Be ready for docking!
Your ship must go into dock – think about your cranes as well. With a pre-docking inspection, you are ready for a fast and effective dry-docking.
With a predictive inspection, you only order parts that are required and avoid unplanned delays while your upcoming dry-docking.

Step 3: Planning and budgeting
We support you in the best possible time and resource management.
Knowing the condition of the crane helps you to avoid unforeseen findings during your dry-docking. A pre-docking inspection gives you the opportunity to avoid unexpected expenses and carefully plan and budget for the eventual work that needs to be done.
Step 4: Condition-based parts delivery and service
Our global network ensures that all required parts will be available during your dry-docking.
You can decide whether you want them to be delivered to a suitable address before dry-docking or directly to the shipyard.
