Helm Dispatch Manager™

Dispatching a fleet is like a continuous mental chess game. You need to move your pieces efficiently while accounting for an ever-changing game board like tides, currents, changing customer orders, dock availability, crew changes, and mechanical failures, among others. Add to that the need to stay on top of timely and accurate billing records, which can include vessel logs, load quantities and demurrage times, and what you get is a challenging job that demands your full attention. To excel you need to be able to focus on each task at hand as well as a system that can keep up with you, and your dynamic environment.


Helm Dispatch Manager™ was designed to give you peace of mind by handling the variables of dispatching and invoicing for you. Helm puts every vessel job into a single centralized database, and streamlines everyday functions like billing, vessel scheduling and vessel logs, which can greatly increase your efficiency and decrease your resource needs. Helm also integrates with other accounting systems and software, so you’ll never have to manually copy and paste information from one system to another again. With Helm you’ll reduce errors and capture every billing opportunity, providing your workboat company with a greater financial return and increased customer confidence. Helm Dispatch Manager™ is built withthe Helm source code, which allows rapid customization, usually right in the user interface. So no matter what your unique dispatching and billing needs are, Helm can adapt to you. Quite simply, it’s the game changer you’ve been looking for.
