04 / FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Your port community questions, answered.

Which Port Community System modules can marineM deliver?

marineM offers PCS modules for vessel registration; voyage and marine service requests; an agent portal; vessel schedules and berth information; permits, passes and port services; company registration and user access; community data exchange; notifications and document exchange; and public information displays. Select the modules around your community’s services and approval workflows.

How does an agent register a vessel and request marine services?

An agent submits vessel particulars and certificates for port verification, then creates a voyage against the registered vessel with its expected arrival and departure. The agent can request services such as pilotage, towage, mooring and launch assistance, and follow requests and confirmations throughout the visit.

How are approvals and documents handled?

Submissions can follow configurable approval routes to the responsible port team. Agents can provide visit documents and respond to information requests, while notifications keep relevant recipients informed of changes. Document versions, approval status and communication history help participants follow the same visit record.

Who can access information in the community portal?

Company registration and user management operate under port oversight. Role-based access controls which information users are authorised to see, while controlled document access and audit records support traceability. Define responsibilities and approval rights around each participating organisation’s role.

How is a Port Community System different from PMIS?

A Port Community System supports collaboration between organisations: submitting requests, exchanging documents and following shared information. marineM PMIS supports the port’s operational management of vessel visits, marine services and charges. The PCS modules described here focus on community workflows, rather than presenting internal dispatch or billing as PCS functions.

Can marineM PCS exchange information with other systems?

The Community Data Exchange module supports APIs and messaging for stakeholder information exchange. Interfaces need to be defined around agreed data formats, access permissions and workflows. The availability and requirements of each external system should be checked before confirming the integration scope.
