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.
