Since 2019, we’ve been on a mission to streamline barge transportation, starting with a centralized marketplace designed to optimize communication, improve asset utilization, and reduce costs.
Through listening to our customers, we evolved beyond the OpenTug Marketplace to deliver BargeOS, a comprehensive hub of data-driven solutions, unlocking new levels of efficiency and visibility.
As the industry embraces digital transformation, we remain a trusted partner, committed to leading innovation and equipping our customers for today’s challenges and tomorrow’s opportunities.
OpenTug’s software tools are relied on by stakeholders throughout the nation’s waterways. This includes inland and coastal barge companies, bulk and breakbulk ocean lines, and organizations leveraging barge transport to move their products such as those in the liquid bulk, dry bulk, and breakbulk industries.
