Smartflow expands to a complete Ship-Shore Management System

For the past four years, terminals have trusted Smartflow for Digital ISGOTT and vessel planning. Today, we are officially expanding our software into a complete Ship-Shore Management System for both seagoing vessels and inland barges. This expansion targets communication gaps at the berth, providing terminals with one unified platform to manage the entire vessel journey from nomination to departure.

The complete system now includes:

[NEW] Barge Reporting & Arrival: A major addition for inland shipping, particularly in the ARA region. Barges can create profiles and announce arrivals digitally, fully supporting ADN, VOW, and CDNI requirements.

[NEW] Advanced Vessel Clearance: Automate clearance with Q88 data extraction and real-time ban checks. Terminals can build internal databases for custom blacklisting and safety verification.

[UPGRADED] Vessel Planning & Tracking: Manage your berth schedule and track live ship locations using the same planning features our clients have relied on for years.

[UPGRADED] Digital ISGOTT & Custom Checklists: Run standard ISGOTT (Parts 1-9) or easily build custom safety checklists for any vessel or barge.

Solving the ship-shore interface is often just the starting point. Because jetty operators already use Smartflow for ISGOTT checks, extending the platform to other daily tasks makes operational sense. Instead of switching between different software or paper logbooks, teams use one system to pass on critical safety updates.

As Jelle Swanenberg, CEO, puts it: "Helping terminals globally has shown us exactly where the bottlenecks are. We are now extending from ISGOTT to the complete process, including the ARA barge market. By managing the journey from A to Z, integrated with your TMS, we're giving terminals a level of control that simply didn't exist before."
