Top Glory Marine (TGM) has launched a web-based portal allowing ship managers and vessel crews to submit waste disposal requests and stock reports online, reducing the administrative work involved in arranging waste collection.
The Vessel Portal provides a centralised system for submitting disposal requests and weekly waste stock reports, reducing email correspondence and the need for follow-up information between vessels and TGM.
Vessels can also submit their onward schedules alongside waste information, allowing TGM to assess disposal requirements and identify suitable collection options earlier in the voyage. This is intended to reduce the likelihood of ship managers having to arrange waste collection at short notice or at a less suitable port.
“We know how much administration ship managers and crew already have to deal with, and waste reporting should not add more work than necessary,” said Silke Fehr, Managing Director of Top Glory Marine.
“The aim was to make it quicker and easier: the vessel enters the information directly and we have what we need to start dealing with the request.”
