Marine and port operations run 24/7 and involve countless activities—from managing vessel arrivals and fuel usage to handling cargo performance and monitoring port charges. When these critical metrics stay scattered across spreadsheets, logs, and manual documentation, teams lose time and visibility. Decision-making slows, operational risks increase, and leaders struggle to understand real-time performance. To solve these challenges, we created the Marine & Ports Dashboard in Power BI — a powerful, interactive, and ready-to-use reporting solution designed for port authorities, marine logistics teams, and cargo managers.
This dashboard centralizes every marine KPI into one visual platform. You can monitor total cost, revenue, fuel consumption, vessel performance, department-wise results, port charges, satisfaction scores, and monthly trends instantly. Since it runs on Power BI, you get automated refreshes, drill-through capabilities, dynamic slicers, and stunning visuals—allowing technical and non-technical users to analyze marine operations with ease.
