The MACS3.NET Loading Computer System is a computer controlled loading system for commercial vessels, developed by Software Solutions Department of INTERSCHALT maritime systems AG. Prior to September 01, 2007 it was offered by Seacos Computersysteme & Software GmbH.

MACS3 consists of computer hardware and a range of software, which aim to minimize the operational load while loading a vessel, and to prevent any hard limitations from being breached.

  2. ABS Guidance Notes for the Application of Ergonomics to Marine Systems
  3. BV Rules for the Classification of Steel Ships, Pt C, Ch 3, Sec 3 "COMPUTER BASED SYSTEMS"
  4. IACS Recommendation on Loading Instruments (No 48)

Software structure
The software of MACS3.NET Loading Computer System includes the MACS3 Basic Loading Program, performing functions of Categories A and B according to the ISO 16155:2006 and (optionally) a range of additional modules and programs, performing functions of Category C:

  • BELCO Container Management Module
  • DAGO Dangerous Goods Modules
  • StowMAN Stowage Planning
  • SEALASH Lashing Module
  • MIXCARGO General Cargo Module
  • RoRo Module
  • Crane Operation Module
  • Bulk Carrier Modules

What is fio term in shipping?

FIOS (FREE IN, OUT, STOWED):Freight rates quoted on a FIOS basis specifically exclude all aspects relating to cargo handling operations. The ship is only responsible for expenses arising as a result of the ship calling into the port, i.e. tugs, pilots and light dues etc. Another very important consideration when booking cargo on FIOS terms is that the ship does not bear any responsibility for the speed of loading or discharging. Usually the rate agreed includes a fixed "free" period of time for loading/discharging operations, after which time a daily demurrage is incurred.

Can there be something better than Hedge System?

Yes,where there is a will there is a way! Nehru described in his Discovery of India, the 'British Hedge' which became the main revolting issue in spite of having tolerated for more than two centuries. Hedge system works till the people have been 'sleepy'. Thereafter, it needs 'Active Indulgence' with the people. Hedge system breeds indifference, the Active Indulgence, togetherness. But, everything has a price tag. Active Indulgence would expose the weaknesses and lure them out of their comfortable cocoon of the 'Victorian Sedentary Life' (VSL). Instead of keeping the Levels deceptively horizontal and promoting someone somewhere all of a sudden one day without convincing the rest of the team-mates, there can be 'Fluid Hierarchy' with 'HOD System' (Head of the Department).In the hedge system no one takes the full responsibility, obligation or morality. It looks like a war. May have been justified in the post war trauma phase, but it's more than six decades now - 'break dance' evolving into 'dirty dance'. P.S.- Wrote to bbc.co.uk on 8.4.08
