Command Dashboard

A forward-looking, decision-first view of terminal performance. Every figure is traceable to source and can be interrogated in plain language.

Board Intelligence Brief · Q3 2026

The quarter was shaped by three converging pressures: a legacy-asset failure, a product-quality event, and vessel scheduling breakdown — each with a traceable cost trail.

Pattern Recognition

Auto-generated insights, each grounded in the dataset

Absence concentrates on Mondays & Fridays

Amber

Unplanned absence is heavily skewed to the start and end of the week — Mondays and Fridays account for 45.8% of all unplanned absence, a classic attendance-pattern signal worth a targeted policy response.

Confidence86%

Source: People → Absence analysis (1,242.9 leave units, 34.4% unplanned)

A single event drives most downtime

Red

Mechanical downtime is not broad-based: the Old SKT bogie derailment alone accounts for 120 of 177 hrs (~68%). Addressing legacy-line reliability would remove the bulk of the exposure.

Confidence94%

Source: Mechanical → Downtime breakdown (177 hrs total, 7 breakdowns)

Cyber remediation up, incidents flat at zero

Green

Vulnerabilities remediated rose to 6,320 (from 4,980) while major security incidents held at zero and the DR test passed — evidence the proactive posture is working.
