With more companies wanting to access their terminal management system using mobile devices and market demand for increased productivity and security, Toptech Systems in Longwood, Florida, recently introduced their new TMS7 terminal management system.
A terminal is an petroleum storage and distribution facility that usually serves as the step before petroleum makes it to a gas station. It’s a gas station for the gas station. Each terminal uses a software tool called a terminal management system to help them keep track of how much oil has been loaded, what’s been offloaded, and what drivers are authorized to load.
Building upon TMS6 whose original version was launched in 2004, TMS7 features several major improvements over traditional terminal automation systems, including improved productivity, flexibility, and security.
TMS7 is accessible in any web browser from any internet enabled device, whereas TMS6 had to be installed on each computer and it is not optimized for mobile use. Plus, to offer a more productive experience, Toptech engineers developed a user-friendly interface, superior security and a built-in user guide for each page of the system.
Additional features include:
– Multiple screens allow the user to create and save custom filters, plus hide and rearrange columns to quickly view relevant data.
– Powerful search feature (similar to the Google search bar) that allows customers to completely bypass the traditional menu and go straight to what they need.
– Export data more easily from key screens to excel (choose between XLSX or CSV). Users can export using their custom filters or they can export all the columns.
– Major and minor upgrades take less than 5 minutes. TMS7 enables users to upgrade their system with the click of one button. In previous versions of TMS, the upgrade process was long and complex, resulting in extended lane closures and business interruptions.
Recently, Toptech Systems completed the first TMS7 installation, which was an upgrade from TMS6 to TMS7. The customer is very pleased with the results and already working to place TMS7 in a second location.
