5 ways TMS7 will improve your terminal operations
Tuesday, February 25, 2025
Since the release of TMS6 in 2006, the terminal industry has become more complex. Some organizations are growing through acquisitions, while others are divesting their terminals to marketing and logistics companies, who operate on different business models. The result is increased pressure on the operational technology (OT) team to do more with less, while increasing security, efficiencies and cost savings.
Toptech can help you respond to these needs with TMS7 – a major update to our terminal automation system (TAS). TMS7 has stronger security controls, while increasing efficiency and minimizing the effort to onboard new users. Here are 5 ways TMS7 will improve your operations:
