Vessels · engineering

Know which boat is due, and which one is off the water.

Every vessel has its own service plan, by engine hours or by date, whichever comes first. When a boat goes out for a survey or a repair, you book it out once and every screen knows.

  • Service due, worst first. Main engines, ramp winch, generator: hours are sent from the phone and the next service is worked out.
  • Stays overdue until the work is recorded. Passing the hours does not clear it; the engineer records the job.
  • Out of commission, booked once. The dates show on Today, on the calendar and on any sailing it affects, before customers are booked on it.
  • Surveys and certificates in date. MSAF survey, safety equipment and crew tickets flagged before they run out.

A sailing, start to finish

From the booking to the invoice.

Each step is recorded once, where it happens. The office, the customer and the crew all see the same thing.

Office
01 · BOOKING

The booking comes in.

By phone, email or at the yard. It goes on a sailing, with the space it needs by weight and deck area.

Office
02 · RECEIVING

Goods received at the yard, with a photo.

Matched to the booking and its supplier. The customer sees it arrived.

Yard and customer
03 · LOADING

Loaded by weight and deck space.

The deck plan shows what is on, what is waiting, and how much room is left. The skipper keeps the say on what is loaded.

Deckhand's phone
04 · PAPERS

The voyage papers come from the record.

From what actually went on deck: the voyage record, the cargo manifests and the dangerous goods list, prepared for MSAF submission.

Office
05 · LANDING

What came off, and what was short.

"All came off" in one tap. Anything short or damaged is noted on the jetty, with a photo.

Deckhand and customer
06 · INVOICE

Invoiced after a person approves.

At the contract rate, checked against the FCCC maximum. A named person approves it, and the invoice is created in Xero or MYOB.

Office
The paperwork

Printed from what went on deck.

No retyping the manifest at night. Every sheet comes from the same record as the booking and the loading.

Prepared for MSAF submission, in the FCCC schedule layouts. Your master and the MSAF officer still sign.

Invoicing

From the dock to Xero or MYOB.

The charge is worked out from the rate card and the contract. Nothing goes to your accounts until a named person approves it.

On the water

See where every barge is.

The office sees each vessel on the map, the stops already done and when it gets in. Each customer sees the same for the sailing carrying their cargo, on their own page.

For your customers

They can see where their pallet is.

Each customer gets their own page: what was received, the yard photo, which sailing it is on, and when it landed.

  • Received, loaded and landed, with photos
  • Their invoices in one place
  • New bookings sent from the same page
On the deck

Made for a phone in the sun.

Deckhands receive, load and land from their phone. Big buttons and few words, readable in bright sun.

  • Receive with a photo at the yard
  • Load against the deck plan
  • Land in one tap, short or damaged noted
Rawa · the assistant inside Kedge Voyager

Rawa prepares and explains. Your team decides.

Ask in plain words: how much room is left on Saturday, which pallets are still at the yard, what has landed but not been invoiced. Rawa answers from your own records and shows where the figure came from.

  • Answers from your own bookings and sailings
  • Shows the record behind every figure
  • Never loads, signs or invoices on its own

Questions operators ask

Barge and cargo software for Fiji and the South Pacific.

What is Kedge Voyager?

Software for barge, landing-craft and inter-island cargo operators in Fiji and the South Pacific. It keeps one record of each piece of cargo, from the booking to the yard, the deck, the jetty and the invoice, seen by the office, the customer and the deckhand.

Does it prepare the MSAF and FCCC paperwork?

Yes. The voyage record with the crew list, the cargo and vehicle manifests in the FCCC schedule layouts, and the dangerous goods list are prepared for MSAF submission from what actually went on deck. The master and the MSAF officer still sign.

Does it replace Xero or MYOB?

No. After a named person approves a charge, the invoice is created in the operator's own Xero or MYOB and signed for FRCS. Payments and accounts stay there.

Can our customers see where their cargo is?

Yes. Each customer has their own page showing what was received at the yard with a photo, which sailing it is on, where the vessel is on the map and when it arrives, when it landed, and their invoices.

Where can it be used?

Wherever barges, landing craft and small cargo ships carry freight between ports and islands. Fiji's MSAF and FCCC papers are built in; another country's papers are set up with the operator. Each vessel's position shows on a map in the office and on each customer's own page.

Kedge Voyager keeps the record. Your people load the barge, sign the papers and approve every charge.

Bring one sailing.

Twenty minutes: we walk one of your own sailings through it, from booking to invoice.
