Whether you’re launching a second ship or managing an entire fleet, one thing is becoming increasingly important: overview and control.
These days, a single ship can require over 100 certificates. These must always be ready for inspection at any moment. That’s already a challenge for one ship, but what happens as you grow? How do you prevent expired certificates, missed maintenance, or misplaced documents? And how do you achieve the economies of scale of your fleet? The answer: work from a centralized system.
One click, a complete overview
As your fleet grows, the number of certificates, maintenance tasks and orders increases exponentially. Manual lists can’t keep up, are time-consuming and error-prone. A central solution gives you control, even when things get busy. Geert Jan Hut from Hut Tankschiffahrt shares his experience: “With MXSuite, I have a clear overview of all maintenance tasks and spare parts to service my ship efficiently and on time. I can also manage all my certificates and the system alerts me in advance when expiration dates are approaching.”
Insight that drives action
Mastex’s colleague Peter sees the same need across many growing companies: “As you grow, you’re looking for a solution that can grow with you. Nothing is more frustrating than feeling like you’re losing your grip.”
Wagenborg Passagiersdiensten made the switch at the right time. Izak van Rijn explains: “With MXSuite, we have one dashboard that includes all documents, maintenance planning, incidents, tasks, drills and certificates. Everyone works from the same system, based on the same information.”
And that’s exactly what you need when scaling: insight that you can act on. Defects, points of attention, scheduled tasks, it all comes together in one place. This way, nothing falls between two stools.
Kim Heiniö from Al Mare Consulting highlights the same benefit: “We’ve been managing our fleet with MXSuite for quite some time. The ease of use and clear overview of all tasks related to maintenance, inventory, certificates and documents ensure that both our office and crew can work efficiently.”
Scalable and flexible
What works for three ships today needs to work for ten tomorrow. A good system grows with you. You want to be able to add modules, make adjustments and assign different roles without the system collapsing under its own weight.
“The system’s flexibility and Mastex’s support are unparalleled. We’ve been able to fully tailor MXSuite to our specific needs,” says Patrick Speak, Chief Engineer of MY Solaris.
Peter (Mastex): “We always think along with our clients: how can you quickly digitalize, scale and continue to grow? The system should never be the bottleneck.”
Growth requires peace of mind
A good system brings peace of mind. Not because there’s less work, but because there’s less chaos. That’s how you stay in control of your growth. And create space to look ahead!
