UnitedBPA solutions independently detect anticipated conflicts in terminal infrastructure use (e.g. jetties, line sections) that may arise due to deviations in planning data (e.g. the delayed arrival of a ship).
The required information is taken from various sources (that, at present, are often not linked to each other), prompting measures to be automatically taken and all relevant parties to be informed. In the example involving the use of a jetty, this leads to a new, valid plan to be prepared and the ship’s captain and customer to be informed accordingly.

UnitedBPA solutions process the data from autonomous functional units used in high-risk areas (robots or monitoring equipment) to automatically prompt the best possible response based on this information – in combination with the operational context available in the terminal management system. One example is a controlled shutdown of parts of a facility and the rerouting of activities that have already been planned to alternative facilities.

The supply and demand of energy sources are heavily influenced by geopolitical events and other global occurrences such as natural catastrophes. A UnitedBPA solution categorizes and contextualizes relevant news from various sources and initiates suitable stabilization and safeguarding measures for a company’s operations. Example: limiting maximum daily pick-up quantities, actively informing a customer about anticipated logistics bottlenecks, and prioritizing certain activities over others.

By providing a constant comparison of target and actual tank stock and checking inventory changes against underlying operational plans, this enables potential leakages and faulty pumping operations to be detected as soon as possible and suitable measures to be taken (e.g. halting a product flow). Deviations to set tolerances can be automatically adjusted (such as daily) by making entry corrections (gains/losses), and the relevant reporting system can then be activated.
