Embracing The Digital Age

Anamika Talwaria examines the case for going digital, and the barriers terminal CISOs have to overcome to modernise their sites For many storage terminal facilities, digitalisation and automation are an inevitable future. Such traditional workforces can be resistant to change – especially to processes that are highly regulated and fine-tuned. But stepping into the digital world can bring a raft of benefits; solving workforce challenges while improving efficiency, safety and sustainability – and it can sometimes be the best way to ensure your terminal is complying with environmental regulations. Improving Efficiency ‘Terminal digitalisation and automation provide multifaceted solutions that significantly enhance operational efficiency and resilience,’ explains Dominic Baula, managing director at QADworks. ‘By streamlining workflows, reducing manual processes, and offering real-time visibility across all aspects of terminal operations, digitalisation enables more informed decisions, reduces human error, and significantly streamlines operations.’ Terminals that still rely on time- consuming and error-prone manual work processes suffer from inefficiency, suboptimal...
