Defence and security company Saab informed that it has been awarded a contract to implement a new Marine Pilot Dispatch System for DanPilot, the Danish State maritime pilotage provider, based on Saab’s PILOTCONTROL solution.
DanPilot’s goal is to improve the productivity and cost-effectiveness of pilotage operations, while ensuring a high level of safety. The new system wants to offer optimisation and management of pilot boat services, ground transportation and pilot services, and a comprehensive rostering, planning and dispatch solution.
“We are very satisfied that we as DanPilot have chosen Saab as the supplier of their new pilotage management system, which is the key for efficient operations. By choosing PILOTCONTROL DanPilot will be well equipped and have flexibility to meet the new local market challenges in 2020 and the years ahead,” mentioned Steen Larsen, Head of Planning and Digitalization for DanPilot.
PILOTCONTROL is planned to start operations in Denmark in the fourth quarter of 2018.
