Tool Sprawl Risk Audit — Maritime and Shipping

Find out how much spreadsheet and SaaS sprawl is costing Maritime and Shipping — and where a purpose-built internal tool pays off.

Signs of tool sprawl in Maritime and Shipping

  • Port congestion blows up the schedule — vessels wait days at anchor, slot allocation is a phone call between agents, and the schedule reliability the customer SLA promises is structurally unachievable.
  • Fuel costs are 40-60% of voyage opex and IMO 2030 and 2050 decarbonization targets are landing — without per-voyage and per-leg fuel-efficiency analytics, the energy transition is a board strategy with no operational basis.
  • Bunker procurement, fuel quality testing, and consumption reconciliation are scattered across operations, technical, and finance — fuel disputes with charterers are constant and the firm pays the difference.
  • Charter party agreements, bills of lading, letters of indemnity, and operational documentation are still passed as PDFs across email — chartering and operations teams spend half the day on document workflow.

1.Where does your core operational data live?
2.How many tools/spreadsheets hold 'the truth' for one workflow?
