INTEGRATED, FUTURE-PROOF SOFTWARE FOR SHIP OPERATIONS

BASSnet™ Fleet Management Systems are an integrated, modular-based software solution. This allows shipping companies to implement the solution which meets their immediate needs, then add other BASS modules as their business evolves over time - without having to worry about expensive or complicated compatibility issues.

BASSnet™ Fleet Management Systems have been developed on Microsoft.NET, a stable, future-proof solution. The stability of .Net is especially important in shipping, where shipboard IT environments are vulnerable to a broad range of usage scenarios and various technological standards. And because competency levels vary from user to user and crews change frequently, it is vital to have a robust, easy-to-use and stable system in place.

BASSnet™ Fleet Management Systems are certified by Den Norske Veritas (DNV) and been awarded the Microsoft ISV certification.

SUPPORT AND REMOTE MONITORING OF SHIPBOARD SOFTWARE SYSTEMS

For many ship operators, supporting shipboard software systems is expensive, labour intensive and complex, especially when using older, conventional software technology. Often, to ensure these systems continue to function, shipowners are forced to monitor them closely and install upgrades, software patches, or fixes throughout their entire fleet, vessel by vessel. BASSnet™ Fleet Management Systems offer future-proof support and remote monitoring of shipboards software systems.

BASS also backs its customers through a global support network with 24/7 availability, providing advanced diagnostic tools (Dr.BASS) and reliable, technical and operational expertise.
