Solving real industry challenges
By placing home-grown talent at its core, Onboard Tracker™ is brought to life by industry for industry.
A team of passionate technical experts recognise that in tomorrow’s world, operations need to be done faster and slicker.

For Global E&C, an overhaul of digital operations was the ideal opportunity to introduce the business to a new and improved way of working. In just four months, Onboard Tracker™ was brought in to support the workforce with different departments tapping into different benefits. For the logistics team, there is now an ability to input, track and administer all crew rotations, absences and holidays, to keep people moving around the UK safely and efficiently while the training and competence divisions are centrally managing all matrices, expiries, candidate journeys and more, and HR is managing employee contracts, personal information, appraisals to name but a few.
Regardless of the need, the outcomes are consistent – streamlined processes, support for secure home working, increased visibility and improved reporting.

An integrated online hub provides a unified solution to manage all aspects of offshore operations, including personnel logistics, competency, certification, training, and HR playing a vital role in ensuring the safety and compliance of the workforce.
With around half of Onboard Tracker™ clients now operating in the subsea sector, several subsea and marine-focused improvements have been made to enable clients to manage key operations such as saturation diving time, lieu management, leave liquidation and minimum manning levels to track resource gaps, and plan and forecast future personnel issues. One recent addition to the client base in this sphere was TechnipFMC who now join the ranks of the likes of Subsea 7, Boskalis and Semco Maritime all of whom use the online hub to manage personnel logistics and planning, crew rotations, training, certification and competence.
From operator to SME, the customer-driven software helps organisations manage more with less, delivering ongoing functionality enhancements that everyone benefits from. Customers contribute to the product roadmap and these advances help shape their own digital roadmap to unlock efficiencies and scale their business without increasing crewing overheads.
