COMPAS vs Flightscape Crew Management

COMPAS is a maritime crew management system for ship managers and offshore oil, gas, and alternative energy operators. It supports HR, compliance, and administration for teams at sea and ashore. Personnel records can hold biodata, voyage history, certificates, medical records, and training records. Built-in business logic supports one-click checks against Flag, owner, or OEM requirements, while visual planning and dynamic reports help teams review compliance, crewing needs, and operational risk. COMPAS automates payroll calculations and integrates with financial systems. Travel tools support crew-change planning and booking, with quotations, automated approvals, cost comparisons, real-time price benchmarking, and an audit trail. Crew can use a mobile app to access contracts, schedules, expenses, and assignments. Other listed features include eAppraisals, contract and certification management, and work and rest hours management. OneOcean describes COMPAS as cloud-first, with secure backups and professionally managed global infrastructure. Its specialists provide migration, training, onboarding, consultancy, and ongoing support. The product page offers a demo and brochure but lists neither a price nor a free trial.
