Why Choose Us

We are a dedicated team of port logistics specialists

CENTER TOS, our Terminal Operating System, is the dynamic alternative for multipurpose and dedicated container terminals. It boosts your port productivity by minimizing your cargo movements and reducing your carbon footprint. CENTER TOS supports job-controlled execution. Its advanced yard planning helps you to use resources more efficiently, and its BI solutions increase visibility for all activities.

Every two weeks, the entire system is upgraded ‘in a mealbreak’ (only 30 minutes). This reduces the risk of downtime at the terminal significantly and enables you to immediately respond to market changes and customer demands. We release updates every two weeks in your UAT environment, so you can test any new features before they are being deployed. With CENTER TOS you’re always up-to-date in no-time.

What we love most about our projects, is that we can really help you to connect your business anytime, anywhere. In the words of some of our clients:

Port of St. Maarten: “We look forward to continuing this great partnership and making a huge success of both the CENTER TOS and CENTER PMS implementations!’

Rotterdam Short Sea Terminals BV (RST): ‘One of the advantages of working with IT Partner is that they are able to provide us with new releases and updates on a regular basis, with almost zero downtime. For us, being the largest short sea terminal of Europe, it is crucial that we can do our job without any disruption. We can update our entire TOS within a meal break.’

IT Partner was founded in 1999 in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. In those early days all the software solutions were custom made, for a specific customer with a specific need. By word of mouth IT partner gained more customers. New customers with other demands requested new functionalities to be added to the different solutions, and specific solutions were built that were fit for purpose.

In 2014 IT Partner changed the strategy, to start a more product oriented business. Instead of creating a solution per customer, a big investment was made to work on one solution, that covers all necessary functionalities within the terminal and port business. The CENTER SUITE was born. An off the shelf solution existing of separate modules which can be used independently, but with the flexibility that different businesses need to meet their demands.

Over the last years IT Partner has grown rapidly, developing from a small team with project specialists, to a company with 40 employees in three countries. In 2024, we celebrated our 25 years anniversary with our dear customers and partners.
