Virginia Port Authority CEO and executive director John Reinhart said that as volumes increase, the port must have technology solutions in place that can help plan, manage and forecast operational needs.

“When compared with the current terminal operating system, N4 will provide some very real advantages,” Reinhart said.

“It replaces a 25-year-old legacy system and operationally speaking, N4 will provide real-time visibility across all areas of the operation with short and long-term planning capability with the flexibility to customise features as demand creates.”
