Solvo Europe B.V., the Netherlands
The Hague
The relationship between SOLVO and Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA) – a German logistics and transport company that manages three container terminals in the port of Hamburg: Altenwerder, Burchardkai, and Tollerort – began in 2016 when HHLA daughter company, Hamburg Port Consulting GmbH (HPC), became a strategic partner of SOLVO during the implementation of Solvo.TOS at the port of Hammad (NPP) in Doha, Qatar, a project commissioned by Mwani and IBM Qatar.
In the beginning of November 2018, the official distributor of SOLVO in Europe, Solvo Europe B.V., signed an agreement to implement Solvo.TOS at the Muuga container terminal with HHLA Estonia AS, part of the HHLA group.
At the end of November 2018, the official distributor of SOLVO in Europe, Solvo Europe B.V., completed customization and configuration of Solvo.TOS version 6.x for the Antwerp Euro Terminals (AET) stevedoring company, part of the Belgian Griimaldi Lines group based in Antwerp. A corresponding agreement was signed between the parties involved.
The event was a milestone for SOLVO as it is the first project the company on this scale, implemented at on the biggest terminals in Western Europe.
The new 6.0 version marks a leap forward for SOLVO with marketing director, Daniel Pershin, calling it a “major release” due to new unified system architecture.
“Whereas before we had different systems - one for containers only, another for breakbulk and so on, now we merged two systems into one comprehensive solution that supports all kinds of cargo, such as containers to breakbulk, project cargo, bulk, you name it,” Pershin explained in an interview with Breakbulk Media.
What’s more, the new software also is “completely web-based,” according to Pershin who describes Solvo’s latest TOS platform as now having “service-oriented” focus with the ability to support new modules such as unified vessel stowage planning.
“This new system makes the lives of planners much, much easier,” he adds.
SOLVO took part at the international transport and logistics exhibition BreakBulk Europe 2018, May 29-31.
Breakbulk Europe is the biggest exhibition in Europe dedicated to general cargo logistics. It is an annual event where leading logistics operators, shippers, ports, forwarders, carriers, industry experts, and IT solution providers come under one roof to network, showcase their latest products, and share their experiences.
This year, the event was held for the first time in Germany at the Messe Bremen complex in the city of Bremen.
SOLVO received visitors to its stand along with its exclusive European partner, Solvo Europe B.V., demonstrating its terminal operating system Solvo.TOS 6.0: a unified platform for managing all cargo types and simultaneously tracking, planning and controlling not only various parts of the terminal (port), but also processing various types of cargo including container, general, and Ro-Ro cargo.
The event also included an interview between Daniel Pershin, head of SOLVO marketing, and representatives of BreakBulk Europe organizers. Pershin discussed the prospects for port logistics development and shared insights into the capabilities of Solvo.TOS 6.0.
TOC has long been considered best in class by container terminal operators and their suppliers where port operations, shippers, suppliers, IT solution providers and more come together under one roof. This year’s event will be held at Ahoy Rotterdam, The Netherlands, June 12-14.
SOLVO is proud to once again be taking part this year, following last year’s successful event.

Other topics will also include:
-What factors affect TOS implementation complexity at the multipurpose facilities?
-Specialized container ships, ConRo, on-board ship cranes etc
-Is yard and CHE optimization real needed or is this just a good-to-have fancy feature
-Automated block train identification and tracking
-Block-train scheduling
-Gate optimization: how to save if OCR is just a bit too early to think of?
-STS vs mobile crane optimization efficiency
SOLVO looks forward to seeing you at this year’s TOC Europe in Rotterdam!
April 2-13, 2018, saw SOLVO taking part in a business mission of Russian exporters to Vietnam, which was organized by the Russian Export Center (REC) in association with the Russia’s Ministry of Economic Development and the Ministry of Industry and Trade.
To facilitate the development of trade and economic ties between Russia and Vietnam the mission included over 30 Russian companies from all industries: energy, machine-manufacturing, agriculture, IT, and others.
