Supplying
vessels is rarely straightforward
Parts, consumables, and equipment must move through approvals, suppliers, logistics, and invoicing while vessels continue operating across global ports and time zones.
Delays create pressure quickly, and fragmented systems often make routine procurement harder than it needs to be.
Shipnet Procurement connects the full procure-to-pay process within one operational environment - helping procurement, technical, and finance teams manage purchasing with less friction and greater visibility across the fleet.

Procurement that Supports Operations
Procurement in shipping is not just about purchasing.
Maintenance schedules, vessel readiness and operational reliability all depend on the right parts reaching the right vessel at the right time. systems rely on disconnected workflows, spreadsheets and manual coordination between ship and shore, even simple tasks can become unnecessarily difficult.
Part of the Shipnet Solution Platform, Shipnet Procurement was designed around the reality of maritime operations: multiple stakeholders, moving vessels, changing priorities and constant operational pressure.
The goal is not simply more process. It is fewer operational obstacles.
Visibility Across the Supply Chain
Visibility
Across the Supply Chain
Procurement data becomes significantly more valuable when connected across the wider operational environment.
Shipnet gives organisations visibility into purchasing activity, supplier performance, operational consumption and recurring workflow bottlenecks across vessels and fleets.
The point isn't
collecting more data
... it's reducing avoidable operational drag across the supply chain.
That visibility needs to go further - spotting a supplier worth consolidating around, or a recurring shortage before it becomes a pattern - that's where Shipnet Analytics and Helix come in, turning procurement activity into fleet-wide trends rather than isolated orders.
Connected From Requisition to Delivery
Shipnet connects procurement directly with vessel operations, allowing requisitions to be created from maintenance activity, stock requirements and onboard needs.
Procurement teams can manage the process from initial request through purchasing, logistics, delivery and invoice handling within the same connected environment, reducing duplicated work and improving visibility across ship and shore teams.
Simplifying Supplier and RFQ Workflows
Managing quotations across suppliers is often one of the most time-consuming parts of maritime procurement.
Through SNAPS Web, suppliers can submit quotations electronically, allowing procurement teams to compare pricing, evaluate options and manage approvals without relying on fragmented email chains or manual spreadsheets.
The result is a process that feels more controlled, repeatable and easier to manage under pressure.
Approval Workflows Without Added Complexity
Purchasing decisions often involve multiple departments, approval levels and financial controls.
Shipnet supports configurable approval workflows and four-eye approval processes while keeping financial visibility accessible throughout procurement activity. Teams can manage purchasing decisions within company policy without adding unnecessary administrative burden to everyday operations.
Logistics and Delivery Visibility
Once orders are placed, coordination becomes critical.
Shipnet supports shipment tracking, transport coordination and delivery visibility across global ports, helping procurement and logistics teams manage vessel deliveries with greater confidence and fewer communication gaps.
Procurement and Finance Connected
Invoice matching and reconciliation can create significant manual workload when procurement and finance systems operate separately.
Shipnet connects procurement directly with financial accounting and operational activity, allowing supplier invoices, purchase orders and deliveries to remain aligned throughout the process.
Combined with Shipnet Invoice Capture, this helps reduce manual processing effort while improving financial oversight across fleet operations.
