DESCROLabs · Consulting & Engineering

Industries · Maritime & transportation

Keep every crew credentialed and every vessel and truck moving.

For towboat and barge operators, offshore supply fleets, shipyards, port and terminal services, and trucking and logistics companies. We tie crew credentials, maintenance, inspections, and dispatch into one place, and keep the office, the dock, and the wheelhouse connected.

What it could look like

Fleet board in the office. Checklist in the wheelhouse or the cab.

Common problems

Sound familiar?

Problems we hear most often in maritime and transportation. They are where projects usually start, not a list of deliverables.

  • Credentials in a spreadsheetA lapsed MMC, TWIC, medical certificate, or CDL is found at the gate, not a month before.
  • Maintenance on paper logsHours, work orders, and inspection findings live in binders on the boat or in the truck.
  • Dispatch by phone and textCrew changes, loads, and tows are tracked in someone's head and a group chat.
  • Audit week is a scrambleCoast Guard, Subchapter M, DOT, or customer audits mean days of pulling records together.

What we'd build

Built around the boat, the yard, and the road.

Crew credentials

MMC, TWIC, medical certificates, CDLs, and company training tracked with reminders before they lapse, and assignments blocked when a required one has.

Maintenance & inspections

Hour- and date-based maintenance, daily checklists that work offline, and findings that turn into work orders with photos.

Audit-ready records

Safety management, Subchapter M, DOT, and customer audit records kept as you work, so an audit is a report, not a week of digging.

Dispatch & crew changes

One board for tows, loads, and crew changes, with automatic texts to the people who need to know.

Connectivity & IT

Office, yard, and dock Wi-Fi, vessel and truck connectivity, rugged tablets, and fractional IT so the systems keep working away from shore.

AI on your records

Ask about a vessel's history, a crew member's credentials, or a past incident in plain words, with answers that cite the source.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Which credentials can you track?

Merchant Mariner Credentials, TWIC cards, medical certificates, CDLs and DOT medical cards, plus your company's own training and certifications.

Does the vessel checklist work without signal?

Yes. Checklists and logs work offline and sync when the boat or truck is back in range.

Can this help with Subchapter M and DOT audits?

Yes. Records are kept as the work happens, so an audit becomes a report instead of a week of digging.
