Profiles
For charterers
Share questionnaires with ship owners and maintain detailed catalog of all your chartering prospects - with validated information ready to be accessed and applied when needed
To make trusted data-driven decisions, every charterer needs access to information and data on ships in the charter market.
This data is usually attained by sending out questionnaire documents that the shipowner (or associates) is expected to answer as soon as possible with great attention to detail since every erroneous answer can potentially have a large and unwanted ripple effect.
Needless to say, answering a 300+ data fields questionnaire in Excel or worse in PDF is bound to be time-consuming and generate some errors. Subsequently, upon receiving the answered questionnaire, the file will have to be imported into the charterer's systems, resulting in errors generated by the unintentionally wrong handling of the questionnaire document at the owner's side.
Simply put, this convoluted process needs an upgrade. Ankeri Profiles provides the charterer with the tools to centrally store and manage all ships' information profile and data, and send out requests for ship information that only need the owner to input the required information in a web page form that subsequently ensures that the data is validated and consistent with the required format.
