The future of Maritime Singapore is guided by the Sea Transport Industry Transformation Map, and the Maritime Digitalisation Playbook (MDP) is a part of the efforts of the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA), Singapore Shipping Association (SSA), and Infocomm Media Development Authority.
SUPPORTING THE FUTURE OF MARITIME SINGAPORE
In 2020 and beyond, the maritime industry will be largely defined by increased disruptions and digitalisation, driven by the rise of disruptive technologies and a push towards greater digitalisation and innovation. Says Mr Kenneth Lim, Chief Technology Officer and Senior Director of MPA’s Innovation, Technology and Talent Division, “This has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 crisis, which underscored the importance of supply chain resilience in the face of global supply chain shocks. In this current climate of increased uncertainty, there remains a pertinent need for our maritime companies to continue their future-ready digitalisation efforts to remain efficient and competitive.”
In 2019, MPA and SSA formed the Circle of Digital InnOvators (CDO) network, supported by digital leaders, working towards realising the vision of Singapore as a Global Maritime Hub for Connectivity, Innovation and Talent. “To ensure Maritime Singapore stays ahead of the curve, MPA has been working with industry partners to leverage key digitalisation tools to support maritime companies. A natural extension to the partnership efforts between MPA and SSA, the MDP was developed as a diagnostic tool and step-by-step guide, particularly for small and medium enterprises, to formulate their digitalisation roadmaps,” explains Mr Lim.
