/ OCIANA / Collaborative Optimisation Solution
OCIANA® Collaborative Optimisation Solution
By replacing phone, email, and paper coordination with confirmed berthing windows and staged pilot dispatch, OCIANA® Collaborative Optimisation Solution helps ports, carriers, and pilotage authorities act as one system, for smarter port call optimization and reliable Just-In-Time arrivals.
Streamline Maritime Operations
OCIANA® Collaborative Optimisation Solution gives ports, carriers, and pilotage authorities a port community system for scheduling, booking, and dispatch with staged, auditable handoffs at every step, replacing phone, email, and paper coordination.
Berth Scheduling
- Plan ahead, publish on your own timeline: Build your schedule in advance and share it with stakeholders when you're ready.
- Adapt as circumstances change: Make adjustments through an intuitive drag-and-drop interface, with instant alerts ensuring every stakeholder remains informed of disruptions as they occur.
Pilot Requests
- Coordinate pilot requests in one system: Manage pilot requests alongside booking requests and vessel clearance without switching platforms, so conflicts get caught early instead of at dispatch.
- Move from recommendation to formal order: Carriers can submit a Voyage Plan for an early recommendation, then progress through to a formal order once everything's confirmed.
Voyage Plans
- Request pilotage recommendations well in advance: Optimize for maximum draught or a no-stop transit, well ahead of your voyage.
- Get guidance built on real conditions: Pilots factor in constraints you might not see, such as tides, sea state, and speed restrictions, so Under Keel Clearance and arrival timing hold up before you're underway.
Change Requests
- Request pilotage recommendations well in advance: Optimize for maximum draught or a no-stop transit, well ahead of your voyage.
- Get guidance built on real conditions: Pilots factor in constraints you might not see, such as tides, sea state, and speed restrictions, so Under Keel Clearance and arrival timing hold up before you're underway.
Smart Alerts
- Catch issues before they become delays: Configurable warnings flag ETA deviations, missing vessels, unexpected destinations, and unscheduled arrivals early, with speed recommendations to help you correct course.
- Stay on top of every request: Alerts fire the moment a request is submitted or responded to, so nothing goes unnoticed.
Incoming Vessels & Harbour Monitoring
- Track every vessel headed your way: Unscheduled arrivals surface through AIS self-reporting, managed services, and pattern-of-life analysis — whether or not they're on the published schedule — with alerts flagging any mismatch against the schedule right on the Incoming Vessels screen.
- See everything in the harbour at a glance: Harbour Monitoring shows what's currently anchored, berthed, or transiting, and whether it's destined for your port or passing through.
Relevant UN SDGs
