- Details
MILAHA, previously known as Qatar Navigation, is to launch an electronic data base at Doha Port in a changeover from its current paper-based system which manages 400,000 TEU movements a year.
Since Milaha took over management in February 2011, it selected Jade JMT software at a cost of QAR19 million (US$5.21 million) and plans to go live this quarter, said port services vice president Alan Middleton.
"The easy configuration and scalability of JMT supports our efforts to increase efficiencies, optimise processes and manage costs as we bring Doha Port operations to the best worldwide standards," said Mr Middleton, reported the Gulf Times.
Qatar expects cargo growth in the million tonnes resulting from multibillion dollar infrastructure projects which include new hotels, rapid rail and construction of stadiums in the lead up to the world's largest sporting event, the Dubai World Cup 2013.
