Better ways to utilize crew competence and skills while performing complex technical maintenance and repairs

3/24/2023

0 Comments

 
One can agree that crew members are the most important "asset" of a vessel. Without the crew, the vessel would not be able to sail, be maintained, loaded or discharged. Like many industries, there is a demand for reduction in resources and crew members onboard vessels. We address this problem by developing better ways to utilize the skills and resources we already have onboard.
Picture
Ulysses Systems and VesselMan are now working towards making a skill matrix where we are tracking and visualizing what skills our team already has within maintenance, dry-docking and technical projects. We see a massive potential in optimizing the team and fully use all resources when necessary. This feature will help crewing departments in shipping company/ship managements get a better way create awareness of the skills and experience of the crew.

Ulysses Systems and VesselMan are experts in understanding maintenance. A big focus area is to ensure the maintenance schedules are adhered to, even if you don’t report the jobs in the sequence expected due to unscheduled events like breakdowns and repair periods like dry-docks.

VesselMan is very excited about being part of this collaborative project with Ulysses Hellas S.A which is a project supported by a grant from Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway through the EEA Grants 2014-2021, in the frame of the programme “Business Innovation Greece”.
​
The project “Crew management system to improve manning based on skills, experience and business requirements” addresses manning problems in relation to vessels technical performance. This project will complement the planned maintenance integrations with technical projects that are already established between Ulysses and VesselMan. Giving the shipping companies best possible utilization of optimized manning, ship repair and maintenance and performance for the voyages.

VesselMan is always looking for ways to integrate or partner with other systems in the industry to help our users utilize their day- to day work better. Integration is the key forward to everything involved in digitalization in the maritime industry.

​IMC Ship Management (IMC) as a fast-growing Singapore-based maritime company provides a diversified range of services in Maritime Asset Management and ancillary solutions. The group manages a fleet of vessels that include bulk carriers, oil/chemical tankers, containers, cable-layers, and multi-purpose vessels.
 
In the effort to digitalize its work processes, IMC collaborated with VesselMan to conduct pilot projects on two of their technical projects.
We were sourcing for a cloud-based solution that enables technical data to be consolidated as a move to improve our readiness in expanding the business. With VesselMan, our projects can be carried out in a systematic way and data being shared in a digital ecosystem. Most importantly, technical data can be shared among all users through boundary-less collaboration to enhance the projects’ efficiency and cost control.

- Lingfeng Han, Senior Manager, Fleet at IMC Ship Management
​VesselMan provides a platform with easy usability for users from different backgrounds to input and share information when it comes to technical projects, which usually involves as much as 70% of a vessel’s maintenance cost. With users being guided through the standardized processes, the time spent on building specs, comparing quotes, and tracking jobs can be kept at minimal.
Our office in Singapore covers the APAC time zone to train and support users in the region. The team is confident that we will be able to furnish IMC a solution that does not only significantly reduce the cost and time spent on technical projects, but also raise the awareness on the importance of technical data management.

We are pleased to announce that Hurtigruten Norway will use VesselMan on two upcoming projects. The project on MS Richard With is part of Hurtigruten Norway’s green upgrades program, one of Europe's biggest environmental upgrades that will cut CO2 emissions by 25 per cent and NOx emissions by as much as 80 per cent. The second project is a Main Class Renewal with installation of exhaust cleaning system Selective Catalytic Converter (SCR) on MS Nordnorge.

For VesselMan, this is a great opportunity to work with like minded people that have the same environmental goals, as well to enable efficient process steps throughout the project and transparency across the fleet. We will convert their existing processes and routines into a digital format and we will create an environment where they will have a good overview of all upcoming projects with focus on cost control and quality on their technical specifications. Our ambition is to show value creation to the management, as well as their superintendents and site managers working with the projects.
