Oldendorff Carriers adds e-procurement capabilities

German shipowner Oldendorff Carriers has partnered with Greek company Procureship to digitalise procurement processes for its fleet of dry bulk vessels.

The Procureship e-procurement platform utilises automation and Machine Learning to increase the efficiency of purchasing operations, providing access to marine suppliers and service providers as well as a range of related data to support purchasing decisions.

“In a fast-paced purchasing environment, it is important that we have access to efficient and intuitive software. We believe that we have found this with Procureship, and we are looking forward to the collaboration,” said Henning Wegner, Head of Procurement at Oldendorff Carriers.

Oldendorff Carriers, which operates approximately 675 bulkers and transports about 380 million tons of bulk cargo annually, is the latest German shipowner to utilise the Procureship platform, following Neu Seeschiffahrt, Orion Reederei, TB Marine, and Zeaborn Ship Management.

“Our latest partnership with Oldendorff Carriers is a testament to the extensive growth Procureship has seen over the past few years,” said Grigoris Lamprou, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Procureship.

“We continue to see more and more vessel owners enhancing their operational capabilities by using the right digital tools and using real-time data to improve their decision-making.”
