Implico expands software OpenTAS to include packaged products
Implico, an international software and consulting company, has expanded its automation software OpenTAS to include support for packaged products logistics.
Up until now the automation software OpenTAS was an industry solution for refinery shipping specialized in the management of liquid products. Implico now offers customers new possibilities for inventory and the shipping of pallets, blocks, gas and other general cargo.
"Our solution gives companies significantly more possible applications for OpenTAS than before, for instance in gas farms," said Thomas Fahland, Solution Manager Oil & Gas at Implico.
"What is more, OpenTAS can now also benefit companies whose business is partially or entirely run on the basis of general cargo,” added Fahland.
According to a company release, the system can manage the conversion between different packaging units and simplifies production planning. Using OpenTAS, refineries can calculate the quantity of packaged goods that the volume of liquid or gaseous products will yield.
