C Data has announced the latest release of its powerful safety, maintenance and refit tasking solution BSmart.
Originally developed by seagoing officers and marine superintendents, C Data’s flagship application is now enhanced with an integrated mobile app to strengthen ship-to-shore connectivity.
BSmart is designed to simplify and centralise maintenance planning, safety management, and refit coordination across vessels. The addition of a mobile application further enhances usability, enabling real-time updates, improved communication, and seamless synchronisation between onboard crews and shore-based teams, even in low-connectivity environments.
BSmart’s cloud-based architecture allows users to plan, assign, and track maintenance tasks with full visibility and accountability. Key features include structured task scheduling, comprehensive audit trails, automated reminders, and integrated reporting tools that support compliance and operational efficiency. Its offline capability ensures uninterrupted access to critical data, with automatic synchronisation once connectivity is restored.
