01What has changed

Procurement now sits on the compliance path, not beside it

A missing spare or the wrong consumable used to be a cost problem. Today it is just as likely to show up as an inspection finding, a deferred job or a defect that has to be explained.

ISM Code

The company must maintain the ship in line with its rules and regulations, and identify equipment whose sudden failure could cause hazardous situations, which depends on the right spares being on board.

SIRE 2.0

Inspectors follow maintenance into the store room and ask the crew about defects, deferred jobs and spares for critical equipment.

RightShip RISQ 3.2

Dry bulk inspections look at the condition of equipment and the support the vessel receives from shore to keep it working.

PSC, Flag & terminals

Defects left open for want of spares, or equipment without valid certificates, are common causes of deficiencies.

TMSA 3 & DryBMS

Both frameworks look for controlled maintenance and spares management, and for supplier and cost decisions based on data rather than habit.

02The pain it causes

What this is costing ship managers today

Procurement touches every department, and when it runs on email and memory, every department pays for it.

Requisitions built from memory

Crew note what to order in notebooks and spreadsheets, so items are missed, duplicated or ordered against the wrong equipment.

Hard-to-compare quotes

Vendor quotes arrive in different formats by email, and comparing them takes time the purchaser does not have.

Budget surprises

Spend is often seen only after invoices arrive, when it is too late to stop a vessel running over budget.

No end-to-end visibility

Nobody can say quickly where a requisition is: awaiting approval, quoted, ordered, partly delivered or received.

Disconnected systems

Procurement tools that do not talk to the PMS, budget or accounting system force the same data to be entered more than once.

03How it is managed today, and how it should be

Email chains, spreadsheets and phone calls — or one flow from wishlist to delivery

Procurement should start from the equipment record, follow a controlled workflow and keep budget in view at every step.

05Why Procure X7

What sets Procure X7 apart for your fleet

Procure X7 is simple to use for the end user and robust for shipboard staff, technical and marine teams and procurement teams ashore.

01

As easy as a shopping cart

A wishlist system lets the crew add items as they find them and turn them into a requisition when it is time to order.

02

Linked to the equipment

Requisitions are interlinked with equipment, spares and consumables masters, and grouped by equipment so orders stay accurate.

03

Budget in view

Integration with budget and accounting, with variance alerts, means spend is checked before it is committed.

04

Better-supplied ships and tighter spend

Fewer open defects

Requisitions raised against equipment masters reduce wrong or missing parts, so maintenance and defect rectification are not held up waiting for spares.

Better buying decisions

Vendor comparison reports put quotes side by side, so purchasers choose on price, terms and availability rather than habit.

Less time chasing

End-to-end tracking and email workflows replace calls and inbox searches to find out where an order stands.

07AI, pattern recognition and ease of use

Patterns in spend, and a process the crew will actually use

Structured requisitions and vendor data show the office where money and time are going, while the crew get an ordering process as familiar as online shopping.

AI built in Pattern recognition Designed for seafarers

Variance alerts

Spend that moves away from budget is flagged as it happens, not at month end.

Vendor and spend trends

Comparison reports and end-to-end records build a history of vendors, prices and delivery performance across the fleet.

Designed for ships and seafarers

A wishlist-and-checkout flow means crew can raise accurate requisitions without procurement training.

08Real-time dashboards and analytics

Every requisition and its status in one place

Requisitions are organised by stage, so the crew and the office see exactly where each order stands.

Procure X7 submitted requisitions list showing requisition number, title, date, priority, creator and status such as new requisition, GRA created, PO created, partially delivered and delivered
  • Tabs for drafts, items awaiting HOD approval, submitted and past records
