Bolier Opts for Digital Inspections in Maritime Industry

Bolier, the specialist in the maintenance and repair of MaK and ABC marine engines, turbines, and propulsion systems, is a crucial player in the maritime industry. Their extensive expertise and services ensure ships' safe and efficient operation worldwide. Moreover, they play an essential role in managing the required paperwork and conducting inspections.

Wout Koopman, Project Manager, observes a growing demand for digitalisation in the maritime industry. How is this trend addressed at Bolier?
