Fleet Management Solutions
NS 5 is an integrated information network that addresses every element of a fleet manager's day to day business functions, and the only software product for the Maritime Industry on the market that is supported by a Class Society. In fact, NS 5 was developed by ABS Nautical Systems, a subsidiary of the American Bureau of Shipping.
NS 5 is a relational database currently with a standard package built on a MySQL ® platform. MySQL ® is an open source Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) that uses Structured Query Language (SQL), the most popular language for adding, accessing, and processing data in a database. The software is currently packaged with a MySQL ® platform, but will also be available on other standard RDBM systems. Please contact ABS NS for more details on other supported database platforms.
A complete suite of NS 5 modules handles every aspect of operational management - from regulatory requirements, to payroll, to planned maintenance programs. Fully integrated, the modules eliminate the need for repetitive data entry, sharing information and allowing you to move rapidly from one to the other. NS 5 makes fleet management easier and more efficient, providing increased productivity and more effective cost control flow from NS 5’s ability to link management, operations, and onboard personnel into a seamless information stream.
The integrated architecture makes adding modules simple. Each module is valuable on its own but a complete NS 5 system provides the most powerful, single-source fleet management tool available. NS 5 is an easy-to-use Windows-based program with full replication capability.
