Bluetracker[express] facilitates manual entry of all relevant consumption indicators on board and prepares the values in a standardized manner for further analysis on shore. A predefined event matrix, guided data input and integrated plausibility check not only minimize errors, but also ensure that reports are completely filled out and thus guarantee the data quality required for comparative analyses.

With the enhanced software version Bluetracker[express], the core elements of the Bluetracker software comprise manual and automatic data collection, visualization and monitoring of the data collected, as well as the analysis of same. The system also offers functions for optimizing a ship's trim and consumptions.

 

Robert Gärtner, CEO of INTERSCHALT, explained, "Bluetracker combines options for checking consumption and increasing efficiency. The ship owner and manager can access all ship and consumption data via a web browser worldwide and at any time, meaning that sustainable strategies for optimizing performance can be developed. Bluetracker[express] is embedded in this structure and expands previous options to include manual reporting on board. Only a standardized and error-free data collection enables a reliable evaluation and analysis within fleets, ship classes or routes."
