Smart Ship Hub (SSH) has recently received a significant strategic investment from Nakakita Seisakusho, a leading maritime equipment manufacturer in Japan known for its innovative butterfly valves and fluid control systems. The partnership with Nakakita Seisakusho is seen as a positive development for the Japanese maritime ecosystem, as Smart Ship Hub has already made considerable investments in the Japanese market and has been influenced by Japanese processes and quality frameworks.
Joy Basu, CEO of Smart Ship Hub, emphasized the company’s global presence, technology competences, top-tier client base, and robust digital platform as key factors that appealed to Nakakita Seisakusho. Teruhis Miyata, President of Nakakita Seisakusho, highlighted the companies’ combined skills and commitment to customer-first, value-based outcomes in facilitating a seamless digital transformation process for maritime companies. This collaboration aims to bring in efficient workflows, set new standards in fleet management, and drive bottom-line savings for Japanese maritime companies through SSH’s comprehensive digital platform experience.
Maritime companies worldwide are increasingly shifting from traditional legacy processes to technology-enhanced experiences. SSH’s IoT gateway can extract data from various machinery and equipment on vessels, generating high-quality data that supports AI-driven ship management practices. The integration of sensor data, vessel manuals, maintenance updates, and legacy process data forms the basis for data-driven intelligence in efficient fleet management. With the emphasis on technology-managed processes and remote fleet management, Japanese maritime companies stand to benefit from SSH’s ‘All in One’ platform experience, enhancing efficiencies and cost savings in their operations.
