How can ship owners save time and resources on charterer questionnaires?
As a ship owner, or someone representing one, chances are that you are familiar with the cumbersome and yet tedious task to fill out a vessel description questionnaire from someone interested in chartering your vessel.
Although it probably has, at least until now, not been the most enjoyable part of your job, it is still quite important to get those questionnaires sorted out quickly and reliably since errors can damage the reputation of your good company that in worst case can become quite expensive.
Simply put, Ankeri Platform helps you to keep track of all vessel related information required by charterers, whether it is particulars, files or events, and give you a direct mapping to the most commonly used pre-charter questionnaire templates.
- Uploaded questionnaires are automatically recognised and filled with already available information
- Questionnaires can be shared with others in a tracked process where a responsible party is assigned to the task along with internal and external contributors
- When filling out the questionnaire, the information and files added become available for filling out questionnaires from other charterers
- Questionnaires can be confirmed and sent along with attached files by a click of a button
In addition to making your job a bit more enjoyable, there are several cost reducing benefits you gain by using Ankeri Platform for filling out the charterer questionnaires.
- Greatly reduced time spent on searching for correct data, correct files, coordinating and sharing with relevant parties, etc.
- Gradually building a database of verified and validated information for your whole fleet, contributing to future time saving when filling out questionnaires
- Auditable overview of past and present questionnaires with information about who filled out which information and when
All this contributes to faster response times, better information and improved reputation among your peers.
