XVELA, part of Kalmar business area within Cargotec, has signed a contract with Ocean Network Express Pte. Ltd. ("ONE") for a collaborative stowage solution. The order has been booked into Cargotec's 2017 fourth quarter order intake. It is a significant step in realising the Cargotec and Kalmar strategy to grow in software business.

It enables terminals, carriers and operational partners to work together to better communicate, coordinate and synchronise their operations.
