TURNIUM TECHNOLOGY GROUP SECURES CONTRACT WITH SEAFARER CONNECT FOR NEW CREWMATE LITE SERVICES
Turnium Technology Group Inc. has signed a new contract with Seafarer Connect valued at $77,000 over 24 months for its innovative CrewMate Lite services.
This agreement expands on the established partnership between Turnium's subsidiary, Claratti, and Seafarer Connect, further enhancing connectivity solutions for international seafarers. The CrewMate Lite is Claratti's third-generation portable Internet device, which weighs in at just over 3.5 kilograms. The CrewMate Lite can be transported by backpack or mounted to the wall of a ship and delivers the same high-performance Internet access as the company's Generation 1 and Generation 2 devices at one-third the weight.
"The Seafarer Connect project is dependent on reliable, fast and remotely managed mobile network equipment which must remain operational in some of the harshest conditions aboard ships and in ports throughout Australia. We are confident that the vital service we provide to some of the most vulnerable workers in the global supply chain is operating effectively at all times through the partnership we have with Claratti," said Robert Coombs, managing director of the Tas Bull Seafarers Foundation.
Doug Childress, global chief executive officer of Turnium Technology Group, added: "Our mission is to develop IT [information technology] and communication solutions that solve complex business problems, which was definitely the case when we began our journey with Seafarer Connect. To see them achieve their mission of providing vital connectivity to crews at Australian ports since 2022 has been nothing short of amazing. The CrewMate Lite services will allow us to offer more flexible and cost-effective connectivity options, enabling Seafarer Connect to reach even more vessels and crew members who desperately need these essential communication links."
Since the beginning of the partnership, the positive effects on seafarer welfare have been substantial. During the COVID-19 pandemic, when isolation at sea reached critical levels, the connectivity provided through this initiative played a crucial role in maintaining crew mental health and preventing tragic outcomes.
