OAS Shipment Planner (Berth Planning) is a planning, scheduling, and visualization software that empowers operators to streamline berth activity, improve operational visibility, and mitigate demurrage costs. As a richly configurable solution, berth schedulers can intuitively map vessel schedules and berth activities for maximum process efficiency.
Aesthetic Preferences
Users can flexibly adjust colors, outlining, and icons to best reflect personal, or organizational preferences in the Gantt visualizations. These stylistically highlighted events provide a bird’s eye view for berth schedulers, helping them swiftly discern priority levels and act based on priorities such as incoming products, ship status, estimated demurrages, and much more. Aligned, collaborative efforts within the team are made easier when key information is presented in a digestible manner.

Informational Preferences
Within the Gantt view, users can also opt for a compact or expanded display of vessel shipment details. From details such as quantity, vessel name, ETA, DWT, confirmation status, and much more, users have the freedom to show as much or little as needed to drive efficient information sharing. Additionally, users also have the functionality to add shipment-specific remarks, with explanations in plain sight to streamline workflows and communication between key personnel.
OAS Shipment Planner (Berth Planning) also provides a Jetty view, featuring a pictorial, real-time representation of scheduled events.
When implemented, these small, but mighty configurations truly have the potential to boost operational agility and efficiency. With a system that blends aesthetic and informational preferences, users can fine-tune their berth schedules to suit their viewing needs, while streamlining communication and promoting smooth teamwork.
