What is boat maintenance software?

A Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) is a technological tool designed to optimize and simplify the management of a fleet in maritime transportation, whether it involves passenger or cargo ships, or offshore vessels. It allows managers and crews to track, plan, and document preventive and corrective maintenance tasks while ensuring compliance with manufacturer standards and recommended timelines.

Typically, such software includes features like spare parts and equipment inventory management, maintenance history tracking, scheduling of periodic inspections, and generation of performance reports. By centralizing and automating these tasks, CMMS helps reduce vessel downtime, enhance onboard safety, extend equipment lifespan, and optimize navigations both offshore and along coastlines.
