As the shipping industry is going digital at a steady fast rate, access to digital documents and data becomes ever more critical.
In modern shipping, there is a clear need for digitally connected systems that can work together efficiently. As the amount of data traffic increases at a rapid pace, the ability to manage data transfer on challenging bandwidth conditions across a fleet with minimal manual interactions becomes essential. This was a key motivation for Klaveness Ship Management choosing Dualog and completing the rollout of the new data transfer solution in record-breaking time.
Torvald Klaveness is known as a pioneering, data-driven and safety-oriented shipping company with both hands firmly on the digitalisation wheel. When Klaveness Ship Management began looking for a solution that could help them streamline information sharing and data replication across their fleet, the demands were specific; The new file transfer solution should be flexible, easy to use, hardware-independent and easy to implement.

"In our continuous work to improve safety, security and efficiency across the fleet we needed to improve collaboration and information sharing between office and vessel. With Dualog Drive, we replaced many manual and often email-based processes with digitised, integrated and hands-off solutions. Fewer emails with large attachments are just one of many achievements."
