Since 2020, APM Terminals has embarked on a global modernization program to deliver operational excellence which forms a key lever of our 2030 strategic ambition. The autonomous Prime Mover (AutoPM) is a vital part of this endeavor, as the primary solution to automate horizontal transport within some of our existing terminals. As the first pilot has been successfully completed, we are now initiating the second and final pilot in APM Terminals Bahrain and after completing this project we aim to roll-out the same product across multiple terminals within our portfolio. This modernization project will require complex heavy equipment engineering and technology integration skills.
