01

Plan the crew

See who is onboard, who is available and who needs relief.

Recruitment, assignments, rotations, certificates and availability share the same crew record, with explained factors for relief planning.

  • Recruitment pipeline and roster
  • Rotation timeline and relief ranking
  • Certificates, training and tenure
02

Calculate pay

Bring wage rules and monthly inputs into an itemised run.

Date-effective wage scales, agreement rules, overtime, allowances, deductions and allotments produce reviewable payslips and liabilities.

  • Calculate, review, approve and pay stages
  • Multi-currency totals
  • Itemised payslip lines
03

Move the money

Prepare payment files and keep the finance effect connected.

Net wages and allotments can be grouped by currency into bank-ready files. Wage cost and liabilities reach finance without duplicate entry.

  • Per-currency payment runs
  • IBAN, BIC and remittance data
  • Payroll cost and liability treatment
04

Personal service

Give seafarers a clear view of their own records.

The online Crew Portal shows personal payslips, certificates, training, requests, leave, appraisals and private documents behind ownership checks.

  • Mobile-first web portal
  • Personal requests and decisions
  • Appraisal acknowledgement
