Checklist Efficiency.
With the right set of technology, you can optimize the management of your vessel(s), or even your entire fleet by automating processes, improve operational methods and drive down costs. There are many ways you can use
technology to increase efficiency on board. A hot tip is (maybe not surprisingly) to invest in applications and systems that can exchange data, analyze processes, and increase earnings.
With the right technology you can safely collect and distribute data across your fleet, sharing reports and analyses. You can use the collected data to take measurements, to automize or secure your data flow. You can also reduce IT staff workload significantly by making changes to your digital routines. Not sure how? Feel free to use this checklist to start unlocking what your situation is today.
- Do you have access to real-time data, or do you rely on monthly reports?
- Do you cut and paste data from different systems? That might be time consuming.
- Do you have access to data from other vessels in your fleet? That could save you lots of time.
- Have you optimized the use of bandwidth capacity to get the most of your vessel IT investments?
- Do you have processes to simplify the setup of complex file transfer tasks?
Is your data flow secure? - Do you have full control of your data transfers in the cloud?
Do you have a plan for maintenance of software? - Do you have automated solutions for LCR (Lean Cost Routing) between all available communication methods?
- Do you keep inventory management?
- Do you have a strategy for data? Plan for how you will develop insight from raw data.
- Are you able to easily combine data from different systems and sources? This is where the real insight is found.
- Does your data represent your processes? Decision makers need data visualised in a format they recognise.
