From data chaos to clarity: centralized, real-time offshore Project Tracking

Manage complex offshore projects with clarity and confidence using real-time updates, transparent overviews and accurate tracking.

As part of Smart Fleet Management (SFM), Spinergie's Project Tracking module is designed to help developers, operators and contractors better understand offshore project progress, take swift action to alleviate delays, and devise strategies around lessons from previous projects.

Spinergie’s Project Tracking module….

  • Provides a centralized location for all your ongoing and completed project tracking data. 
  • Leverages data entered or captured through crew reporting within the SFM solution. 
  • Shows real-time progress on projects so you can take action when needed. 
  • Helps you understand the impact of weather and soil type on project progress and anticipate how similar projects could be affected by similar conditions. 
  • Estimates the time needed for each activity to aid in the accurate planning of installation scenarios. 
  • Helps you ensure that installation vessels are used at maximum efficiency to balance high dayrates. 
  • Makes it quick and easy to share accurate updates with stakeholders at any time. 

Product Features

Project Tracking centralizes your reporting and analytics into a single source of truth. The first page—Project Tracking Overview—provides an accessible “at a glance” view of your current projects and KPIs. Each project page has three distinct layers: Current Status, Fleet Analysis and Performance Analysis

Current Status 

Quickly gauge project progress and make adjustments as needed, ensuring milestones are met as planned.

  • Granular tracking of packages and workpackages.
  • A visual, interactive map showing milestone progression pie charts. 
  • A detailed S-Curve chart compared project outcomes with initial plans, to help in fine-tuning strategies and uncover areas of competitive advantage.

The customizable ‘Current Status’ tab shows at-a-glance ongoing project data. Here you can access quick metrics and KPIs to ensure each aspect is on track. The ‘S-Curve’ chart shows ongoing progress alongside planned scenarios to assess how closely your project adheres to the planned timeframe. 

Fleet Analysis

A breakdown of your fleet and vessel activities.

  • Headlines of the fleet-specific KPIs chosen by you to reflect your unique operations. 
  • A comprehensive schedule of fleet activity including workpackages and downtime alongside contextual weather details. 
  • Detailed charts showing what activities took the most hours over specific timescales and a vessel-by-vessel analysis. 

Performance Analysis

Live performance analysis helps you understand the drivers behind non-productive time so you can take immediate action to address delays.

  • Create a performance baseline to measure ongoing operations, unlock improvement insights and inform future planning. 
  • Understand what activities are taking the most amount of time at each POI and adjust future operations accordingly. 
  • A soil overview which contextualizes how the sediment type on location impacts the installation of your foundations, cables and turbines. 

Performance Analysis across each POI provides baselines to help you identify inefficiencies, reduce non-productive time, and adapt operations based on your findings.

The benefits of Project Tracking

As a single source of truth, SFM aligns multiple teams with the insights and information needed to make informed decisions. It consolidates data via DPRs, onboard equipment and AIS data,  then intelligently processes it into dashboards customized to fit your operations. 

The Project Tracking module offers a more efficient and accurate method to track progress compared to traditional, complex spreadsheets used to “crunch” data from DPRs and various other sources. Why spend hours sifting through spreadsheets (that are prone to errors) when you can access what you need within a couple of quick clicks?

In line with other SFM modules, Project Tracking is adaptable and designed to grow with your operations and the industry at large. As offshore wind projects become more complex, it also becomes harder to efficiently monitor the status of different packages and workphases. It is almost impossible to gain any sort of real-time visibility using traditional reporting. This means it’s all-too-easy for delays to creep in and accumulate before it’s too late for prompt action. 

There are benefits to Project Tracking beyond projects-in-progress. Within the same module, your teams can compare your project data with external factors like weather conditions and seabed characteristics. This opens up a new world of insights, helping you learn from existing projects to anticipate future needs without any manual, disjoined processes. 

This circle of continuous improvement is key to Spinergie’s SFM philosophy and is what helps our clients gain greater efficiency with each project. 

Spinergie's Project Tracking module will help you manage complex projects with clarity and confidence. By delivering real-time updates and a transparent overview of progress across all project phases, it enables proactive decision-making, saves valuable time, and fosters seamless collaboration between teams. 

With streamlined access to key information, you and your team can be completely aligned, control costs effectively, and keep all stakeholders informed every step of the way.
