Vessel vetting solution to enhance maritime safety

Overview
The Client

A maritime software provider wanted to improve its existing application to help users judge whether a vessel is safe and legitimate to work with. Charterers, operators, and stakeholders who vet vessels needed one place to review vessel movements, ownership risk, and past checks, with workflows that could be configured for each organization.

Our client is a leading maritime software provider whose application is used by teams that manage and vet vessels. They needed a more holistic vessel vetting system. The client’s primary challenge was to identify vessel risks and screen for sanctions, using reliable vessel tracking data, without sending users to separate tools.

Challenges and Solutions

Challenges

Solutions

Challenges
Limited visibility into vessel movements Users could not easily identify where a vessel had been or whether its movements raised concerns.
Solutions
A vessel movement check shows port calls, tracking gaps, and likely unreported port visits, with live vessel tracking on a map.
Challenges
Difficult to identify unusual movement patterns Loitering, route changes, and ship-to-ship transfers were hard to spot.
Solutions
These patterns are flagged and displayed on a map, and high-risk areas are marked.
Challenges
Manual, fragmented screening Screening a vessel and the companies behind it was a separate, manual task.
Solutions
Check screens the vessel and the companies behind it, including its owners and operators, where they apply.
Challenges
Repeated checks Repeating a check that was already done recently wasted time and API calls.
Solutions
The application shows an existing result within a set number of days. Authorized users can still request a fresh check.
Challenges
Traceability and reporting Users needed to look back at earlier checks and share what they found.
Solutions
Every check is saved and listed in the application. Users can download PDF reports, and sanctions reports show the date and time of the check.
Challenges
Access Control Different users and organizations needed different levels of access.
Solutions
Administrators assign roles, decide who can force a fresh check, and adjust settings for each company.
