Overview

OMEGA is a flexible, powerful and user-friendly crew management system designed to meet the most de-manding requirements from global organizations.

The system is specially designed for the payroll- and crewing department, which is in charge of crew plan-ning and salary accounts.

OMEGA is a Danish product and has been developed in co-operation with several shipping companies dur-ing many years. We continue to develop the software in order to have one of the best products on the mar-ket.

Crew Management

The Crew Management module is the basic module and includes all necessary routines for managing the crew information. OMEGA contains a large and in-formative database with crew information such as

Personal Basic Data

Crew Document (Passport, Visa, SeamansBook)

Crew Certificates

Contract Information

Clothing information

Medical and Vaccinations

Next of Kin

Contract Information

Courses and Certificates

Sailing History & Sea Service

Evaluations and Appraisal Forms

Payroll related information

Crew Planning

The Crew Planning Module allows long term planning based on each ship’s Manning setup including infor-mation on service days (on board days), vacations, courses, travel days etc.

The module are using a graphic long term planning illus-tration (Gant Diagram) which gives the user the possibil-ity to apply different colours for different tasks.

Furthermore the system contains an advanced search routine which is used to find the optimal crew members for a scheduled crew change. Items like valid certifi-cates , leave, availability, check for overlapping sched-ules etc. are all in force during scanning.

Crew Change Letter, Travel Letter, Travel Plans, Crew Change Check List, Guarantee of Letter, Letter of Invita-tion etc. can be printed to each crew member or emailed directly to each person or an agency.

Travel Planning and Requests

OMEGA has functionality for requesting, reserving and changing flight tickets electronically to the travel agency system Crew.NET. It has been developed together with the Dutch company VCK Travel. No longer it is necessary to send a manual booking request by email. Neither to make a new reservation or change an existing one by phone. This way you will save up to about 30% on the time needed for making reservations the traditional way. It will lead to a big time saving on a yearly basis.

Crew History and Crew Sea Service

OMEGA has a detailed crew history, where every as-signment is registered and stored. All kinds of assign-ments can be entered e.g. on board period, time at home, courses, sickness and travel.

Also all previous sea service can be registered into the system including information on vessel types and position. When calculating sea service experience OMEGA uses both the crew history and sea service.

This also gives the possibility to print a Crew List based on any date presently or in the past.

Course- and Certificate Administration

The Course- and Certificate module contains routines for administration of each crew member’s certificates and courses.

It has several reports, incl. course letters, course list, list of expirations etc. It also includes automatic mon-itoring and warnings for the user, whenever an expiry date is approaching or overdue.

Course Planning

The Course Planning module offers routines when plan-ning courses for the crew members. Course letters can be printed, and when a course is approved each crew members Crew History and Course History are automati-cally updated. Built-in queries make it easy to find crew members at home and available for a certain course in the future. That way the course planning will be more efficient.

Warnings and Alerts

Whenever a course or certificate's expiry date is ap-proaching, the user will be warned on the screen. In this way, the Crew manager can secure and renew the certifi-cates in time. The warning can also be emailed directly to the crew member, so he/she can take action instantly.

OMEGA has many reports for printing courses and cer-tificates. E.g. the Expiry Report has the possibility to print which courses and certificates should be renewed within a giving period in the future. Another report prints all documents and certificates which is missing for each crew member accordingly the Certificate Template.

Certificate Template

In the certificate template it is possible to register all mandatory and company required certificates and cours-es. All templates are defined for each vessel and for each position and will make it possible for OMEGA to monitor and alert whenever documents are missing or about to expire. The validity period and warning period can be set up individually for each certificate. Already when plan-ning a crew member to a new position, checks will be performed against the certificate template and warning giving if not compliant with requirements.

SEAMANAGER - Rest Hour Registration

Rest Hour Section (ILO 180)

This section gives the Master and the ship owner full

control of the rest hour registration and a proper

documentation of any breach of regulations. A PDF

file is once a month generated for all onboard in or-

der to capture and document the details in the rest

hour registration. The PDF file is sent to the office for

archiving for 3 years according to the MLC 2006 re-

quirements. The operator can use pre-programmed

standard reason codes for violation of rest hour or

user defined reason codes. Violations are clearly

marked in red and are thus easy to identify and fol-

low up on, on the review screen.

Benefits

ILO180 rest hour support.

Real time ILO 180 validation of any registration.

Electronic documentation of crew’s rest hours.

Dynamic calendar (jump/double days) and stand-ard reason codes/explanations document when violations occur.

Monthly PDF/Excel data extracts are generated for documentation and archiving.

Allows delegation of rest hour registrations onboard; i.e. if allowed the individual crew mem-ber is able to maintain his rest hours using a per-sonal login or leave the task to his superior.

Planning of individual work/rest periods (14 days ahead with full validation real time).

The International Labour Organisation (ILO) has adopted the Maritime Labour Convention 2006 (MLC 2006).

A Maritime Labour Certificate (MLC) and a Declara-tion of Maritime Labour Compliance (DMLC) will be required to ensure compliance with the Convention for all ships above 500 tons in international trade.

This Convention shall come into force 12 months after the date on which there have been registered ratifications by at least 30 IMO Member states with a total share in the world gross tonnage of 33 per cent.

Thereafter, this Convention shall come into force for any Members 12 months after the date on which its ratification has been registered. It can be expected that the MLC 2006 enters into force in 2012/2013.

Who needs to be inspected and certified?

Regulation 5.1.3 - Maritime labour certificate and declaration of maritime labour compliance

This Regulation applies to ships of:

(a) 500 gross tonnage or over, engaged in interna-tional voyages; and

(b) 500 gross tonnage or over, flying the flag of a Member and operating from a port, or between ports, in another country.

For the purpose of this Regulation, international voyage means a voyage from a country to a port outside the country.

This Regulation also applies to any ship that flies the flag of a Member and is not covered by paragraph 1 of this Regulation, at the request of the ship owner to the Member concerned.

Ships from non-ratifying states shall be met by the “No more favourable treatment” ensuring inspec-tions for compliance on such ships.

Inspection will be carried out for

The items that will be inspected and found to meet national laws and regulations or other measures im-plementing the requirements of the Convention be-fore a MLC can be issued are:

1. Minimum age

2. Medical certification

3. Qualification of seafarer

4. Seafarer’s employment agreements

5. Use of any licensed or certified or regulated private recruitment and placement service

6. Hours of work or rest

7. Manning levels for the ship

8. Accommodation

9. On-board recreational facilities

10. Food and catering

11. Health and safety and accident pre-vention

12. On-board medical care

13. On-board complaint procedures

14. Payment of wages

The Maritime Labour Certification is the responsibility of the flag state administration.

Why is MLC 2006 a challenge?

To meet requirements officers onboard need to be able to extract the required information from the administration system(s) installed onboard. Respon-sible officers might face significant challenges in re-trieving the relevant information from various non-standardized tools and solutions – or even hardcopy files etc.

What will happen if a vessel is non-

compliant?

The authorized inspection officer can take steps to ensure that the ship shall not proceed to sea until any non-conformities have been rectified, or until the au-thorized officer has accepted a plan of action to recti-fy such non-conformities and is satisfied that the plan will be implemented in an expeditious manner
