Lindblad Expeditions implements best-in-class solutions for inspections and dry-docking projects

Lindblad Expeditions, a leader in expedition cruising, has selected both UniSea Maindeck and UniSea Inspections to strengthen their technical project management and ship inspection processes.

Lindblad Expeditions is known for its highly specialized fleet designed for remote and environmentally sensitive destinations. Keeping strict schedules while operating in harsh and demanding conditions requires their team to maintain the highest level of attention to their ships' maintenance and care. Supporting them in this critical part of their operations requires precision, and only best-in-class software solutions will do the job.


Purpose-Built for the Industry’s Challenges

‍Steven McCracken, Director of Technical Operations at Lindblad Expeditions, shared his excitement: “UniSea’s solutions for ship inspections and dry-docking projects have clearly been developed to solve the complex challenges faced by our industry. You see this in their powerful mobile apps - which are a game-changer for us."

‍UniSea Maindeck is a project management solution designed to help technical ship managers efficiently plan and execute dry-docking projects. The platform’s comprehensive feature set, including advanced mobile capabilities and versatile reporting tools allow teams to stay connected and make accurate, data-driven decisions throughout the project.

UniSea Inspections is a powerful application designed to help maritime professionals conduct ship inspections using only their mobile devices. The module supports any type of inspection, allowing users to create fully customized inspection templates tailored to their needs. The mobile app offers full offline functionality, voice-to-text support for hands-free commenting, and image annotation for added convenience.

By implementing UniSea Inspections, companies eliminate the need for manual post-inspection reporting. All images and comments are automatically synced from the device to the Inspections module, ensuring immediate availability for all stakeholders.
