TESTIMONIALS

Who has benefited

3rd Officer

"SOL-X really helps me in maintaining a very good watch of the safety of the crew working on deck. I can actually see them, their whereabouts on deck or where they are on the vessel."

Chief Officer

"It’s a good system. I can see how many permits are already active in our daily work, and how much time is remaining for termination. I can easily monitor crew from SOL-X"

Master

"When it comes to audit preparation, everything is archived. All I have to do is go to the dashboard, go to the archive, and retrieve the permit. And from the office point of view, I don’t have to sift any, scan or send emails. Definitely it saves a lot of time; saves the environment."

Vessel Superintendent

"Pump Room is a hazardous area. With the system, we know when the Pump Room man or anybody who went to the Pump Room is still in there and if there is no movement, we can act fast."

2nd Officer

"With SOL-X, you save a lot of time. When approving a Permit To Work, it avoids the need to run up and down, here and there, to look for the Master for review and sign off"

Marine Superintendent

"Crew can press the Crew Assist button if they have any difficulty....if somebody has any injury, or some sort of other difficulty, they can always ask for assistance. So that is how he helps himself."
