Why Searching Ship Documentation Wastes So Much Time.pdf

Modern ships are equipped with advanced technology, but documentation often lags behind—scattered manuals, outdated PDFs, and no smart search tools. This slows down inspections, training, and compliance checks.

This presentation explains why searching ship documentation wastes valuable time and how OceanDocs AI solves the problem with document intelligence. Features like smart search, compliance mapping (SOLAS, ISM, MARPOL), version control, and offline access make audits faster, reduce errors, and keep crews inspection-ready


Learn how OceanDocs AI turns long manuals into fast, organized, and reliable resources for the modern maritime industry.

1. WHY SEARCHING SHIP
DOCUMENTATION WASTES
SO MUCH TIME

2. Thynk Unlimited THE PROBLEM
Modern ships are advanced, but
documentation has not kept up. Finding
the right section in a 500-page manual
still takes too long.

3. WHY MANUALS ARE HARD
TO USE
Ship manuals are:
Scattered across PDFs and binders
Poorly structured
Missing smart search tools

4. COMPLIANCE PRESSURE
Port inspections are stricter than
ever.
Delays in finding documents = fines,
failed inspections, or denied entry.

5. OceanDocs AI uses document
intelligence to:
Enable smart search
Map compliance (SOLAS, ISM,
MARPOL)
Control versions
Allow offline access
OCEANDOCS AI TO THE
RESCUE

6. IMPACT FOR HSEQ TEAMS
With OceanDocs AI, crews can:
Respond faster in audits
Reduce errors
Prove compliance easily
Train new crew more effectively

7. Ships use smart tools for navigation and
logistics, and documentation should be
no different. Long manuals are
necessary, but they should not slow
ships down.
OceanDocs AI fills this gap by making
documentation fast, organised, and
inspection-ready.
