OrbitMI has introduced a structured assessment that shows shipowners how well their vessel reports match recognised industry standards. The launch arrives at a time when the industry depends more heavily on accurate and consistent data. Executives say the goal is to strengthen trust across digital workflows.
OrbitMI has launched a Vessel Reporting Analysis designed to give shipowners a clear view of how their reporting practices measure up against industry expectations. Announced in New York on 25 November 2025, the new assessment responds to a growing need for dependable data as the maritime sector moves deeper into digital operations.
The company says the assessment examines noon reports, voyage records, fuel entries and key operational fields to identify inconsistencies that influence compliance processes and business decisions. It also compares existing practices with the OVD standard and provides practical steps to raise the quality and consistency of daily reporting.
Alexandre Lapointe, Chief Product Officer at OrbitMI, said the industry is entering what the company describes as the Connected Maritime Era, in which ship and shore depend on shared information to make timely decisions. “Standards matter more than ever. The maritime industry is entering what we call the Connected Maritime Era, where ship and shore think together through shared data and intelligent, connected workflows. In this environment, vessel reports are more than a daily requirement. They connect onboard systems, cloud platforms, partners, and the decisions that operators must make in real time. High quality data builds trust across the voyage lifecycle, and addressing even small gaps can reduce friction and lead to better decisions. This assessment helps operators understand exactly where improvements will deliver value.”
OrbitMI notes that even minor discrepancies in daily reports can slow compliance checks and lead to additional manual work. The company positions the Vessel Reporting Analysis as a straightforward way for operators to strengthen reporting discipline at a time when digital tools are becoming central to fleet management.
OrbitMI is also inviting the industry to a deeper discussion during Digital Ship’s first live webinar on 3 December 2025, where leaders from Stena Bulk and OrbitMI will share how they’re navigating the next generation of AI-driven shipping. The session underscores a shared commitment to improving data quality and driving more standardised digital practices across the global fleet.
