The company will supply the subsidiaries of Genesee & Wyoming (G&W), UK’s largest intermodal rail freight provider, with its terminal operating system (TOS) solutions. G&W will deploy the Intermodal Pro TOS and Traffic Control equipment dispatch system across its network of rail and container terminals.

It will integrate with third-party systems including gate management and automation, container sales, maintenance and repair functionality, as well as support of a customer web portal. Tideworks will provide all necessary implementation services and user training.

Furthermore, the system will enable Advent Intermodal Solutions' cloud-based terminal software, including its community portal, pregate vehicle booking system and equipment manager, to also be implemented.

Chris Lawrenson, Terminal Managing Director, UK/Europe Region, G&W, said,  "We value the flexibility of Tideworks' solutions to meet our needs as our network of facilities and TOS requirements have evolved. Tideworks has helped us advance our operations, and we're excited to further modernize our terminals with Tideworks' intermodal solutions."

Thomas Rucker, President, Tideworks, added, "Freightliner and Pentalver play a vital role in the UK intermodal market, and the integration of our dynamic intermodal offerings will enhance their operations in a competitive industry."
