Automation has transformed container terminal operations…for some. Today there are only about 72 fully or semi-automated terminals operating, making up less than 9% of the global total. And while most owners and operators can’t afford the investment required to make the leap, they can benefit from one common trait among the safest and most efficient operations in the world.
That something is workflow orchestration, and we think it’s a game changer. At Lynxis, we help marine, rail, and inland terminal operators move beyond isolated tech investments and into solutions that orchestrate both the people and the tech dynamically across gate, crane, and rail nodes. The result? changes become a configuration and not (custom) coding every time your requirements change. This builds operations that can adapt in a flash and recover no matter what comes next.
Why Adaptability Matters More Than Ever
Speed and cost-efficiency were yesterday’s goals. Today, operations and IT leaders are asking:
A dynamically adaptable workflow tied to your innovation investments answers these questions by turning your facility into a responsive, data-rich ecosystem—proactively managed by you, not a cast of reactive vendors.
The Power of Orchestrated Workflows
Orchestration is about connecting the dots across:
Our platform blends technology, infrastructure, and expert services to create highly configurable end-to-end orchestration. While we partner with other tech providers to deliver these solutions, we offer two unique and purpose-built solutions that are critical to creating an adaptable tech-driven environment at your facility.
With the ORCA platform, you can manage multiple operations and all the tech, or entire facilities, remotely—detecting technical issues and resolving exceptions in real-time, before they impact service levels. ORCA helps:
Our upgraded computer vision platform automates the detection, classification and identification of equipment and any special conditions (i.e. damage, HAZ placards, seals, tire treads, etc.) We do it without sensors, using off-the-shelf equipment which saves you up to 40%.
Whether in a billion-dollar terminal or a small depot, it’s critical to establish a highly orchestrated series of workflows to efficiently process the thousands of containers that transit your facility each day. Terminals that move beyond just tech innovations and into orchestration gain:
In short, they gain resilience. And that’s what modern terminal operations demand, no matter the size.
Technology solves tasks. Orchestration leverages tech to create a sustainable, adaptable ecosystem that continues to deliver value for years after a project ends.
Lynxis enables logistics leaders to build adaptive, data-driven terminals that don’t just deliver higher throughput capacity—they’re built to withstand the unexpected. Because real resilience isn’t reactive. It’s orchestrated.
