Strategic Launches Shipping Support Tools

Strategic Software, provider of communications software and shipping database applications to the shipbroking and shipping industries, has unveiled a new generation of the company's internet-based shipping support tools. Built on the StrategicIMX positions and cargo order exchange, launched last November, TankerlMX is specially designed to support and streamline the communications flow in connection with the chartering and operations of tankers.

TankerlMX has been created by Strategic with support from three leading tanker brokerage houses — Dietze & Associates, McQuilling Brokerage and Charles R. Weber. Release 1.0 of TankerlMX was developed in less than six months, delivered on time and within budget. The product simplifies the management of ships positions and cargo orders, thus reducing time spent on collating positions lists and cargo orders and communicating such reports to counter parties.

The user-friendly TankerlMX eliminates repetitive manual processes and reduces paperwork through collaborative sharing of voyage data in a private and confidential environment. TankerlMX's Post-Fixture functionality will be released later this year, allowing charterers, owners, brokers, agents, inspectors and other parties to a tanker voyage the ability to capture data at source. The sharing of voyage data in real time will enable better vessel tracking, optimize terminal planning and improve document management.
