About our presentation and speakers:
On April 2, 2025, we will have a presentation at the Port of the Future Conference in Houston on “Exposing Unproductive Time In Port Visits”.
Addressing inefficiencies and waste in port calls is a frequent discussion, but what do these challenges truly look like in practice? Teqplay will present real examples of a vessel’s arrival and departure process into ports, and visualize the points where time and resources are wasted:
- Waiting during anchoring because the terminal is occupied.
- Waiting again because the gangs aren’t available
- Drifting during shifting for over x hours, unable to perform cargo operations or sail
- Unable to depart because the bunker set is still alongside.
It’s not just the vessel’s time that’s wasted – terminal resources are tied up as well, preventing smooth cargo operations. Once you have identified the inefficiencies you can start the improvement process to eliminate.
Léon Gommans co-founded Teqplay with the mission to expose & eliminate waste and risk in the maritime industry, by making data actionable and fostering collaboration. With Léon’s strong leadership, the Teqplay team has successfully digitized port call processes and developed digital twin technology that offers global vessel movement visibility, including port context and processes.
Léon believes that through combining technology, data, and knowledge of the maritime world, we can move the industry forward, increase sustainability, and continuously improve.
Daan Spikker leads product development at Teqplay, specializing in process optimization within terminals and maritime supply chains through data-driven improvements. A strong advocate for collaborative optimization, Daan emphasizes the importance of incorporating work-floor experience early in the process. He believes data must always be paired with context to deliver value to customers.