The main goal of the business mission was to strengthen economic cooperation, promote Russian products and businesses on the Vietnamese market. The event was also coincided with the opening of a Trade house in Ho Chi Minh City and the 28th International multi-industry exhibition Vietnam EXPO 2018 in Hanoi.
Under the auspices of the Russian Export Center, SOLVO company representatives were able to connect with potential partners and clients from various regions of Vietnam and visit Haiphong, the biggest port in northern Vietnam.
Despite the relatively high level of logistics process automation in Vietnam, many local representatives showed keen interest in SOLVO’s products and solutions such as Solvo.TOS and Solvo.WMS in particular, due to their innovative features, accessibility and functionality.
SOLVO would like to thank the Russian Export Center for the ability to take part and help the business mission to Vietnam.
For the 2nd time Solvo will be exhibiting at the biggest international logistics event in South America. This time together with the official sales partner in San Paulo - Prosegur.
Intermodal South America is the leading integrated exhibition and conference event for international trade, logistics, transport and cargo handling in Latin America, offers over 450 exhibitors from all over the world, presenting new products, the latest equipment and technology innovation and a vast conference program, providing the unique opportunity and experience for more than 45 thousand professionals.
Solvo and Prosugur joined forces at the stand No 5-20 to show the latest developments in terminal operating software for ports and contanштук terminals as well as in WMS software that helps boost intralogistics in such environments as DCs, production warehouses, 3PL warehouses.

In 2017, Solvo.TOS ver. 5.0 was successfully implemented at the Murmansk transport affiliate of Nornickel, the biggest producer of Palladium in the world.
In March 2017, Nornickel completed the modernization of its transshipment terminal in Murmansk, which became one of the biggest investment projects for transportation infrastructure development north of the Arctic circle.
The new transport-logistics hub can process 1.5 million tons of container cargo per year. The warehouse zone is 100,000 sq. meters. Berths are equipped with portal cranes with a lift capacity from 40 to 80 tons. The yard uses reachstackers, forklifts and two gantry cranes equipped with lift control system and automatic spreaders capable of lifting containers weighing up to 40 tons.
Terminal processes have been optimized significantly thanks to the implementation of Solvo.TOS, specifically:
This type of automatic made it possible to minimize the number of unproductive moves, optimize CHE usage and human resources, while reducing human error to increase overall productivity.
V.C. Sidorenko, the terminal’s deputy director and head dispatcher, said:
“Among the results of Solvo.TOS implementation, I would like to note the optimization of CHE operations as well as the ability to quickly adjust processes on-the-fly during a shift, thanks to the introduction of the warehouse layout module.”
The given project had to account for the terminal's specifics when implementing Solvo.TOS:
Nornickel is simultaneously the shipper, container line agent, ship owner, cargo owner, and operator of its own train yard. This gives a fully closed production cycle, which had to be accounted for when implementing the terminal operating system;
Besides 20 and 40 foot container, the terminal also uses 10 foot container as well as low half-height 20 foot containers with a height of 1.3 meters. The system was adapted to handle these non-standard sizes;
Solvo.TOS takes into account the specifics at the ship operations area. Portal cranes are used for load handling operations at the berth instead of standard quay cranes. Containerships, which dock at the terminal are also typically non-standard - not with with 40 foot bays, but ice-breaker ships where containers are loaded in the common cargo hold.
All of these specifics are reflected in the cargo handling operations algorithm as well as in the logic for creating automatic tasks by the system. This is exactly why it was decided to develop an arbitrary type of new universal vessel loading-unloading module. The new module, in particular, makes it possible to plan container loading operations involving non-standard containers, including the specificity of allocating container fixtures on the deck;
Solvo.TOS supports container transfer between terminal yards, which is performed via either road or rail.
The truck operations area now supports automatic dual permit creation for gate entry: for the so-called “material” payload and also for the transport vehicle and driver.
“Despite the affiliate using it for less than 1 year, it can already be confirmed that automation system implementation improved operations at the terminal, while further expansion of functionality and development of Solvo.TOS is expected to further optimize processes and boost efficiency at the Murmansk port,” adds Sidorenko.
The terminal’s future plans include the implementation of Solvo.TOS for managing general cargo operations.
