Transforming The Role Of Boarding Officers

The Singapore Association of Shipsuppliers & Serivces (SASS) wants to transform the way Boarding Officers work by reducing the need for physical interaction. The solution should enable Boarding Officers to obtain digital signatures and validate their authenticity in compliance with the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore and Singapore Customs. It should also allow them to remotely perform verification of delivered items with the crew, as well as communicate with them in real time to assist with any queries or concerns they may have.

Rapid Fastening Of Out-Of-Gauge Cargo

When it comes to transportation of cargo by sea, most people think of containers. However, what about large machinery or equipment that do not fit into standard shipping containers? This is what is referred to as out-of-gauge cargo. In order to prevent damage or pose any danger to the vessel and its crew during transportation, these need to be secured to the deck, a process known as seafastening.

MMA Offshore is looking for a solution that can reduce the time required for seafastening, in particular the process of welding and inspections.
