Marine and offshore vessel management and support services provider, V.Group, launched its Fleet Cell of the Future, a prototype for the future of technical management and marine support services.
This new design of operation redesigns the traditional Fleet Cell model, the building block of technical management at V.Group. With market-leading performance design and an open-plan layout, it enables a shift away from single user focus to full team problem-solving.

The Fleet Cell of the Future is used as a test bed for innovations, where the technical management team can measure operational, financial, and customer KPIs for the Fleet Cell and measure the effectiveness of new approaches and technology.
Every aspect of the project has been designed to ensure quicker communication and recall of data between the Fleet Cell and crew, as well as within the Fleet Cell itself.
Jon Key, director of strategy, innovation and transformation at V.Group, mentioned.
We’re looking at how people talk to each other, work together, and solve problems for our customers as a team. Little things, like stand-up meetings every day and giving everyone in the cell the permission – and responsibility – to solve problems, can have far more impact than a new piece of tech … This strategy also means that we maximise the value of any new technology we adopt – we don’t adopt new tech for its own sake, but only once it’s proven that it’s effective.
