Complete visibility across every vessel and warehouse.
Fleet-wide spare parts and consumables management with real-time stock across your vessels and shore warehouses. Automated minimum-level requisitions, cross-fleet interchangeability checks, and hazardous materials tracking mean a critical repair never waits on a paperwork search.
A vessel storekeeper is a purchaser, an auditor, and a translator all at once.
Standard ERP inventory assumes fixed locations, predictable demand, and one-language SKU records. Marine inventory is the opposite: locations move with the ship, demand spikes with breakdowns, and the record must be legible to a Filipino storekeeper, a Ukrainian second engineer, and a German superintendent. VOLAX Inventory is engineered for exactly that reality.
Every stock movement, every vessel, one dataset
ItemMaster with equipment cross-references
Every stocked item links back to the equipment it fits, the function it serves, and the OEM part number. A storekeeper looks up a valve by function; a second engineer looks it up by machinery item; the record is the same.
Location structure across ship and shore
Ship store, engine store, deck locker, bond locker, provisions freezer, dry store, shore warehouse, port hub. Multi-level location tree per vessel with granular movement logging.
Min/max levels with auto-requisition
Set minimums per item per location; VOLAX Inventory raises the requisition to VOLAX Procure the moment stock falls below. No manual reorder cycles, no forgotten spares.
QR & barcode mobile scanning
Every stock movement captured by scan on a rugged handheld or standard tablet. Receiving, issue, return, transfer, and stock take — all barcode-first, keyboard-optional.
Consumption tied to PMS job reporting
When a second engineer closes a maintenance job in VOLAX PMS, the spares consumed are drawn from the store automatically. Two systems, one record; no re-key, no reconciliation.
Vessel-to-vessel transfer with provenance
A sister ship in the same port with the right spare? Transfer with full documentation, cost allocation to the receiving vessel, and provenance tracked through class survey.
IHM & Hong Kong Convention
Hazardous materials inventory maintained continuously. IHM Part I / II / III recognised. EU Ship Recycling Regulation compliant. Certificate of Fitness renewals surfaced ahead of expiry.
Demand forecasting
Historical consumption per item, per vessel, per operating profile. Feed into VOLAX Procure for informed reorder timing. Slow-mover reports for capital release.
Fleet-wide interchangeability checks
Same spare, different vessel? VOLAX Inventory shows every location holding the interchangeable part across your fleet — before you raise a new PO.
Native integration with VOLAX Procure
Requisition, RFQ, PO, receipt, and stock movement flow through a single dataset. When purchase closes, stock updates the same transaction. Every spare, one truth.
