MF Shipping to roll out Maindeck

MF Shipping Group has agreed a deal to roll out the Maindeck software platform to manage maintenance and repair projects across its fleet, following a successful Proof of Concept (POC) trial.

Based in the Netherlands, MF Shipping Group partly owns and manages a fleet of 54 vessels, comprising oil product/chemical tankers, RoRo, Ropax, multipurpose vessels, self-unloaders, and cement carriers.

“Being able to use my phone to add updates and variation orders is a huge plus,” said Ellen Brugma, Technical Superintendent at MF Shipping Group.

“Adding images and progress becomes a fun part of my job as I’m walking around and inspecting various work, and when I get back to the office I don’t have a backlog of things to add, everything is already taken care of.”

“On prior projects I have had to spend about an hour each day writing the daily report, and I’ve never really been satisfied with the result. With Maindeck, I was able to produce and share high-quality reports in less than five minutes.”
