Introduction
No matter how buoyant the shipping market, shipping companies are always looking for ways to reduce
costs, increase operational efficiencies and maximise charter income.
With market conditions increasingly becoming unpre-
dictable, now is the time to get costs under control
and better manage spending. But until recently, the
purchasing department has played a relatively peri-
pheral role in these important initiatives. Today, there’s
a new way to do business that brings purchasing to
its rightful place at the strategist’s table, while drama-
tically improving purchasing speed, efficiency and vi-
sibility.
From sourcing new suppliers, to reducing the cost of
managing quotes and orders, to reducing maverick
spend, SpecTec and ShipServ can help you drive out
costs and increase your business agility.
