Basira Marine · Ship management

From OEM manual to SAP, and every ship operation in between.

Basira Marine builds, validates and loads the equipment hierarchy, planned maintenance and spares data for every vessel, using AI to read OEM manuals, drawings and catalogues. Then it runs the fleet on the same platform: maintenance, dry docking, procurement, HSEQ, crewing, certificates and emissions, integrated with SAP and AMOS.

  • AI extraction from OEM manuals
  • SAP MM/PM and AMOS-ready data
  • Offline onboard verification

  • From OEM manuals to SAP

    Equipment, PMS jobs and spares are extracted from manuals and drawings, validated and loaded to SAP or AMOS.

  • Sister vessels, not starting over

    Data accepted for one vessel can be inherited by its sisters and flagged for verification.

  • Owner review built in

    Datasets move through review and acceptance with the owner, batch by batch.

Why it matters

A maintenance system is only as good as its data

Fleet data is still keyed in by hand from manuals and spreadsheets, vessel by vessel, and every ship ends up different.

Months of manual data entry

Equipment, jobs and spares are typed from manuals, and onboarding a fleet takes years.

Duplicate and missing parts

The same part appears under different numbers across ships, while critical spares are missing.

Operations on separate tools

Dry docking, procurement, crewing and emissions each live in their own spreadsheet or system.

What Basira Marine does

Fleet data and ship operations on one platform

Asset hierarchy builder

AI extracts equipment from manuals, drawings and OEM catalogues into an SFI-coded tree, with a register of what is missing.

Planned maintenance data

Jobs, intervals, continuous survey items, certificates and alarms, checked by a rule engine before load.

Spares and BOM

OEM part numbers with IMPA and drawing references, multi-level BOMs and legacy BOM clean-up.

Material master

Descriptions, units, storage and criticality on SAP MM and AMOS templates, with fleet-wide duplicate detection.

Inventory strategy

Critical, essential and fast-moving classes with min–max stock per vessel class and an audit trail.

Onboard verification

Counts, bins and locations with photos on a mobile app that works offline, plus durable labels.

Review and acceptance

Reviewers comment and reject per dataset, and each vessel gets an acceptance certificate.

Ship operations

Dry docking, procurement to SAP, HSEQ, crewing with rest hours and STCW, insurance and class certificates.

Emissions and Ask Basira

CII, EU ETS and IMO DCS tracking, and an AI copilot over manuals, jobs, parts and history.

How it works

From documents to a fleet running on clean data

  1. 01

    Extract

    Upload manuals, drawings and catalogues; AI builds the equipment tree, jobs and spares.

  2. 02

    Validate

    Rules and reviewers check every field, and duplicates are merged across the fleet.

  3. 03

    Verify onboard

    Crews confirm counts and locations offline, and labels are printed for each item.

  4. 04

    Load and run

    Data loads into SAP and AMOS, and the fleet runs maintenance and operations on the platform.

Who it’s for

Built for fleets that run on maintenance

Ship owners and managers

Fleets of tankers, carriers and offshore vessels that need consistent data and planned maintenance.

Energy and logistics shipping

Operators moving energy and cargo that must meet strict HSEQ and emissions rules.

Technical and supply teams

Superintendents, planners and buyers who depend on correct equipment and spares data.

FAQ

Ship management questions, answered

What is Basira Marine?

Basira Marine is a ship management and fleet data platform. It uses AI to build equipment, maintenance and spares data from OEM documents, prepares it for SAP and AMOS, and runs maintenance, dry docking, procurement, HSEQ, crewing, certificates and emissions in one place.

Does it replace our maintenance system?

It can, or it can feed it. Basira Marine produces load-ready data for SAP MM/PM and AMOS and integrates with them, or runs planned maintenance itself.

How does the AI extraction work?

AI reads manuals, drawings and OEM catalogues and proposes equipment, jobs and spares in an SFI-coded hierarchy. Rules and reviewers check every record before it is accepted.

Can crews use it at sea without connectivity?

Yes. The onboard app records counts, bins, locations and photos offline and syncs when the ship is connected.

Which emissions rules does it track?

CII, EU ETS and IMO DCS, with dashboards for each vessel and the fleet.

Is it related to Basira for process safety?

It shares the Basira family name and design approach. Basira covers barrier management and root cause analysis for energy operations; Basira Marine covers ship management and fleet data.

How is Basira Marine licensed?

As an annual on-premise licence installed on your servers, private cloud or an isolated network, or as a monthly or annual cloud subscription that we host in a UAE data center or a cloud region in your country. Both include updates and support.
