Charter Party Dashboard provides a one click overview of Charter Party performance for all ships in the fleet. The dashboard is built by continuous monitoring of all constituents of a charter party, such as speed, consumption, wave, wind, current and deviation from route. A traffic light system is used to display compliance or non-compliance providing immediate overview. A deep drill down to detailed time series data is available ship-wise for each constituent parameter.

Key Features

• Provides a quick overview of charter party performance for all ships in fleet
• Traffic light system for summary information, detailed drill down possible with a click
• Continuous monitoring of charter party parameters (speed, consumption, weather, route deviation) available in a single dashboard
• Provides the possibility to include manual information related to a particular parameter
• Ability to integrate with wave radar for very accurate measurement of wave, current and speed through water information

Remote monitoring and diagnostic (RMD) allows the user to graphically view a parameter or a group of parameters in real-time to assist in analysis and troubleshooting. The module also allows selection of historical data, thus allowing a user to revisit any parameter at a point/period of time for problem solving.

The module allows access to all data connected to the SMARTShip platform (device data onboard, manual entry data, 3rd party integrated data, and custom derived calculation data) and allows for creation of customisable favourite groups for viewing.
