Polaris 


   


Polaris is a lightweight, easy to use purchasing system designed by MarineProvider that helps you gain full control of your purchases. Requisitions are raised onboard using MarineProvider's own requisitioning system, and are then automatically fed back into the Polaris purchasing system. Seamless integration is established from Vessel through to Supplier.

Polaris users gain compelling business advantages, such as significantly decreased transaction processing costs, shorter transaction cycles, and elimination of manual data re-entry. The MarineProvider technological platform also opens to further integration opportunities between the various market players in the marine industry.

Through the use of internet technology, MarineProvider streamlines communication between buyers and suppliers, and defines a common integration platform for both. The supplier receives Requests For Quotes and Purchase Orders through the MarineProvider Integration Solution in the same format every time. Supplier's quotes and order confirmations are fed directly back into Polaris, thereby excluding errors of manual data re-entry. The enhanced level of automation gained by combining Polaris with MarineProvider's Solution, makes it inexpensive, flexible, scalable, quick and easy-to-use.
