[ December 17, 2025   //   ]

Freight software company Fargo has acquired Bankside Systems, creator of the Intermodal Manager Cloud-based operating system for inland terminals, depots and intermodal hubs.

As part of the acquisition, the platform will be rebranded as Fargo TERM,  sitting alongside Fargo’s Fargo TOPS (Transport Operations) and Fargo YARD (Yard and Gate Coordination).solutions. It will join Fargo’s existing container and intermodal solutions to create a connected technology system spanning road, rail, yard, and terminal operations.

Fargo says the acquisition significantly enhances its position in intermodal transport, and will give operators end-to-end visibility into container, equipment, and yard activity, helping them to reduce manual processes and increase throughput in complex multimodal environments.

The Fargo TERM platform offers integrated functions for yard operations, stock visibility, gate and rail control, maintenance and repair, equipment and stack management and customer self-service workflows.

Fargo managing director Steve Collins, explained: “This acquisition strengthens Fargo’s position as a leading provider of connected technology in the intermodal sector. Fargo TERM enhances our existing capabilities in road and yard operations, enabling us to support customers across a broader part of the supply chain. We are delighted to welcome the Intermodal Manager team and customers into Fargo, and we look forward to delivering even greater levels of operational visibility, efficiency and value.”

Co-Founders of Intermodal Manager, Ian Rogerson and Michael Weaver, added: “Our focus has always been on helping terminal and intermodal operators work more efficiently through clear workflows, reliable data, and operational control. Fargo shares that philosophy. Becoming Fargo TERM enables the platform to grow within a broader, integrated technology family, offering enhanced opportunities for development, support, and collaboration. We are confident this will bring meaningful benefits to our customers.”
