Ship Management Software

Keep every vessel compliant and running

Tidal connects planned maintenance, certificates and surveys, defects and purchasing in one platform, so technical and fleet teams always know what is due, what is overdue, and what it will take to put it right.

Technical management is a lot of moving parts held together by memory and inboxes. A survey window opens next month, a critical pump is running past its overhaul hours, a deficiency from the last port state control is still open, and the spare to close it is stuck in a quote somewhere. Miss one of those and the cost is measured in detentions and off-hire, not admin time.

Tidal keeps the technical picture in one place. Maintenance is scheduled against the equipment register, certificates and surveys carry live due dates, defects are tracked to close-out, and the purchasing to fix something is tied straight back to the component that needs it. The office and the vessel work from the same record.

The core of technical management, connected

A planned maintenance system that talks to compliance and purchasing — instead of three tools that don't.

Planned maintenance (PMS)

Schedule jobs by running hours or calendar against the equipment register, and see what is due, overdue or postponed across the fleet.

Certificates & surveys

Track every certificate and survey with due dates and status so nothing lapses before an inspection or port call.

Defects & deficiencies

Log defects and port state control findings, assign them, and follow each one through to a documented close-out.

Equipment-linked requisitions

Raise a requisition straight from a job or defect, tied to the component, so purchasing sources the right part first time.

Compliance records

Keep the maintenance, certificate and repair history that ISM, SOLAS and class audits ask for, ready to produce on request.

Fleet overview

One view across the fleet showing overdue maintenance, expiring certificates and open defects, so attention goes where it is needed.

Where ship management software earns its keep

Port state control readiness

Walk into an inspection with maintenance, certificates and closed deficiencies all traceable, and fewer findings to argue.

Dry dock planning

Build the work list from open defects and due maintenance, and carry it straight into project purchasing.

Crew changeover

Hand a vessel over with the full technical history intact, so a new chief engineer isn't starting blind.

Fleet growth

Onboard new tonnage onto the same maintenance and compliance standard instead of a new spreadsheet per ship.

What good ship management software gives you

Ship management software, answered

What is ship management software?
It is the system technical and fleet teams use to run vessels day to day, bringing planned maintenance, certificates and surveys, defects and equipment-linked purchasing into one place so a ship stays compliant with ISM, SOLAS and class requirements.
Does Tidal include a planned maintenance system?
Yes. Tidal holds the equipment register for each vessel and schedules maintenance by running hours or calendar interval. Crew record completed jobs against the component, and the office sees what is due, overdue or postponed across the fleet.
How does it help with class and flag inspections?
Certificates, surveys and defects are tracked with due dates and status, so nothing lapses unnoticed. When an inspector asks, the maintenance history, certificate and the purchasing behind a repair are all linked and easy to produce.
Does maintenance connect to purchasing?
Yes. A defect or maintenance job can raise a requisition tied to the exact component, which flows into Tidal's procurement workflow — so the part you order is the part the equipment needs.
