Axxon for Port Authorities: Solutions, Benefits, and more.
Your yard tractor leaves Berth 2 with a full box and never comes back on time. An empty reefer vanishes behind another stack. A new operator gets a little too close to a crane leg and no one sees it until the bump-stop invoice lands on your desk.
Do these sound familiar?
You could keep calling radio control, walking rows, or replaying three different CCTV angles, but that only eats more hours you don’t have. What you need is one live source of truth for:
- Where every vehicle is now
- Where every container or genset was last pinged
- How safely each driver or crane operator is working
One Platform, Three Feeds of Visibility
| Visibility Gap | Axxon Feed That Solves It |
| Vehicles disappear between moves | Hard-wired GPS trackers in yard tractors, pickups, cranes, location, speed, and engine hours in real time. |
| Containers “walk” or pile in the wrong row | BLE asset tags on boxes, chassis, reefers, yard gateways read pings and show the latest slot, no barcode hunts. |
| Near-misses go unreported until someone complains | AI dashcams inside cabs detect speeding, harsh turns, and close-proximity events; clips auto-upload to the same dashboard. |
The best thing is that your dispatcher will be able to see an accurate yard picture in under ten seconds.
Five KPIs You’ll Care About
- Move-Cycle Time – minutes from vessel to planned stack: long cycles point to route or staffing issues.
- Equipment Utilisation% – hours each truck or crane is productive versus idling: highlights over-capacity.
- Asset-Location Accuracy – percentage of BLE-tagged boxes in their assigned zones: stops searches and lost-time charges.
- Safety Events per 100 hours – AI dashcam alerts for speeding, harsh lifts, or pedestrian proximity: guides coaching sessions.
- Unplanned Downtime Hours – hours machines are offline beyond scheduled PM: ties back to real-time fault codes.
Axxon updates these KPIs live, NO more end-of-week Excel pivots.
How a Typical Day Changes
| Old Day | New Day with Axxon |
| Dispatcher calls three tractor drivers to find one empty chassis. | Opens map, types chassis ID and last BLE ping shows in 5 seconds. |
| Supervisor hunts CCTV footage after a dent is found on a box. | Opens map, types chassis ID, and last BLE ping shows in 5 seconds. |
| Planner overbooks two cranes while another sits idle. | Searches dashcam events, and a 15-second clip shows the contact point and driver. |
| Maintenance logs sit unread until a breakdown. | The dispatcher calls three tractor drivers to find one empty chassis. |
Cost and ROI in Plain Numbers
- GPS tracker + BLE tag + dashcam bundle costs less than a tank of diesel per asset per month.
- Recovering one lost gen-set or avoiding one vessel-delay fee often pays for a year of service.
Bottom Line
Ports don’t slow down, and managers can’t watch every move in person. By merging GPS for vehicles, BLE for movable assets, and AI dashcams for operator behaviour into one view, you get back the control that daily chaos steals.
For safer, smarter operations.
