Digitization means collaboration and closer and transparent partnerships, distributed value chains, lean processes and self service operations. All this supported by modern cloud based IT systems.
The users we work with are set free from complex spreadsheets and admin tasks. Overall, a reduced unplanned off-hires trough improved specifications and better risk control. This will help you to reduce cost and time spent throughout the whole project. Tracking progress and cost while being in the dock is also done digitally and the reports will then build itself. |

Höegh LNG"VesselMan is fully integrated with our Planned Maintenance System (PMS) work orders, purchases and components. The cloud based integration saves us a lot of work and streamlines the docking project in a way that gives us much better control and transparency”

PGSVesselMan has helped us through three important phases. In both Planning and Execution phase they have helped us get rid of the spreadsheets, as well as getting everything into the same place. Last phase is what I call the Post-yard phase. This is important for us because we get a full overview and summary of everything we have done, which is also great for everyone at the office.

Latest news from VesselMan
Agreement signed with BOURBON Offshore
01.10.2020
VesselMan is pleased to announce that they have signed a long-term agreement with the provision of cloud-based project management software with BOURBON. Bourbon is a leading marine service provider in the offshore oil and gas industry, operating in 44 countries with a modern and standardized fleet of 458 vessels. The agreement follows a six-month trial and review.
The digitization of the docking operations will help our engineers and superintendents to optimize costs, capitalize experience and gain efficiency and reliability all over the docking process. This long term partnership with Vesselman and Bourbon is finally a great added value for vessel owners, as the high level of docking expertise of Bourbon will be ‘smartly’ more accessible" |

Press Release: EEA Grants fund VesselMan and Ulysses Systems Hellas Collaboration
08.09.2020
|
Innovation Norway has provided support for Greek company Ulysses Systems Hellas and Norway’s VesselMan to develop an integrated Planned Maintenance System and project management tool for technical projects. This joint project is part of the Greece Business Innovation program.
Greece Business Innovation is a program that was established to support access to finance for Greek companies working on projects with partners from the EEA Donor States (Lichtenstein, Iceland and Norway). Following the financial crisis, access to capital has remained one of the major issues for Greek Small and Medium-sized Enterprises. |

We are very pleased and grateful to have been supported by Innovation Norway and Business Innovation Greece. I have always said that if you’re serious about shipping, you need to be in Greece. This is a great opportunity for VesselMan to build a standard integration module with an interoperable API that can work with any PMS system. This will be of great value to ship owners and superintendents, and will allow for seamless integration of multiple solutions delivering a much better outcome than has been previously available.

Article from The Digital Ship Magazine: Digital planning for dockings and repairs: interview with start-up VesselMan
04.09.2020

Norwegian start-up VesselMan develops apps and software for technical project management. Digital Ship spoke with Glenn Edvardsen, CEO of Vesselman to find out how the start-up is helping to deliver more efficient project management.
VesselMan of Oslo develops digital tools for shipping companies to better plan and budget complex technical projects such as dry-dockings, lay-ups, and scrubber installations. VesselMan helps shipping companies to establish standard processes for managing such projects, a so-called a “Masterplan”. Vesselman carries out hundreds of dockings on its software for clients Höegh LNG, PGS, Intership Navigation, Meratus and others. VesselMan makes it easy for the superintendent to be successful in every step of the dry-docking project. It claims it is easy-to-implement and cost-efficient option for digitisation of dry-dockings and technical projects. VesselMan introduced the Masterplan concept where it implements the companies’ “way-of-work”. |

COVID-19 Beaches Dry-dock Projects
25.08.2020

When COVID-19 hit the shipping industry behind the kneecaps, we needed to react fast. As with many suppliers, a lot of our clients had ongoing projects that needed to be postponed, cancelled, or simply put on hold. Like many of us across the industry, we had to see multiple colleagues and connections get laid-off, and ships were stuck in places where border restrictions had been initiated. For a company that deals with dry-docking, suddenly, these projects were hard to execute.
In this ‘new world’, most yards difficult to enter and quarantine requirements made normal attendance very time-demanding, and as we know - time is money. By April the numbers started to show what was going on in the market. Vessels were being forced into layup, three times as many ships were placed in lay-up and twice as many were recycled compared to before COVID-19. We did manage to react to the changing environment quickly. By the beginning of April, we already developed a Masterplan for lay-ups ready to roll out (including a set of standard activities and milestones clients needed to follow on this sort of technical project). This was developed and tested in collaboration with existing clients and classification societies. |

"VesselMan gives us better control of cost, variation orders and progress on critical jobs"
Mr. Eirik Sanderlien
Fleet Manager
GC RIEBER SHIPPING
"The cloud-based management tool provides platforms that are easily accessible by all involved parties, and it allows you to build a detailed specification, which can be used in a transparent quotation process. It also allows you to delegate tasks and reduce follow up work, but still have full control of the project. With this system I experienced fewer questions from the yard when I came down, and I always knew the current status of the project due to the great tracking function in the system"
