What Dynamic Ship Supplier is

Dynamic Ship Supplier is a product from ShipCentric Corporation, a Denmark-based Microsoft partner that has supplied the maritime industry since 1988. It is standard business-management software for ship suppliers and chandlers built on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, covering financial management, inventory, vessel and customer management, and integrations with maritime e-commerce platforms such as ShipServ. It suits suppliers who want their whole back office inside one Dynamics 365 system.

Why teams look at Tidal instead

Tidal takes a different route. Rather than a full Dynamics back office, it is an AI-native layer that drops into the tools you already use: it connects to your Outlook or Gmail inbox and your catalogue, reads inbound email RFQs, matches every line to IMPA and ISSA codes at over 90% first-pass accuracy, applies your margins and returns a quote in under 30 minutes. It runs standalone or alongside an ERP, syncing confirmed orders and invoices out by API or CSV, goes live in about a week, and is publicly priced from $2,500 per month with no per-RFQ fees or volume caps.

When Dynamic Ship Supplier is still the right fit

If your goal is to run financials, inventory and ship-supply operations inside a single Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central platform, Dynamic Ship Supplier is built for exactly that, and Tidal does not replace general accounting or a Dynamics back office. Many suppliers keep their finance system and add Tidal to own the fast-moving quoting workflow. Tidal is the better fit when accurate AI quoting, quickly and with your current tools, is the priority.
