Why fleets still struggle

The cost of how it’s done today

Galley compliance and provisioning tracked on paper give poor fleet visibility and make MGN 525 evidence a scramble at audit.

The traditional approach

Separate spreadsheets for budgets, temperature logs, and the crew shop, none of which reconcile.

Monday with WaterTight

What changes when this is under control

A catering module for budgets, purchases, and waste, with MGN 525 temperature and inspection compliance export, a crew shop, and dietary requirements.

Time back

Invoice capture and structured purchases post against budget instead of manual spreadsheet entry.

Less waste

Budget tracking and waste logging control provisioning spend and expose over-ordering.

Lower risk

MGN 525 temperature and inspection records export as ready evidence for food-safety audits.

Questions before you commit

Is MGN 525 supported?
Yes. Galley compliance includes MGN 525 temperature and inspection workflows with export for audit.
Does the crew shop use barcodes?
Yes. The crew shop supports barcode scanning, and bonded items can feed the FAL 3 ship's stores worksheet.
Can we capture invoices automatically?
Yes. Invoice OCR/LLM capture speeds recording purchases against the provision budget.
Does WaterTight certify food safety?
No. It records temperatures, inspections, and evidence to support MGN 525 and MLC catering duties, which remain the operator's responsibility.

Bring this pain to a demo
