• Reducing risks, creating opportunities and strive for the solution with highest operational performance under all circumstances.
• Smooth integration of expansion scope into the running terminal.
• Implementing detailed functionalities to have a good maintainable- and operational system.
• Managing the implementation of WS-AHTS and optimize the support for the overall expansion project and the terminal operation.
