Lessons learned
•
•
•
•
•
Is not a plug-and-play solution, particular configuration
has to be done
Same consultant ( KALMAR – NAVIS) from the
beginning, playing as an experts of that particular project,
is an advantage
The integration between KALMAR-NAVIS was the key
factor of the decision of TECPLATA
The solution has been customized to fulfill TECPLATA
expectations
Worked with Cargotec-Argentina for completion of
installation on all CHE was beneficial for both side.
