Mariners generally dislike software, because they are busy with matters other than learning on board software programs. However, if software is able to solve high priority problems for the user, if there are immediate benefits, and if it is so easy to use that there is no need for training, then computerisation is well worth the effort. Task Assistant meets these criteria.
Additionally, Task Assistant can provide your organisation with the following benefits:
Improved Co-ordination
A company with good co-ordination is one where people benefit from each others work. Co-ordination saves you from doing work that others in the company have done -- work which is required for you to do your job better.
Increased Corporate Memory
Increased corporate memory means that you are using your company's collective knowledge at the time that it is needed. This will only happen if people are able to easily file information, and then access it at the point of need.
Continuous Training
To achieve efficient training without taking time from the job requires the use of both top ship management talent and the latest facilities from the highly dynamic world of information technology. A good enterprise system enables information relevant to training and orientation to be delivered to staff members instantly and effortlessly at the time that they need this information.
