The Port of Fujairah has announced a strategic agreement with Endava (NYSE: DAVA) to lead a five-year digital transformation initiative. The project aims to unify and modernize the port's operations through six progressive modules.
The initiative will introduce advanced digital solutions. These include vessel call management, dry and liquid bulk operations, gate pass security, and real-time analytics. The goal is to ensure world-class efficiency and transparency across all port activities.
At the heart of this transformation is a new Port Community System named 'MarHub.' The platform is designed as a connected gateway for all stakeholders.
The Port of Fujairah, a key maritime hub in the UAE, handles nearly 120 million metric tons of cargo annually. It also records 5,000 port calls and over 12,000 anchorage calls each year. Technology has played a vital role in supporting these operations.
Mr. Khalil Ebrahim, Deputy Managing Director at Port of Fujairah, said efficiency is central to their operations. He added that the transformation will enhance service quality, security, and trust. He also emphasized the commitment to providing world-class infrastructure.
Endava, a global leader in digital transformation projects, will deliver the MarHub platform. It will enhance data accessibility, streamline workflows, and support automation and continuous improvement. The system's API-first, cloud-native architecture will allow ongoing innovation. Phase 1 is scheduled to launch in Q4 2025.
The project aligns with Fujairah's sustainability goals. MarHub will be hosted on Microsoft Azure regions in the UAE to ensure data residency and compliance. The deployment will use containerization and automated resource scaling to reduce infrastructure waste. Security measures include ISO 27001 standards, end-to-end encryption, and multi-level access controls.
David Boast, General Manager for UAE & KSA at Endava, said they are honored to be chosen as the port's transformation partner. He added that the project will set new benchmarks for digital-led logistics in the region.
