This project introduces, Athena, a strategic labour force management system at the Port of Blyth, aimed at enhancing operational efficiency and ensuring regulatory compliance. Central to this are two modules: automated employee scheduling and task allocation, and a comprehensive skills and qualifications management system.The automated scheduling module uses statistics and AI optimizing human resource allocation and improving operational efficiency by up to 8%.Athena uses AI assigning tasks based on employee availability and forecasted demand. This approach not only improves productivity but also addresses employee preferences, potentially reducing turnover and increasing job satisfaction.In parallel, the skills and qualifications management module ensures that tasks are assigned to appropriately qualified personnel. This is critical in a port environment where safety and adherence to regulations are essential. By maintaining an up-to-date database of employee qualifications, compliance standards are efficiently met.The impact of this project extends beyond the Port of Blyth. The logistics benefits will ripple across the North East of England. The SaaS system can serve as a replicable model for other ports and industries, showcasing the benefits of digital solutions in workforce management.The Port of Blyth's significant investment of nearly £50 million between 2012 and 2022 demonstrates its commitment to stakeholders and regional economic development. As a catalyst for commerce in South East Northumberland, the port has been instrumental in attracting substantial inward investment to the Blyth Estuary. This is particularly notable given its role in the offshore renewable energy market since the early 2000s. Moreover, as a Trust Port, its contributions extend beyond economic benefits, encompassing support for local charities, schools, and initiatives like the Energy Central Learning Hub, aimed at upskilling the workforce for a low-carbon economy.The project aligns with the goals of sustainable development. By optimizing resource use and reducing operational redundancies, it contributes to a more sustainable economic model. Efficient scheduling can lead to a reduction in overtime + contractor costs by 7.5% through optimising the ports most constraining factor -- labour.The digital transformation at the Port of Blyth is expected to have a tangible impact on the regional economy. The implementation of advanced technology in one of the key infrastructures of the region can act as a catalyst for economic growth, attracting investment and encouraging technological adoption in other sectors.This project represents a significant step towards a more efficient, compliant, and economically strong North East of England.

该项目介绍了Blyth港的战略劳动力管理系统Athena，旨在提高运营效率并确保遵守法规。其核心是两个模块：自动化员工调度和任务分配，以及全面的技能和资格管理系统。自动调度模块利用统计数据和人工智能优化人力资源分配，将运营效率提高8%。雅典娜使用人工智能根据员工的可用性和预测的需求分配任务。这种方法不仅能提高生产率，还能满足员工的偏好，潜在地减少人员流失，提高工作满意度。与此同时，技能和资格管理模块确保将任务分配给适当的合格人员。在安全和遵守法规至关重要的港口环境中，这一点至关重要。通过维护最新的员工资格数据库，可以有效地满足合规标准。这个项目的影响超出了布莱斯港。物流方面的好处将波及整个英格兰东北部。SaaS系统可以作为其他港口和行业的可复制模型，展示数字解决方案在劳动力管理方面的优势。布莱斯港在2012年至2022年期间的近5000万英镑的重大投资表明了其对利益相关者和区域经济发展的承诺。作为诺森伯兰郡东南部商业的催化剂，该港口在吸引大量内向投资到布莱斯河口方面发挥了重要作用。考虑到自21世纪初以来它在海上可再生能源市场的作用，这一点尤其值得注意。此外，作为一个信托港口，它的贡献不仅限于经济效益，还包括对当地慈善机构、学校和旨在提高低碳经济劳动力技能的能源中心学习中心（Energy Central Learning Hub）等倡议的支持。该项目符合可持续发展的目标。通过优化资源利用和减少操作冗余，它有助于实现更可持续的经济模式。通过优化港口最大的制约因素——劳动力，有效的调度可以使加班和承包商成本减少7.5%。布莱斯港的数字化转型预计将对地区经济产生切实的影响。在该区域的一个关键基础设施中采用先进技术可以作为经济增长的催化剂，吸引投资并鼓励其他部门采用技术。该项目代表着朝着更高效、更合规、经济更强大的英格兰东北部迈出的重要一步。
