Marcura Husbandry gives ship managers control over cost, scope, and accountability for husbandry port calls—even when the agent is outside their control.

Why the market is looking for a better way

Non-commercial port calls are complex, multi-party, and financially opaque. Reactive workflows leave teams without the structure, benchmarks, or visibility they need.

01

Challenge

Duplicate agent fees

Non-commercial port calls are complex, multi-party, and financially opaque.

02

Pain point

Reactive workflows create inconsistent quotes, unclear scope, limited benchmarking, and low transparency.

03

Customer need

Teams need vessel-led planning, structured procurement, variance control, and defensible reporting.

Solution overview

A husbandry cost control platform that helps ship managers scope services, compare agent quotes, manage execution, and benchmark performance across ports and regions. Marcura Husbandry starts at vessel planning, not invoice reconciliation.

Run husbandry end to end under one platform

Plan the scope, estimate the cost, request comparable quotes, and report back with evidence.

Plan the call before procurement

Capture vessel context, candidate ports, and required services in one structured planning record so procurement starts from a clean baseline.

Estimate cost before requesting quotes

Compare candidate ports, build line-item estimates, and ground budgets in historical ranges and contract context before procurement begins.

Screen & appoint

Screen PDAs, highlight exclusions, and appoint the best-fit agent based on cost, scope, and history.

Execute

Execute in one workspace with negotiation visibility and PDA-to-FDA variance tracking.

Benchmark

Convert every call into benchmarks for ports, agents, peer costs, and savings trends.
