Origin and history

How MESPAS got here.

  1. 2004

    MESPAS was founded in 2004 by two maritime engineers to combine maintenance software with procurement software and bring buyers and vendors together. Technical maintenance remains its core. It passed 500 installations in 2010 and 1,000 Technical Ship Management installations in 2014, when it also opened a Polish ICT subsidiary.

  2. 2015

    Later milestones include web dashboards (2015), Supplier Business Management (2016), the MESPAS Connect e-trading platform and a Singapore office (2018), integrations with MAN Energy Solutions (2019) and Wärtsilä (2021), and a mobile app for maintenance and QHSE (2022).

  3. 2023

    In 2023 MESPAS opened a subsidiary in Piraeus and gained ISO 27001 certification, and in 2024 it joined the Swiss Maritime Group.

FAQ

Questions about MESPAS work.

Are you a reseller or partner of MESPAS?

No. Norsetech Group is an independent service provider. We do not sell MESPAS; we build, audit and migrate the data that goes into it, in the format MESPAS imports.

Do you need a login to our MESPAS system?

No. We work from exports and from the MESPAS import template, so your live system is not touched.

What do you need from us to start?

The maker instruction manuals and parts lists for the vessel's equipment, the equipment list, and your MESPAS import template or an export of your current data. Where manuals are missing we tell you which equipment is affected rather than filling the gap with generic jobs.

Can you move our data from another PMS into MESPAS, or out of it?

Yes. We extract and clean the data from the current system, map it to the new platform's structure and deliver it in the new platform's import format, with the history carried across.

Working in MESPAS?

Send us the equipment list and your MESPAS import template. We reply with a scope for the work.
