Voyage Estimator
The IMOS Voyage Estimator is the most sophisticated voyage simulation tool on the market—and a true decision-making tool. Renowned for its easy-to- use, superior analytical capabilities and graphical views, it automatically estimates revenues, expenses, daily profit/loss, freight rate/TCE, and other calculations. Two views—Column and Details—let you get the level of information you want. Using the unique Column view —the most popular feature of IMOS—it’s simple to create multiple “what if” scenarios for easy side-by-side comparison. Combine estimates to create one voyage and hide estimates when viewing. Perform deviation and sensitivity analysis and get new insights that help you make better decisions.
Cargo Schedule
The Cargo Schedule that displays open cargoes in chronological order by loading port, indicating quantity and a color coded for status. Displayed cargoes include cargoes or commitments stemming from an agreement, such as a COA. Users can access cargo details with a simple click on the graph. And they can assign a vessel to make a Voyage Estimate or produce a Fixture Note.
Fixture Note
The Fixture Note is the central document that stores all voyage-related data and serves as a single source for this information. A Fixture Note is created automatically from the Voyage Estimate or the Cargo Schedule modules. The details they provide are supplemented by other information, such as charter party forms, cargo and demurrage terms, port agent nominations, notice to be given, cargo loading/discharge terms, accounting terms, and extra freight terms.
Contract of Affreightment (COA)
Get complete COA management—including managing the pricing, terms, and exposure of your COAs—all in an integrated system. IMOS handles both vessel and cargo COAs, serving as a complete, effective contract management solution. Create cargoes from contracts quickly and easily. Link to pricing tables for freights and surcharges.
