Norwegian software provider BASS has launched BASSnet 2.11, a next generation fleet management system designed to streamline operational and environmental processes.

“BASSnet is an integrated cloud-based system covering all major maritime areas,” confirmed Per Steinar Upsaker, CEO & managing director at BASS Software. “Our multi-platform software has extensive features and functionality, mobile apps and API integrations for end-to-end processes. We’ve created an effective all-in-one solution in BASSnet 2.11.”

Owners and managers of ships and offshore assets will also benefit from the company’s Business Intelligence (BI) Dashboard for in-depth insight on fleet-wide operational data.

“Customers need an instant overview of fleet-wide data, in a way that makes sense to them and aligns with their business needs,” said Martin Bjornebye, VP of research & development at BASS. “The BI Dashboard does this brilliantly on any device with an internet connection. Users gain in-depth business insights in user-curated dashboards and can also drill-down to transaction details.”

The solution leverages Microsoft Power BI Embedded for exceptional data visualisation. With the BASSnet BI Dashboard, it’s easy to understand complex fleet-wide data to better plan ahead.

In BASSnet 2.11, BASS has also further optimised each individual module in the software suite for greater efficiency.

BASSnet Maintenance helps deliver cost-efficient maintenance. It enables ad-hoc corrective maintenance, preventive condition monitoring, and defects and claims management. BASS’s Fleet Management module has a centralised equipment library for optimised inventory management, efficient database creation, and maintenance tracking & strategy management.

BASSnet Procurement enables customers to benefit from end-to-end procurement to pay processes, cost-effective material supply management, the convenience of online approvals, a simplified quotation process, and easy visibility of supplier contracts. BASSnet SAFIR (Safety and Improvement Reporting) has also been enhanced to ensure safety compliance with efficient reporting & event analysis, easing preparation for audits & inspections. Customers can avoid recurrences with convenient fleet-wide experience sharing, detailed event reporting overview, trend analysis & performance indicators.

The company’s HR Management (Crewing & Payroll) system now also includes a smart planning feature for simplified crew planning as part of the software upgrade.

In addition, BASS has developed multiple mobile apps, including an Inspection app for digital audits and inspections on-site, an Inventory app for stock-takes while walking onboard ships, and a self-service Crew Portal. Third party integrations to Q88, eCommerce and Financial Adapters also add to BASSnet’s openness and flexibility.
