TBA Group provides software as well as port planning and optimizing consultancy services in the ports, intermodal and warehousing sectors.
The TBA design consultancy operations are planned to be transferred to a new legal entity, thereafter remaining independent of the software product organization.
Mika Mahlberg, Executive VP, head of business Area Port Solutions, Konecranes, says by bringing TBA software products even closer to the container and bulk handling equipment, Konecranes is better equipped to serve its customers and accelerate the introduction of innovations to market.
“This will enable us to even better deliver advanced turn-key solutions to automated container terminals where equipment, software and services must be seamlessly integrated,” he said.
TBA software comprises Autostore Terminal Operating System (TOS), CommTrac TOS, Teams Equipment Control System (ECS) and Autostore Warehouse Management System (WMS).
It provides services to optimize port and warehouse operations and automation with over 150 enterprise customer installations and over 2,500 automation and control projects in more than 85 countries.
TBA offices are located in Rijswijk in the Netherlands, two UK centers in Leicester and Doncaster, Satu Mare in Romania and Düsseldorf in Germany.
