ShipServ Partners With Hanseaticsoft On Ship Management Platform

Maritime eProcurement platform ShipServ announced it has signed an agreement with Hanseaticsoft GmbH.

The deal will see the ShipServ TradeNet platform integrated and pre-installed into Hanseaticsoft’s Cloud Fleet Manager (CFM) software.

The ShipServ TradeNet platform works to optimize the management of an entire fleet, improving operational performance and efficiencies, as well as reducing costs and increasing profitability, while Hanseaticsoft’s CFM software enables ship owners and operators to manage all processes within the day-to-day operations of a fleet.

“Hanseaticsoft is one of the most advanced technology providers within the maritime industry and a natural fit for ShipServ to partner with,” said Carsten Schmidt, SVP and head of Sales EMEA at ShipServ, in a press release. “There is a seamless interface between both companies where there are clear core competencies and a specific point where ShipServ can add real value to Hanseaticsoft’s solution through the provision of procurement and sourcing services for supplies and analytics. The ShipServ platform is pre-installed into CFM, so there is no requirement for the installation of an adaptor or to test the connectivity, which can take time. By simply ticking a box, a ship owner 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.”

Ship owners and operators can also use ShipServ’s tools and solutions to analyze the performance of their suppliers, as well as spending patterns and trends.

“Innovative cloud technology is now being embraced within the maritime industry, which enables companies to optimize the management of their entire fleet and automate fundamental processes,” said Alexander Buchmann, chief executive officer at Hanseaticsoft. “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, increasing operational efficiencies and ultimately, profitability.”
