Ocean Grow/OGS Smart
Ship-Shore System

A digital platform bridging ship and shore

OGS Smart brings marine document control, spare parts procurement, crew records and compliance reporting into a single platform, so owners and shipboard teams can work together in real time from anywhere.

What is OGS Smart

Conventional ship management relies on paper records and telephone follow-up — a process that is slow and prone to error. Ocean Grow's OGS Smart platform consolidates ISM documentation, drydock and spare parts requisitions, crew certificate control and flag state reporting into a single digital interface.

Wherever the vessel is trading, shipboard personnel can reach the platform over satellite connection to upload reports, raise requisitions and review certificate expiry alerts, while shore-based managers approve and track each item in real time.

Core Platform Features(Sample content for demonstration)

Certificate Validity Control
Automatically tracks expiry dates for DOC, SMC, ISSC and crew certificates, issuing reminders 90 and 30 days in advance to avoid detention risk from lapsed certification.
CII Monitoring
Calculates each vessel's Carbon Intensity Indicator rating in real time with a voyage data entry interface, helping owners forecast the annual rating and prepare corrective action plans.
Spare Parts Procurement
Requisitions raised on board notify shore management immediately for online approval, quotation comparison and ordering, with full tracking of procurement progress through to delivery.
Crew Records Management
Centralises STCW, medical and seafarer's book certification for the full crew, with sign-on/sign-off records and SEA contract archiving available on demand for Flag State inspection.
Ship-Shore Messaging
A built-in encrypted messaging module supports text, file and image transfer between vessel and shore, with every exchange logged and retrievable for audit purposes.
Audit Report Upload
Internal audit and external survey findings are uploaded directly to the platform and linked automatically to the corresponding NCR record, ensuring corrective actions are closed out.
