Webinar Recap and Key Takeaways
Ripple Operations hosted a live webinar spotlighting our Roster Planning Module, featuring a special client demo from Viking Line. The session provided an inside look at how the module supports day-to-day maritime operations and ensures smart, compliant scheduling for crews.
We were thrilled to welcome Peter Sjöström from Viking Line, who walked attendees through a live demo of the product in action. It was eye-opening to see how seamlessly the system flags violations in real time—whether it’s exceeding maximum work hours or breaching rest requirements. That kind of automation not only protects crew wellbeing but also helps companies like Viking Line reduce compliance risk and improve operational efficiency.
We also heard from Sigrid Kviteberg from Ripple Operations, who gave a brief overview of Ripple and our mission to modernize maritime HR. The session drew attendees from across the industry.
