Real-time alerts Redefining Maritime Operations

The Covid-19 pandemic has pushed the maritime industry to switch to digital ways of operation from traditional ways. Operations that were earlier dependent on noon reports, dry dock reports are now been taken over by real-time monitoring, tracking and observing all the alarms from the vessels. The use of tech-based solutions has now been taken up as a major digitalization objective by the global maritime companies. At the same time when IoT and smart sensors are tapping in data from different parameters of the ship, many are taking this opportunity to leverage operational data, make better operational decisions, and refine their business procedure.

With the rise in demand for data, the industry is more looking out to monitor every parameter and make sense of the data. Smart Ship hub comes up with comprehensive, satellite-enabled, and real-time communication tools for ship owners, operators and charter parties to take decisions based on real-time data. Available on mobile, web, and desktop, our platforms are giving the industry easy access to process automation, remote monitoring, tracking and control of the vessels with live monitoring of alerts from vessels.

Real-time alerts are one of the most important and helpful features of the module assisting crew and shore team to take an informed decision. The digital platform is redefining the way vessels are being operated and enabling users to define a view, and attain the alerts notification in real-time.
Alerts can be defined into different risk levels – Alarm, alerts, warning, based upon the alerts generated during the voyages concern authorities can be notified to address the alerts based upon the type of alarm that is raised.

Smart alerts shore team receiving live from vessels are redefining the operations and taking the operation steps to a more accurate and precise way of working. These alerts or alarms can be notified by advisory steps that the system is capable of giving.

Transparency to operators, owners in vessel operations from shore

Traditionally, managers had to wait for the noon reports or messages from the vessel’s crew to know about any operational challenges. With real-time alerts, all the relevant stakeholders are well connected and notified about the ship’s status in terms of operations, navigation, or major equipment status and safety of the vessel. This improves the overall connectivity and communication across the concerned authorities. The real-time alerts and notifications can be configured as per the operational requirement.

Condition-based Machine monitoring

In day-to-day operation, ship managers and operators rely on  PMS  i.e. based on run hours, makers suggested maintenance to manage equipment health. The old-style maintenance programs have numerous challenges and can lead to unplanned vessel downtime affecting delays in sailing, parts ordering and incur a loss. With real-time alerts, vessel staff and managers can efficiently observe equipment health, get an insight about operational and performance status and proactively take maintenance decisions.

Safe navigation with accurate and reliable advisory powered by live data

The significance of safe navigation cannot be underscored. Smart Ship© Hub solution digitizes ship’s completely giving live alerts from Bridge, ECR, Cargo Control operations by providing access to real-time data. Helping superintendents and operators onshore to understand the live status and provide assistance in case required. Real-time alerts can be of more help to the shore team as the shore team would be able to see all the actions and alarms that are happening live in the ocean. This is helping the superintendents and managers to have a track of all the crucial things that happen and how it was addressed. Real-time alerts monitoring is making vessel operations more data-driven and focused. The shore team now has the ability to prioritize the task that needs to take care on within the needed time frame. Condition-wise monitoring for machinery and engines can be one of the crucial activities that real-time alerts can address.
