OrbitMI Inc. - Experts & Thought Leaders

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.”

OrbitMI, a pioneer provider of maritime SaaS software, announces that Istanbul-based Statu Shipping has deployed its compliance solutions across its fleet of 20 bulk carriers.  Rather than handling compliance as a passive, post-voyage process, Statu Shipping can now monitor and manage compliance outcomes in real time, optimizing efficiency, reducing costs, and ensuring regulatory adherence throughout the voyage. Reducing CII Impact Using Orbit’s compliance capabilities operators can configure real-time alerts on deviations in speedBy using Orbit’s compliance capabilities, Statu Shipping can simulate voyages to assess their impact on the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII), estimate the number of EU Allowances (EUAs) required under the Emissions Trading System (ETS), and forecast FuelEU costs.  Operators can configure real-time alerts on deviations in speed, estimated time of arrival (ETA), and fuel consumption, enabling early intervention to optimize fuel use and lower emissions. Streamlining Compliance “With regulatory requirements becoming more complex, we needed a compliance solution that goes beyond simple reporting,” said Ercüment Ahmet Solakarı, Managing Director at Statu Shipping. “Orbit allows us to actively manage compliance and emissions throughout a voyage, ensuring we meet regulatory standards while optimizing fleet efficiency.” Proactive Strategy “Compliance shouldn’t be a burden—it should be a competitive advantage,” said Ali Riaz, CEO of OrbitMI. “By equipping Statu Shipping with real-time compliance intelligence, OrbitMI enables them to anticipate regulatory challenges, reduce emissions-related costs, and make proactive, data-driven decisions that improve operational performance.” Reliable Reporting To further enhance compliance automation, Orbit integrates with Bureau Veritas’ VeriSTAR Green platform. This integration streamlines the final auditing of emissions reports before submission to regulators, reducing administrative workload and ensuring accuracy. Automating this process not only saves time but also minimizes the risk of non-compliance, giving Statu Shipping confidence in the accuracy and reliability of their reporting. Driving Smarter Operations “Statu Shipping is a prime example of a forward-thinking operator that understands the value of using data not just for compliance, but for driving smarter operations,” added Riaz. “By embracing automation and predictive insights, they are setting a new standard for efficiency in emissions management.”

OrbitMI, a pioneer provider of maritime SaaS software, announces that it has been selected by Nisshin Shipping Co., Ltd. A global pioneer in bulk and chemical cargo transportation, to provide vessel reporting and compliance solutions across its fleet. Scaling smart shipping Nisshin Shipping initially engaged with OrbitMI through a pilot program on a newly built vesselNisshin Shipping initially engaged with OrbitMI through a pilot program on a newly built vessel, evaluating its effectiveness in optimizing fleet operations. Following the successful pilot, the deployment expanded to 14 vessels with future expansion to be considered. Streamlining fleet operations  Nisshin Shipping selected OrbitMI for its ability to integrate with existing workflows and provide real-time compliance insights.  “We sought a solution to enhance fleet management by optimizing reporting, emissions tracking, and compliance while reducing manual data entry,” says Tatsuomi Hori, Director and Executive Officer of Nisshin Shipping.  “OrbitMI delivers exactly that, ensuring efficiency, accuracy, and regulatory compliance” he added. Seamless voyage compliance Simplifies compliance by consolidating monitoring, tracking, and generating reports in one interfaceOrbitMI simplifies compliance by consolidating key regulatory data in one interface. Operators can monitor emissions, track voyage performance, and generate reports for CII. EU Allowances (EUAs) under the Emissions Trading System (ETS), and FuelEU costs. Real-time alerts on speed, ETA, and fuel consumption enable proactive decision-making. Reducing compliance burdens “Regulatory compliance is complex, but it shouldn’t be a burden,” says Ali Riaz, CEO of OrbitMI. “By eliminating system silos and centralizing emissions insights, OrbitMI enables Nisshin Shipping to reduce administrative overhead, cut emissions-related costs, and enhance overall operational efficiency. The result is not just compliance—but smarter, more profitable fleet operations.” Strategic partnership begins The agreement marks the beginning of a long-term cooperative relationship between the two companies. “From the start, our vision has been to empower industry pioneers with data-driven decision-making,” notes Riaz.  “Nisshin Shipping exemplifies this forward-thinking approach. Their commitment to sustainability and operational excellence makes them an ideal partner as we continue shaping the future of maritime intelligence together.”
