CHART-TRACK
is an advanced system of inventory management that enables
vessels to receive the tracings and Notices to Mariners
by Inmarsat. This effectively means that vessels will
have this important navigational data much sooner than
if sent by post. CHART-TRACK is supplied on a subscription
basis, the cost of which is greatly recovered by the saving
in time and the increase in safety.
CHART-TRACK is fully integrated within the folio management
system and includes on-board software to make the management
of your chart & publication inventory much simpler.
The vessel's inventory is synchronised with a shore based
server every week and we are therefore kept up-to-date
with any changes made in each vessel's inventory.
With CHART-TRACK, you can easily select those charts and
publications which are presently 'active' i.e. in current
usage. This means that the corrections you will receive
by Inmarsat will be specific to your 'active' charts only
, cutting out the need to sort through the Notice to Mariners
in order to find relevant corrections for your charts.
Furthermore, only new editions of Active charts or publications
will be replaced.
CHART-TRACK also provides cumulative correction lists
for UKHO publications such as list of lights, sailing
directions and radio signals. This considerably simplifies
the process of correcting these publications by removing
the need to read through a large quantity of back issues
of Notices to Mariners.
CHART-TRACK includes an automatic chart correction log
and a number of built-in controls allowing shipboard personnel
to check easily, which corrections have been received
and printed off, as well as the date of reception.
CHART-TRACK provides a traceable record of all activity
surrounding the management and correction of charts and
publications and therefore fits in as an integral part
of a vessel's ISM procedures.
CHART-TRACK represents a major breakthrough in increased
safety on board. It has been designed to be very easy
to use , requiring the minimum of training but providing
the maximum of benefits.
CHART-TRACK Manager
CHART-TRACK Manager is an internet access that is made
available to shipowners/managers for use onshore.
CHART-TRACK Manager
allows password-protected access to all information
regarding each vessel in a particular fleet. Managers
can track all activities that have occurred on their
ships with regard to update requests, print-offs,
changes in inventory etc.
Added functionality
enables managers to send orders directly to their
chart supplier or validate orders issued by the
vessel. These orders can also be tracked for status.
If so desired, the
manager can be the one responsible for activating
and de-activating charts on a particular vessel.
A demo CD rom and brochure is available on request
outlining the functionality of this exceptional
programme.
