The integrated towage and pilotage operations platform — assisted bookings and order triaging, dispatch planning and resource allocation, live AIS/GPS execution tracking, crew rostering and tug maintenance — with tariff-rated Statements of Facts flowing straight into SAP S/4HANA. PPA compulsory-tug checks, MARINA certificate tracking and an immutable audit ledger are built in.

TugOS is built for pilotage teams in logistics. It is delivered under Outcome-as-a-Service: Xamun invests the build, deploys it on your infrastructure, and you pay per transaction the system processes.
TugOS carries the following regulatory and compliance surface, enforced in the workflow rather than documented beside it. The GraphIQ compliance layer keeps these rules current as they change.
Not a generic ERP with a jobs bolt-on. Every module is shaped around how harbour towage and pilotage really work.
Booking & assisted intake Customer self-service booking with an indicative tariff on the spot, plus AI-assisted email intake that turns a request into a draft order for your booking desk.
Advisory dispatch planning The allocation matrix reads the vessel and recommends tug count and minimum bollard pull — then filters the fleet to tugs that are available, suitable and in the right port.
Fleet scheduler (Gantt) Every tug and captain on a single timeline, with automatic conflict detection the moment a job overlaps a maintenance or bunkering window.
Live tracking & geofencing GPS tug positions fused with AIS ship targets on one operations map, with a geofence transit log that can auto-confirm a vessel arriving in port.
Captain & pilot field apps Mobile dispatch ticket, live execution clock and Statement of Facts for tug captains, plus a pilot coordinator — offline-capable, syncing when the signal returns.
Versioned tariff rate cards Rates tiered by boat type, gross-tonnage band and movement, with per-customer negotiated cards and port-specific compulsory-tug floors — every version stamped for audit.
SoF-driven billing → ERP Rate the signed Statement of Facts against the stamped rate-card version into a billing draft, approve in one click, and post it to your ERP — SAP S/4HANA out of the box — as a sales order.
Maintenance, bunkering & certs An owned-tug asset database with maintenance and bunkering windows, recurring service plans, and Certificate-of-Inspection and bollard-pull cert tracking so nothing sails expired.
Compliance & governance PPA compulsory-tug floors, MARINA certificate roster checks, affiliate subcontracting, role-based access for every workspace and an immutable audit ledger.
Real screens from the live demo you can open above. Your own deployment is a separate instance, branded and configured to your operation.
Stacked against the ways harbour towage operators run their business today.

Under Outcome-as-a-Service, with no upfront CAPEX. What you open above is a demo instance; what you buy is your own separate deployment — on your infrastructure, under your brand, source-available, and configured to how your operation actually works. Xamun invests the build, and you pay a per-transaction fee on what the system processes. A slow month is a small invoice; if it does not run, you do not pay.
Bring us one workflow and we will show you TugOS running it.
