A brand-new company has given itself one unique mission: to make mariners’ lives easier by helping them to organize the paperwork and supporting documents underpinning their credentials, ratings and licenses.
MM-SEAS is the first-ever software that automates the manual task of obtaining, tracking and renewing U.S. Coast Guard credentials. MM-SEAS not only eliminates paperwork processing errors, it promises to deliver “meaningful merchant mariner career guidance.”
