1. THE POWER OF PURE EXPERTISE
AXSYS TECHNOLOGIES LTD
Structural Maintenance

2. The idea of developing an integrated Fleet Management solution has been inspired during the long association of Axsys with classification society and offshore owners /operators.
Participation of Axsys in their projects helped to understand the various requirements of maintenance and management activities of a fleet. Specification of the product has been conceived in line of those requirements and the WIDE OCEAN suite is developed as an ultimate Fleet Management solution comprising maintenance and management solution for Structure, Machinery and Crew etc.
