Veson Nautical and Marcura Expand Partnership to Streamline Demurrage Claims
Maritime technology specialists Veson Nautical and Dubai-based Marcura are entering into an expanded partnership to connect the Marcura Claims laytime and demurrage management system with Veson’s IMOS freight contract management and voyage execution system, giving clients more options for managing demurrage claims.
The integration of Marcura Claims with IMOS is intended to eliminate a previously manual process and ensure claims data is synchronised automatically across systems, improving data quality.
Marcura Claims pulls voyage details from IMOS, so clients know when a claim can be initiated. Once a claim has been processed in Marcura Claims, the system automatically creates a corresponding claim in IMOS, including full laytime calculations and voyage status.
Dylan Ray Mace, Vice President, Sales and Partnerships at Marcura, says “Connecting Marcura Claims with IMOS means the voyage data a claim depends on is already there when the claim is opened. Customers spend less time moving information between systems and more time on the claim itself, whether they are the issuing or settling party.”
Marcura and Veson claim that by working together they have created a faster, more automated workflow that reduces the risk of potential errors and gives customers more time to prioritise the aspects of the claim that actually impact the voyage’s profit and loss equation.
