Rickmers signs up for ShipServ's suite of e-procurement decision software

MAJOR marine and offshore e-marketplace provider ShipServ has sold its procurement software to Rickmers Shipmanagement, part of the Rickmers Group.

With offices in Hamburg and Singapore, Rickmers Shipmanagement is currently responsible for the technical management of about 100 vessels, including 52 of its own vessels and 12 Apollo and Rickmers Group JV vessels.



The Hamburg-based shipmanager chose ShipServ on the strength of its ability to increase transaction speeds and improve purchasing efficiency. Rickmers will connect to ShipServ via its DNV GL ship manager procurement software, the company said.



Bjoern Sprotte, global head of maritime services for Rickmers, said: "With the service that ShipServ provides we are able to improve purchasing efficiency and we look forward to a successful partnership."



ShipServ has a number of leading German shipmanagers and shipowners using its platform and services including ER Schiffahrt, F Laeisz, NSB, Reederei Claus-Peter Offen and Alpha Shipmanagement.
