| Microsoft | Legacy | Microsoft Dynamics NAV | ERP Financial | ERP Financial Management | n/a | 2015 | 2015 |
In 2015, Port Taranaki implemented Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 as its ERP Financial system. Theta worked with Port Taranaki to define business requirements, document existing processes across the port and build a working proof of concept using six scenarios and interactive screens to validate workflows prior to full configuration.
The implementation embedded a bespoke vessel visits module inside Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 to capture pricing rules that vary by customer, cargo type and service, and to centralize invoicing around specific vessel visits. The solution consolidated four service types used in vessel billing, including marine services, wharfage, plant hire and sundry activities, and applied default dimension rules to simplify the chart of accounts, reducing general ledger account codes from almost 150,000 to 573.
Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 was integrated with Maximo Asset Management to align asset costs and maintenance with operational expenditure, and Jet Reports was added to extend NAVs reporting for custom, self-service business intelligence. Operational coverage included finance and billing, operational planning for vessel visits, asset management and reporting across port services such as stevedoring, ship agency and providoring, improving visibility into cargo ownership and seasonal movement trends.
Project governance used a strong, active project steering committee and a front-loaded analysis phase, which Theta and Port Taranaki credit for keeping the program on track. The team employed modern design patterns to minimize code footprint and improve maintainability, and leveraged the simplified Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015 user interface to increase user engagement during rollout.
Explicit outcomes stated by the customer include a lower total cost of ownership compared with the previous Oracle financial management system, an estimated $100,000 saving in licensing over three years, a 50 percent reduction in time to produce financial and operational dashboards, improved tracking and depreciation of capitalised fixed assets, and reduced manual processing and single-person dependencies for vessel visit invoicing.

| Fusion5 | Legacy | Fusion5 TimeFiler Absence and Leave | Absence and Leave Management | HCM | n/a | 2020 | 2021 |
In 2020, Port Taranaki implemented Fusion5 TimeFiler Absence and Leave. The Absence and Leave Management deployment was delivered by Fusion5 as a multi-stage project scoped during the COVID-19 period, and it integrated with Datacom and Maximo to address 24/7 rostering complexity, union rules, and complex pay conditions.
Fusion5 TimeFiler Absence and Leave was configured to provide roster management, automated time capture, absence tracking, leave approvals, and pay-condition calculation automation. The implementation included configuration for union-specific pay rules and roster templates, and it was instrumented to improve roster visibility and reduce manual payroll processing through automated pay-condition logic.
The solution was integrated with Datacom and Maximo to feed roster and time data into operational and payroll workflows, enabling handoffs between scheduling, maintenance coordination, and payroll/HR systems. Operational coverage targeted Port Taranaki core operations running continuous shifts, with the application supporting payroll and HR functional workflows for the region.
Governance followed a staged rollout approach, with project scoping and phased deployment during 2020, and operationalization focused on automating calculations and standardizing roster governance. Outcomes explicitly reported include reduced manual payroll work, improved roster visibility, and automation of most pay-condition calculations for payroll and HR in the region.

| IBM | Legacy | IBM Maximo | Enterprise Asset Management | ERP Services and Operations | Maxpros Australia | 2022 | 2022 |
In 2022 Port Taranaki implemented IBM Maximo as its Enterprise Asset Management solution, initiating a portwide program to centralize maintenance workflows and asset cost visibility. The IBM Maximo deployment was delivered with Maxpros Australia and targeted both marine and land asset portfolios within the port operations.
The implementation configured IBM Maximo as a computerised maintenance management system, CMMS, embedding preventive maintenance scheduling, work order management, and asset register capabilities. Port Taranaki used IBM Maximo to formalise maintenance processes, capture labour and plant usage patterns, and extend visibility of asset-level cost data across operations.
IBM Maximo was integrated with the ports Oracle FMIS and a bespoke labour and plant usage system to synchronize financial postings and operational usage records. The deployment was rolled out from management through to front line staff, enabling the same asset management workflows to be executed by planners, supervisors, and technicians across land and marine sites.
Governance changes removed paper-based work practices and established system driven work assignment and inspection workflows, shifting maintenance activities from reactive to more proactive regimes. The implementation improved transparency of land and marine asset costs and generated crossfunctional efficiency by linking maintenance execution in IBM Maximo to financial and labour systems.
