Blue Water Shipping is a big company that must meet various industry standards and requirements. By implementing the CertWare platform we immediately found several processes in our operation that we were able to simply remove. These processes were removed because they did not create any value.

 

HSEQ has always been of highest priority in Blue Water Shipping. In order for us to be effective at all time, we must be proactive, especially as it relates to equipment ability (concerning both quality assurance and re-certification). Looking solely at Esbjerg, we have several locations. Each location requires the same type of equipment and machinery; thus, they will need to borrow from one another. CertWare has enabled us, despite the complexity of a broad selection of equipment and various locations, to maintain a 100 % accurate picture of all elements/ equipment.

This means, for instance, that we will be able to create a solution (in a much faster manner) that will match our customers’ inquiry for a special operation or specific logistic solution. We know exactly where the equipment is located, as we also know before starting the operation, if the equipment will need to be re-certified.

Another great example is the certification of our PPE (Personnel protection equipment). Initially, we used to spend a month checking all the certificates. Now our suppliers can update every certificate directly in CertWare and notify us if a specific tool or piece of equipment requires further attention.
CertWare is very user-friendly and the team behind it always pays attention to changes that can optimize the processes, even more than already achieved.
I (recommend) will give CertWare my recommendations as a great solution for a certificate and file management platform.
