Shipping group Chandris Hellas has agreed a deal to implement a new crew software system from maritime tech start-up Seafair, and agreement that also includes group company Century Bulk Carriers.
The system will be used to support the company’s crew, HSQE and training departments in managing seafarer selection, development and monitoring, while also centralising management of requirements in crew compliance and retention.
“Seafair’s software helps our organisation use smart digital workflows to perform crewing activities,” said Klavdia Chatzikonstantinou, Digital Transformation & PMO Manager, Chandris Hellas.
“The system brings enhanced collaboration for all users that deal with crew matters both internally in our organisation and externally from our partners, who are able to access the platform with scalable user rights.”
“Seafair’s software helps us have better data integrity, which leads to better reporting and subsequently more informed decision making.”
Seafair says that it is currently in the process of building its the next generation of crewing software, to improve collaboration between shipping companies and internal and external stakeholders involved in crewing matters, to streamline operations and build better crewing intelligence.
“It’s an honour to be collaborating with a company with long history and global footprint such as Chandris Hellas. We see forward thinking users who have been providing us with great inputs on how to develop & expand our software, so we are excited to grow together & build a long-term, mutually beneficial partnership,” said Byron Antoniades, Seafair CTO.
