OrbitMI, a provider of maritime software and data products, has expanded its workflow capabilities through a new integration with CleanQuote, a pioneering vessel cleaning platform.

This collaboration further strengthens OrbitMI’s commitment to providing connected workflows by incorporating vessel cleaning and maintenance data into Orbit Reporter via API.

Vessel cleaning data

Western Bulk can now easily capture and access essential vessel cleaning data

Western Bulk, a company operating and chartering a fleet of as many as 160 vessels worldwide, currently utilises Orbit Reporter to gather data from the vessels they manage. 

By integrating CleanQuote into Orbit Reporter, Western Bulk can now easily capture and access essential vessel cleaning data, improving their ability to plan and execute hull cleaning and propeller polishing.

Optimise vessel performance

"CleanQuote helps the Western Bulk Ops team plan and execute hull cleaning and propeller polishing," said Maria Dellgren.

"By incorporating Orbit Reporter data into CleanQuote, we automate a previously manual task and ensure that important information, as Last Underwater inspection and Last propeller Polish, is available in all our systems when chartering a new vessel. This integration enhances our ability to manage maintenance schedules and optimise vessel performance.”

OrbitMI's API and documentation quality

"The speed and efficiency of this integration are a testament to OrbitMI's API and documentation quality,” said Mads Porsborg, Managing Director of CleanQuote. “We were able to deploy the integration in just a few days.” "This integration reflects our shared commitment to supporting our mutual customers and is another step toward breaking down data silos,” notes Ali Riaz, CEO of OrbitMI.

By integrating CleanQuote with Orbit Reporter, Western Bulk gains seamless access to vital vessel cleaning data, reducing manual work and enabling smarter decision-making. We continue to remove operational barriers, making it easier for maritime organisations to collect, process, and act on critical vessel data to optimise performance.”
