Our system includes a dedicated Work & Rest Hours module where onboard crew can log their hours. The system automatically calculates compliance against the relevant regulations, flagging any non-conformities or periods of insufficient rest before they become a violation, providing a crucial tool for both safety and compliance.
Yes. We provide a secure 'Seafarer Portal' accessible via a mobile app. This allows your crew to view their own documents, check payslips, view their scheduled rotation, and even update their personal contact information, which then awaits approval from the crewing manager. This self-service capability reduces administrative queries and empowers your crew.
Our platform is designed to be flexible. You can grant specific, limited access to your trusted manning agencies, allowing them to propose candidates and upload initial documentation directly into the system. This streamlines the recruitment process while ensuring you maintain final control over data and hiring decisions.
Our system is designed to bring order to this chaos. The Crew Planner provides a live, visual interface where you can see the vessel's latest ETA/ETD alongside the crew's scheduled rotation dates. If a vessel's schedule changes, the system automatically flags potential conflicts with planned crew changes and their flight bookings. It allows you to quickly model alternative crew change options at different ports along the vessel's route, see the cost implications, and coordinate with port agents and travel providers all from a single dashboard, turning a reactive crisis into a managed, proactive decision.
We have a dedicated 'Travel & Visa Management' feature. For each seafarer, you can store not just their passport and SID but also track the validity of all their visas (e.g., Schengen, US C1/D). The system can be configured with your most common crew change ports, highlighting the specific visa and documentation requirements for each. Furthermore, it can automatically generate standardized Letters of Guarantee and other necessary travel documents using pre-approved templates, drastically reducing the administrative time and risk of errors.
Yes, our payroll engine was built from the ground up specifically for the maritime industry. It is designed to handle multiple CBAs and can be configured with different wage scales, overtime rules, and leave pay calculations. You can set up complex allotment schedules for each seafarer, manage cash-to-master, and process payments in multiple currencies. The system provides a clear, auditable calculation for every single payslip, ensuring compliance with MLC regulations and giving both you and your crew full confidence in the accuracy of their wages.
Our system provides the framework for TMSA's crew management elements. You can create a 'Competency Matrix' for each rank, defining the required training and sea service experience on specific vessel types. The system then automatically compares this matrix against each seafarer's record, highlighting any gaps. When an officer is proposed for a vessel, you can instantly see if they meet the specific matrix requirements of the charterer. This allows you to generate compliance reports that provide clear, documented evidence of your robust crew selection and training process, which is essential for successful vetting
This is where our analytics dashboard provides immense value. Because the system tracks a seafarer's entire journey—from hiring to promotion to sign-off—we can provide you with powerful retention insights. You can track your fleet's overall retention rate, and more importantly, you can filter it by rank, vessel type, or even nationality. When a seafarer signs off, the exit form can include a field for 'Reason for Leaving.' Over time, this data can reveal trends—are you losing Second Mates after their first promotion? Are seafarers on a particular trade route less likely to return? This intelligence is crucial for building effective, long-term retention strategies.
