Abstract: This paper briefly introduces the overall operational environment, technical system, constitution and running of the Management Information System for the Shipping Machinery Equipment associated with the Guangzhou Dredging Company. It focuses on the coding principles for the dredging spare parts and facilities, all life-span management requirements for the important spare parts and the remote data interchange between the ships and offices onshore. The application of the key performance indicators both for the dredging equipment and the enterprise management will also be looked at. How the sharing of this information is achieved, online processing of affairs and the computerizing of the integrated statistic analysis that ultimately establishes the advanced information management system for the dredging spare parts is also discussed in this paper.
Keywords: dredging equipment management, key performance indicators, all life-span management, coding principles for spare parts, remote dynamic data interchange
