In the world of Maritime operations, efficiency is a necessity. At Veridian, we’re at the forefront of this shift with AMOS™-X, the next generation of AMOS™.
AMOS™-X focuses on its users, both those off-shore and on-shore more than ever before. It improves the way they’re able to work to support maximum productivity, collectively supporting optimal, efficient and compliant fleet operations.
Simplicity, Speed and Seamless Access
We designed AMOS™-X with a singular purpose: to empower our users with a more focused and effective tool. While it might appear to be just a modernization of our tech stack, the real magic lies in its simplicity and efficiency.
Unlike traditional software, AMOS™-X doesn’t demand a hefty upgrade process; it’s designed for quick, easy deployment, ensuring you can hit the ground running without a hitch.
From a usability standpoint, AMOS™-X truly shines. It operates as a proactive push system, intelligently notifying you about tasks that require your attention. AMOS™-X is entirely web-based and mobile-friendly. This means you can manage critical operations from any device, whether you’re in the office, on a ship, or even at a shipyard. Allowing seamless, efficient work from anywhere at any time.
This extends to its built-in notification system, which is particularly important for purchasing teams. You’ll receive direct action links via email, streamlining workflows and significantly reducing response times.
Onboard, our vision is clear: to eliminate paperwork entirely. Department heads can digitally assign tasks, minimizing the need for printed work orders and adopting a more agile, paperless environment.
Powerful Functionality Today, More on the Horizon
As of mid-2025, AMOS™-X already boasts a robust set of capabilities, covering maintenance planning and execution, inventory control, purchasing, receiving, and comprehensive reporting, to name a few.
Our ambition is clear: by the end of the year, AMOS™-X will fully replace the traditional onboard AMOS™ Business Suite, signalling a complete transition to this modern platform.
But the innovation doesn’t stop there. We are committed to continuously enhancing AMOS™-X for shore-side operations. Building on existing approval workflows. 2026 will see significant improvements to purchasing tools for office-based users, with features like quotation comparison and contracting taking center stage.
A game-changer already in play is the Data Loader Tool. This tool prevents data duplication and ensures consistency by checking for conflicts before loading, guaranteeing clean, reliable data across your entire AMOS™ system. Looking ahead, this tool has huge potential to evolve into a fully embedded data management solution in 2026, further simplifying complex administrative tasks for your teams.
Customer-Driven Innovation: Learning from the Front Lines
What truly sets AMOS™-X apart is our customer-centric development approach. Extensive ship visits this year from our team are a testament to this commitment. By visiting ships and talking directly to end users, engineers, and storekeepers, we ensure we’re building exactly what users need. It also helps bridge the gap between our development efforts and your real-world use.
Personally, expeditions to vessels like the Oasis of the Seas, Wonder of the Seas, Adventure of the Seas, and Utopia have provided invaluable insights, giving our development team a genuine understanding of how our products perform in real-world scenarios. The Utopia visit offered a profound sense of practical application that truly excited the team.
The Vision for Usability and Strategic Alignment
In my role, I’m driven by a clear vision. Having worked with AMOS™ across container ships and cruise lines for almost two decades, my focus is firmly on driving product usability, engaging customers, and aligning with your strategic goals. We are dedicated to ensuring AMOS™-X evolves in ways that directly benefit our users, maximizing the value you obtain from the platform.
The Key to Success: Review Your Processes
For customers considering AMOS™-X, I offer a crucial piece of advice: Review your processes. I’ve seen many organizations that, over decades, have layered new workflows on top of old ones, creating unnecessary complexity. While AMOS™-X offers a seamless, plug-and-play experience, optimizing your internal processes is key to unlocking its full potential and realizing maximum value.
In essence, AMOS™-X represents a significant leap forward in maritime fleet management. By prioritizing simplification, usability, and direct customer engagement, we at Veridian are not just offering a new product; we’re offering a new, more efficient way of working, powered by an understanding that comes from truly being in the industry.
