ShipServ, a maritime e-procurement platform, announced the deal with Hanseaticsoft, cloud-based software solution providers.

The agreement is in line with ShipServ's strategy to develop relationships with technology partners, where the ShipServ TradeNet platform is integrated into enterprise-wide systems, benefiting fleet management, operational performance and cost reduction.

Hanseaticsoft's Cloud Fleet Manager (CFM) software is an interactive and web-based ship management platform that enables shipowners and operators to manage various operational tasks, such as the execution of inspections and audits, crew management, fleet scheduling, vessel chartering and risk assessment.

Carsten Schmidt, SVP, Head of Sales EMEA, ShipServ said, "The ShipServ platform is pre-installed into CFM (…). By simply ticking a box, a shipowner's or manager's purchasing department has an immediate and secure access to an entire marketplace and more than 75,000 suppliers to the maritime industry."

Shipowners and operators can benefit from the ability to use the tools in question to analyse the performance of their suppliers, as well as spending patterns and trends. The solution also allows for OPEX reduction and enhancement of the supply chain performance, due to increased transparency and visibility of buyers' purchases.

Commenting on the partnership, Alexander Buchmann, CEO, Hanseaticsoft, said, "Innovative cloud technology is now being embraced within the maritime industry (…). Having ShipServ as a partner and building the TradeNet platform into our state-of-the-art CFM solution ensures the purchasing module of our system is highly sophisticated and contributes significantly to the overall purpose of improving business performance (…)."
